Essential improvements
Special K - FFXV Mini-Mod
- Allows users to block certain input devices to prevent the game from hitching every time it loads the icon for another input device.
- Lowers the Steam API overhead of the game; provides more stable frame render times and shorter loading times on certain hardware configurations.
- Includes options that fix thread scheduling options in some threads, that causes starvation on graphics/audio threads.
Game data
- The Steam and Origin versions do not respect a relocated Documents folder unless symlinks are used.
