I don’t know if I am the only one, but my experience with this game so far ain’t that smooth (performance wise, the gameplay itself is wonderful). So I was wondering if anyone have any tips to help improve the game (especially concerning fps-drops and slow texture rendering)
P.s If my rig’s specs are of help in you helping me, here it is: Quad-core Intel 3.4Ghz 8Gb Ram (planning on adding 8 more soon) Gtx 1060 6Gb VRam
i5 4690K here. Changing the energy options from balanced to high performnce helped me a lot.
More RAM (8 -> 16) opens my Savedgames window faster and i was able to see the new water carriers in Rattay, how they do their jobs
I found a tweak guide of some sort advicing to add following lines to user.cfg file located in game install folder.

Most important lines are
sys_streaming_CPU = 4
sys_budget_sysmem = 16000
sys_budget_videomem = 4000
r_TexturesStreamingMaxRequestedMB = 500
Where you need to change your own settings according to your hardware. For example I have 4 core CPU, 16GB RAM, 4GB of video memory and game installed on SSD drive that has read performance of about 500MB/s. I can definitely notice improvement with this user.cfg file. Lastly you need to add “+exec user.cfg” to launch parameters. In Epic Launcer go to settings and expand Kingdom Come. In Steam select game properties -> launch options. Hope this helps.
