Optimising my game/optimized_graphic_presets update 1.70

Hi,

I currentle have ± 15hours int he game and at least half of it has been spend switching and tweaking and fiddeling with the settings to try and get consistent fps…

I run a i5-8600k @5hz with a gtx 1080ti and 16gigs of RAM on a m.2 SSD with 2500mb+ write/read. get similar fps

drops on low in 1080p as on ultra in 1440p

(btw : I have tested the game with an i7-8700k @5ghz from a friend of mine but this changes nothing)

I’m well aware the game has been poorly coded and uses the performance unfriendly cry engine but i’m hoping

someone can help to get this running better…

I’ve fallen upon a mod that apparently should help with both the graphics as fps but it doesn’t seem to work for me…

Its called optimized_graphic_presets update 1.70, it should work by simply extracting the files in my game directory

but when i do that and overwrite the files, nothing changes.

i boot the game, the new graphic settings do not appear and there is no change whatsoever.

I’m starting to get desperate… if i don’t get it to run a little better its going to be an uninstall which is sad because

the story was getting to me and i’d really would like to be able to enjoy this game.

Any help is very welcome

hi what a great game

I am using an 8700k with an RTX 2080. This setup is very similar to yours and here is what my configuration is
WQHD 1440p, no v-sync, HD textures
Starting with Ultra High preset, only reducing Shadows, Shaders, and Post processing to “Very High”. Motion Blur turned off (I don’t like it). and very important, you have to run in Full Screen mode (framless is not running as smooth)
I usually have 60-80fps with drops into the 40s in Rattay in indoors

I don’t get it. i just re-downbloaded the mod, re-extracted it to the game folders, re-overwiritten all files , boot up the game , no differeence in settings

KCapture kc1

I get similar performance but 40fps indoor will not do for me… this also happens on 1080p. personalmly it breaks immersion too much for me :frowning:

The medium settings were there because i had reset the game to default settings. the thing is i installed the mod, have overwritten all the files it asked to overwrite but ingame i do not see the settings like you show in your video. (tree point lightning and so on just don’t exist)
the mod doesn’t seem to have any impact on my game. Is there anything i should activate to see those settings? or should they be present the moment i start the game?

hi what a great game

Got it to work :slight_smile: for some reason did the file not extract into the mods map. the file that was in there was a different version found on nexus which i installed some day’s ago. remving that file and manually replacing the file with the correct one did the trick! thx a lot for the help i’m going to check it out right now!

What a world of difference!!! game runs 10x smoother and looks better! many thanks!

Glad you got it,good job.

I’m afraid i just need a little more of your help… the settings don’t seem to save when i close the game and restart… how can i fix this?

Figured it out. was using the 1.70 version not the 1.71. updated it and it works like a charm! gg and kerep up the good work :slight_smile:

is there any chance someone still has the files for version 1.71?
it got deleted of nexusmods.

Can you pm me the 1.71 files please. Forgot to save it when i wiped my pc and now stuck with 1.70 that doesn’t save my settings.
