Tahaan Posted August 4, 2020 Share Posted August 4, 2020 OK, so touch wood... my FPS is consistently about 60 now. With A18 I had around 30-40 FPS. I'm not a much of a gamer and was willing to live with that... And then A19 dropped and I got a nice little boost, it was closer to the 40-45 FPS mark. Then after I think the second update it suddenly became dismally bad. I saw lots of reports on bad FPS so I just left it at that and trusted that whatever TFP "fixed" would get solved before A19 stable came out. Today I decided to actually read some of the FPS threads (I avoid these because these tend to be about people's own very specific situations) and I saw some suggestions to just drop terrain quality to low as that is often a quick fix. So I decided I'd give that a bash. But one of the posts had specs fairly similar to mine, and I decided to go over all the settings and compare them. The very first item to check was vsync => off. I always have it off, but being meticulous I decided to check it in any case, and what have you, my VSync had somehow gotten turned on! I don't know WHEN this happened or why it took me so long to check this, but since that is often an issue for me, I stopped at this point: I then went with the following: 1. Select the "High quality" profile. 2. Set Terrain to "Low" 3. VSync off as it should be. 4. Motion blur OFF 5. DoF OFF And for the first time ever I get FPS over 50 with 60-ish being consistent now and sometimes momentarily as high as 80! I'm of course quite happy with this result so decided to share! My computer specs, for what it's worth - I don't have a "real" computer, only a Laptop. xD MSI Leopard 8RE i7 8750 H 24 GB ram First drive is 256 GB M2 Second Drive is 1TB SSD Nvidia GeForce 1060 6GB I bought it as a workstation for software development. Like I said I'm no gamer, but I do enjoy 7 Days, I just die a lot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gideon Posted August 4, 2020 Share Posted August 4, 2020 I find I can run everything at high/ultra, turn texture resolution to half, and things are buttery smooth. Oh, and motion blur to off. That can go right to hell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CinnamonWombat Posted August 5, 2020 Share Posted August 5, 2020 Ha!!! I agree in regards to the motion blur. It makes me nauseous... I always have it off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
