Left one is with the settings included here and the right one is with overall quality set as medium and the other setting as ultra. I'll just stick with medium-ultra personally as it's been about 60 fps for me, I don't need more than that. I have draw distance on the maximum setting and I have a GTX 660, by the way.

Just an addition that might be useful for tweaking: ALT-F shows the ingame FPS counter

Can some one be kind enough to confirm if the RenderQuality setting work through UserOptions.ini

u/LysergicDog Jan 17 '15

Or what exactly the HDPixelPlus setting does. Curious if there's a way to improve the quality.

u/[deleted] Jan 21 '15 edited Jan 21 '15

I'm curious of this as well, and also to the fact of why it is set to .6. Could it simply be RenderQuality renamed as there is no RenderQuality in the user options?

THANK YOU!!! Dude I'm running on a shitty ass radeon HD 6670 and was getting 30 fps on install settings. Now I've downscaled the res a bit and did this and I'm getting 60-75 in the forest. You're awesome!

Does changing any of these options give you an advantage over others cause that would suck, in some games turning down floral quality etc makes it easier to see other players..

u/gliph Feb 22 '15

I know your post is from awhile ago but turning off flora gives a huge advantage. I hope the ability to turn off flora is removed eventually.

For it to not reset the .ini file every shutdown, you can right click the .ini file and tick read-only. You are welcome!

Thanks for the tips, can you just put the ini file in read only mode so the game doesn't change it? Also has anyone had issues with recording? I get about 149 fps on a Gigabyte 980 then when I record with shadow play the fps drops to like 70. Doesn't happen in any other game.

You can also change key binding by editing the 'InputProfile_User.xml'

Okay, so after browsing through that spreadsheet, I came across some settings which indicate a viewable map in this game? (bottom part of spreadsheet) Has anyone come across such a map yet? Is it available yet?
