How to Change FPS limit (Uncap FPS)

IMPORTANT:

The following lines are repeated a few times in the file, so you MUST change it all to False and 0 in order to FULLY Unlock the Frames Per Second limit.

Remove Motion Blur

I only recommend turning off Motion Blur if you run this game at 60fps or higher.

Better Textures Resolution

FIX Stuttering

[...]As a matter of fact, increase it anyway. Suggested value: 560 on high-end GPU, 280 on others. Defragmenting your drive might also help with stuttering/small freezes.

TimeBetweenPurgingPendingKillObjects=10



I set it to 20 and now I got the stutter every 20 seconds...I then bumped it up to 3600 (1 hour) and haven't seen it since.



Who knows what will happen after an hour...lol



Hope that helps someone, it was making me nuts

Antialiasing (MSAA) [Working fine on my AMD GPU*]

*UPDATE*

Originally posted by SKINNIE: The DLC broke the MSAA Antialiasing[/b] for me. Turns everything really dark to the point of being unplayable. Have to switch bAllowD3D9MSAA in the OLSystemSettings.ini back to False.

Su**s cause MSAA was working so well for me before I bought the DLC. :(

*UPDATE 2*

Originally posted by chillgreg: [...]this setting causes strange (unplayable) lighting:

bAllowD3D9MSAA=True

Set back to FALSE, no problems Originally posted by Eggahertz: The culprit for this appears to be the setting AllowSkin=TRUE (located in OLSystemSettings.ini), which is enabled when effects are set to high/very high. Changing this setting to FALSE under the heading that corresponds to your effects setting ([SystemSettingsBucket4] for high and [SystemSettingsBucket5] for very high) eliminates the lighting problem, although the artifacts from before persist.



Please note that I don't know what the AllowSkin setting actually does (I couldn't tell the difference one way or the other), only that it doesn't play nice with MSAA.

*Works good on AMD and NVIDIA (I think)

[nVidia Users Only] Antialiasing (SGSSAA) (CalinTM)

Originally posted by CalinTM:

To use SGSSAA, you need a nvidia GPU and follow these steps from here:



This does require a powerful system!



- Download Nvidia Inspector

- Open up the program

- Open up the Profile settings ( Tool button on the right side of driver version )

- Open the Outlast profile ( if you havn't created it yet, look in the previous section )

- Paste 0x000010C1 in the "Antialiasing Combatibility" section

- Set "Antialiasing - Mode" to: Override any application setting

- Set "Antialiasing - Setting" to: 2x [2x Multisampling]

- Set "Antialiasing - Transparency Supersampling" to: 2x Sparse Grid Supersampling

- Set "Lod Bias" to: -0.500 for 2x

- -1.000 for 4x

- -1.500 for 8x



Note: you can set it to 4x or even 8x if your system is powerful enough, always be sure that the values in multisampling and supersampling match up.





Should look like this:

"Taken from my thread...



Also if you want to enable Physx on the GPU instead of CPU, modify this to False

bDisablePhysXHardwareSupport=False (found in OLEngine.ini)"

Note: Changing battery life is only recommended if you are stuck somewhere or you ran out of batteries :).

Modify Grain Filter

Note:*I think it does not remove the film grain at all*

Thanks for this Awesome Game :)___________________________________________________________1.Locate the folder which contains the files we are going to edit:2.Open "" with a text editor (such as Notepad++) and look for "DefaultFOV=" and "RunningFOV=", then change the values to whatever you want.Please note that 110º in this game looks like 90º in others, like Call of duty.Example:--------↓↓↓↓: When you look through your camera you have a different FOV. To change it you have to edit the following lines:CamcorderNVMaxFOV=83.0CamcorderMaxFOV=83.0▶ ↓Just replace 83 with your normal fov, if your defaultfov is 110 then :↓Open "" and look for these lines:bSmoothFrameRate=TRUEMinSmoothedFrameRate=22MaxSmoothedFrameRate=62▶ ↓If you want no FPS limit do this:↓(0 means UNLIMITED, you can change it to whatever you want)Open "", change this:MotionBlur=TrueMotionBlurPause=TrueMotionBlurSkinning=1AllowRadialBlur=TrueMaxFilterBlurSampleCount=16MobilePostProcessBlurAmount=32.0▶ ↓To this:↓-------------------------the above method doesn't work for you, you can try this modded file made by LoneWolfDon (just replace the necessary files): https://www.dropbox.com/s/i0t6dhppi8mkio8/OLSystemSettings.zip Thx to LONEWOLFDONIn "" look for these lines and change 1024 and 256 to the desired values:MaxProcBuildingLODColorTextureSize=1024MaxProcBuildingLODLightingTextureSize=256▶ ↓Example:↓- Go to "", under "" Edit "Poolsize=", and set it to 280 at least: (mine is at 1024 = 1 GB VRAM (I have 3GB)Examples: (just test)..........................................................................................................- In the same file (), look for "TimeBetweenPurgingPendingKillObjects=".
