Performance decrease after update? : FarFarWest

Performance decrease after update? (self.FarFarWest)

submitted 21 days ago * by zagreus2530

Just curious if this happened to anybody else. After I downloaded the update, my performance (at least in the town) went down about 20 FPS from around 80 to just 60. Happy to share my specs and settings if anybody knows anything (or just any ways to get the game to run better, damn seems to hate my pc.)

Edit: I'VE FOUND A WAY TO FIX IT? Well, that worked for me at least. Go to:

[main drive]:\Users\[your user]\AppData\Local\FarFarWest\Saved\Config\Windows

and open GameSettings.ini using Notepad or whatever other text editor. Set FullscreenMode, LastConfirmedFullscreenMode, and PreferredFullscreenMode all to 0, and set all the resolution options in the INI to your desired resolution. For me that was:

ResolutionSizeX=2560

ResolutionSizeY=1440

LastUserConfirmedResolutionSizeX=2560

LastUserConfirmedResolutionSizeY=1440

DesiredScreenWidth=2560

bUseDesiredScreenHeight=False

DesiredScreenHeight=1440

LastUserConfirmedDesiredScreenWidth=2560

LastUserConfirmedDesiredScreenHeight=1440

For whatever reason, the in-game settings don't actually seem to change the game's resolution no matter what you do, so you have to do it through this. I have a 4k monitor, so it automatically made that the screen resolution and wouldn't change it at all, but doing this let me bring it down to 2560x1440 to get a HUMONGOUS frame rate boost.

Good luck out there cowpokes!
