Fallout Stutter Remover version 4. 0. 7 by SkyRanger-1 Forum thread: http://www.bethsoft.com/bgsforums/index.php?showtopic=1069833 TESnexus page: http://www.fallout3nexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=8886 This is an FOSE plugin, and it will only work with FOSE 1. 2 beta 1 or later. This will only work with Fallout 3 version 1. 7. ==================================== 0. Contents: ==================================== 0. Contents 1. Overview 2. Installing 3. Uninstalling 4. Common Settings Changes 5. All Settings 6. Version History 7. How This Works 8. Credits ==================================== 1. Overview: ==================================== This plugin makes Fallout 3 not \"stutter\" as much, and generally feel smoother or perform better. It prevents or mitigates a number of issues related to stuttering and framerates, and can reduce the frequency of stutter related crashes. For more detail, see Section 7: How This Works. Note however that this generally will not fix anything wrong with your drivers, hardware, or codecs - if you have fundamental reasons for for poor performance, this probably won\'t help much. This is a port of the Oblivion Stutter Remover (OSR) to work for Fallout. So far, it does not work as well as the original Oblivion Stutter Remover, but it should help some. This should be compatible with everything. The only caveat is that mods that monitor FPS will not be able to accurately measure FPSes outside of the target range set by this plugin (10 to 30 by default). In fact, even FPSes that merely come close to FSR targets may be difficult to measure. ==================================== 2. Installing: ==================================== The installation process is: 1. A. If the version of FSR you are installing came as a .zip file, simply drag the \"Data\" folder from the zip to your Oblivion folder. 1. B. If the version of FSR you are installing did NOT come as a .zip file then you need to place the file sr_Fallout_Stutter_Remover.dll in to your Fallout\\Data\\fose\\plugins folder. If you don\'t have such a folder, create it. If you had an older version of FSR installed, delete its ini file (Data\\fose\\plugins\\sr_Fallout_Stutter_Remover.ini). If there is no existing FSR ini file then FSR will generate a new ini file with settings appropriate for your version the next time you run Fallout. ==================================== 3. Uninstalling: ==================================== Simply delete the sr_Fallout_Stutter_Remover.dll file from your Data\\fose\\plugins folder. Moving that file to another directory would also be sufficient. ==================================== 4. Common Settings Changes ==================================== In general, FSR attempts to have decent default settings so that users are not required to monkey with them. However, there are a few settings where the default values might not be appropriat
