📋 About This Mod

Fallout 4 performance ini for medium or high end pcs to get max fps in the game

I made these settings personally for myself so that in Fallout 4 I could have over 100 fps with a lot of mods. Everything unnecessary is turned off, which can cause drops fps, but textures and shadows are still on high settings.

Tweaked LOD settings (but still like on high settings)

Disabled SSAO/HBAO

Disabled Depth of Field

Disabled Blur

Slightly reduced decals and particles

A bit reduced Grass Distance by 11%

Disabled Rain Occlusion

Disabled Volumetric Lighting (Halo effect)

Disabled Godrays

Improved Detailed Shadows from Objects

Shadow Map Resolution still 2048 cause 1k looks much worse and less darkening, especially in the distance

Shadow settings are set to high but shadow filters are set to medium

Textures High settings

uGridsToLoad is not touched, i.e. 5

Gamepad disabled

UI color changed from green to light yellow

Fullscreen enabled

Support any language

Never run the launcher because it will reset all settings!

if you have 2 graphic cards, for example Intel and AMD/NVIDIA maybe you need to open Fallout4Prefs and set  sD3DDevice=  you can copy it from your Fallout4Prefs

If you have a 2k or 4k monitor set your resolution manually open Fallout4Prefs.ini using Notepad

For TAA you need to download TAA Flicker Fixer
