Improve your FPS in Rust! By The Only Raichū~
  • 1. Go to Steam library
  • 2. Right-click the game
  • 3. Click on properties
  • 4. Under the tab General, go to 「Set Launch Options」
Type in one of the 3 lines, try on your own which works best for you!

-force-d3d11-no-singlethreaded -force-driver-type-warp -force-gfx-direct
Note for -force-driver-type-warp: This for some cause menu lag 1FPS - for me doesn't, try out on your own to find out.

-cpuCount=4 -exThreads=8 -high
note cpuCount number depends on your cores, my has 4. Threads is individual, for AMD: amount of cores = amount of threads. For INTEL: Amount of threads = 2*Cores. (4 cores -> 8 threads).
[Do note that not all Intel processors have hyperthreading (1 physical core = 2 logical cores)]

-high -maxMem=8192 -malloc=system -force-feature-level-11-0 -winxp (recommended)
maxMem number depends on your amount of RAM. I have 8GB, so number is 8192. This works on every system 100%.
NOTE: About the -winxp, this is so that the program runs in winXP mode. This doesn't mean that you have winXP.
For the people who still don't know: 1024 1gb, 1536 1.5gb, 2048 2gb,4096 4gb, 8192 8gb, 16384 16gb, 20480 20gb, 24576 24gb, 32768 32gb

Confirm change and ready to go!

Note because so people ask: It costs nothing to try out.
Please don't be butthurt if you still cannot play Rust. You can't get something out of nothing. This is only to improve for those who can already play Rust at some point, to improve their FPS slightly. Not to make a 10FPS mode to playable 50FPS!


Additionalt stuff for settings:
-put draw distance on 1,500
-shader level 200+
-object quality 50+
-tree quality 25+
-graphics level 1 (fast)
-grass quality 30+
-lower the resolution can give huge FPS boost

This will give your game about 10 to 20 FPS more in the game, this made playable for me in Rust!
And always remember when in Rust:

M4NGO87 probably not lol, seems like you have an ancient laptop. 4gb RAM is barely suitable for regular daily use of the computer - so don't expect to play many games on that
