Give that one a try for sure.
...from a website where every single game in world is listed with the same "optimization" guide.
I don´t know what you mean, sorry. I just wanted to share what has worked for me. It may help someone. It was the first time I visited that website and I am sure that you can fine the same information in other places...
The list of 17 different things is what worked for me. I skipped steps 8 and 13.
I apologize if my neassage was confusing.
Other than that, I just tested this and a new game definitely feels smoother. More fps, a little less beautiful graphics (which can be changed back though bit by bit). Loaded up a savegame with the Metropolis Achievement, and I still can't go over normal speed and having major hickups. To describe, when I go to time x4 I have about 0.5 second of smooth gameplay followed by 1 second of freeze. So not all is good after that, but it definitely helps.
The same command line argument working for different games built with entirely unrelated game engines? Have you people tried like.. using your brain?
It looks like that desperate attention-seeking "performance-guide" master is back, under different user name? That's so pathetic it makes me sad...
PS: can't resist to be mean when some people actively make the Internet worse by multiplying information noise and making it harder for others to search for actual solutions.
The younger gamers will probably come up with these stuff for ever, how will they know without experience. Not less people think the earth is flat because of one youtube troll. I feel sorry for them. Schools need to learn how to analyze things and factcheck them, even more then learn anything else. Because the internet has all the infos, also the wrong ones.
And what Niks wrote, these guides often makes things worse.
It works for one game, I believe, and then it became a mythical "fix all stuff" kind of thing.
