Ways to Increase FPS?
Now, I imagine the reason why I usually have bad frames is because of my Intel Graphics Card. I've checked online for ways to increase my frames, but all of them are old and tell you to use an outdated dead mod. Any suggestions you have for me?

Pretty much everything in this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CdV8RdWyn-0
LC Macro packs, no post processing, etc. All of these together might be a bit overkill depending on how bad your computer actually is.

Thanks! Looking into that now...
Also, while I'm here, are there any ways to let Payday 2 have more memory? It crashed at one point due to it using the last of its memory. I have 8GB RAM, so I think that's enough to work with.

nope.... no way you can allocate more memory to it manually. Your only choice is to set the priority to high.... One suggestion (if you're using a pc) is buy at least a dedicated gpu.... there are many cheap ones out there.

Sadly, I only have my trashtop to play games on. It would be decent for games if it wasn't an Intel Graphics Card. Certainly don't have enough cash (nor will I get enough cash) to buy a gaming PC either.

If your willing to sacrifice outlines for a huge fps boost, try this mod.
https://modworkshop.net/mydownloads.php?action=view_down&did=16917

Version with enabled outlines, but gives less fps.

These mods require BLT, make sure to read the installation section before downloading BLT

I actually got the outlines on mod installed already. My game should run smoother now (haven't checked yet, will see tomorrow), but even if it isn't fully better I have options now. BTW, the main issues revolved around partly just being on skype with friends and cluttered map environments. Thanks guys for the suggestions, hooray for options!

So is that "trashtop" a desktop or a laptop? If a desktop, you can get something like a used GTX 260 or AMD 4850 for 10 bucks. Those would play games like 10 times faster than the integrated intel gpu.

As MAGES. hinted at, something you may want to consider is setting the game priority to high.

(Windows:) To do so, open the task manager, right click PAYDAY 2's process, and press "Go to details". Right click it yet again, press "Set Priority", and set it to High. I don't recommend setting it to Realtime, because it- apparently- can slow down not only other applications, but Windows services as well, resulting in mouse delays and the like.

Not too much of a buff, but you gotta take what you can get, right? Hope that helps a bit, either way...

there are mods and a guide i made up recently it made me go from like 15-20 fps to 30-45
Kaburii Jul 4, 2017 @ 6:15pm 
Laptop, Startt, sadly. Didn't think about the word desktop also existing.
Shadroch, I would certainly prefer it if it kept the high priority after game relaunch, is there any way to do that that you can think of?
And Deadrop, thanks for the guide, I'll be sure to look into it if I need many more frames. I'm... decent at the moment, just again, cluttered environments like the safehouse are slow.

I haven't used Windows 7 in quite a long time, so forgive me for any ineptitude in that regard, but I'm pretty sure that in the same menu that you see "Set Priority", there's another option that says "Save Priority" or something of the sort. This works with win7, and I think for Vista as well. Not sure about XP.

As for Windows 8 and 10, you'd have to use an application to do this automatically. I can't recommend any because I've never needed one, given my computer is avid, to say the least.

Sorry, but good luck!
