FFVII Rebirth Unloaded Textures???
I'm getting great performance in terms of fps and load times, but for every single zone I load into there's always a good amount of objects that just haven't completely loaded in and look jagged/blurry. Bumping graphics settings up doesn't really help.
My specs:
i5-8400
AMD 6600
16 gb ddr4 ram
7300MB/s SSD

It's a LoD issue that can by fixed by installing a mod that lets you edit the engine.ini file

You can fix the following pop ins:
terrain (rocks, etc)
foliage
building textures
shadow distances

keep in mind, fixing those has a huge performance impact. I lost about 20 FPS on my RTX 4090 doing these fixes, but my FPS was still over 70+ at 4k with them. The optimization of this game is garbage on both the ps5 and PC. So they cut corners by terrible LoD settings to improve performance.

However, what CAN NOT be fixed is this:
There's something hardcoded in the game to unload textures behind the camera. So even if you push the LoD WAY out and spin around fast, there will still be pop in. I have not found an engine.ini setting that could possibly change this. Well I actually did, but it has no effect.

A lot of people claim the pop in is due to slow SSD read speeds, which is isn't. I'm playing on a SATA SSD as my C drive is my only nvme drive and it's too small for games. My SATA SSD has a read speed of 540MB/s, and I've never had any issues in this game, or in any other game. Windows can cache data to system ram (and I have 64GB of RAM). So once texture files have been read, they stay in my RAM and can be quickly copied to GPU VRAM faster than any Gen 1-4 SSD could read.

That said, I just ordered a 2 TB Samsung 970 EVO (my mobo won't support anything faster) to shove into my Gen 3 22110 slot that I have free.

It's getting near the time to get a new mobo and CPU (and a gen 5 nvme) and drop my RTX 4090 into it.

First thing you should do is put 32GB RAM in, then see how it is. Same goes for almost any 2024 AAA title. I still get a small amount of this on my 2080 super for a couple games including rebirth, but after going from 16 to 32GB RAM all my games got much better in terms of rendering and stutter.

Square has BIG issues with their games and textures.
I play it on a 4090 with 7800 x3d and 64gb of ram so I have no ram issues anywhere.
Half the game has textures that to call horrible is a huge compliment.

You have this bro? i have almost your space specs, just gpu and ram below (32 and 4080s)https://streamable.com/qze8pl

I am to be honest with you, you run basicly on the minimum settings of the minimum settings for this game, your hardware is Listed as minimum 1080p 30 FPS settings.
What can you except of a intel 8400 and a Rx6600 and 16gb ram in 2025 game releases ?

you know when i had 16gb ram ? with DDR3, with DDR4 i had 32gb and with DDR5 i have 64gb and Ram got cheaper and cheaper each generation, so why even botter to upgrade your ram, Your GPU is the weakest Entry level card from the year 2021, your CPU is entry level from 2017 what do you except this hardware to run the newest game releases as good as games in 2017 ?

Sure, but im not entirely certain why im getting consistently 60fps on mostly high settings 1080p and my only issue is texture loading? It doesn't seem to be a hardware issue.

It is always a hardware issue if your textures are not loading very well, to understand why is that the entry level GPU's have a very low Bit Bus and this is the reason why the textures are loading so damn slow in if you increase texture detail or anything else with cards that was not made for it then you risk of texture bugs or sability problems or not stable frames and so on. of course there are games that are not good optimazed on hardware itself but this game is, and this game require good hardware to run good, i dont get it why people complain that they have to upgrade ther hardware at some point in ther life to play specific games.

This happens on the PS5 version too, just a weird issue with how the game streams foliage

Also, Steam ♥♥♥♥♥♥ up your link and blocks it as being malicious because of the missed space between the closing parentheses and the URL

Nop, I modified the engine file to increase and improve the lod.
For the most part the pop up is minimal although still present.
The author of this thread has indicated that this post answers the original topic.

hey so the pretentious commentary isnt really necessary, i just finished upgrading my gpu and ssd to the point where bottlenecking my cpu would be at a minimum. And frankly speaking the most modern/bleeding edge computer parts are wildly unaffordable, unnecessary, and don't have good value. This is not a hardware issue.
Hi everyone, found a simple fix via a nexusmod. Just need to drag and drop the unzipped files into the corresponding folder (filepath is in the description of the mod page).

Best bet is to buy a new gaming PC next cyber Monday/black Friday. That's my plan. In the meantime if you have extra cash, putting 32GB RAM will hold over an older PC, like mine, until next cyber Monday. Or at least close to it. The RAM upgrade is like 40-50 bucks at most.

Part of it is. 16GB RAM is not enough to run your RAM efficiently. Do whatever, download whatever files, if you are complaining about AAA titles with 16GB RAM the first thing you should do is put 32 in. Everyone knows this. Then continue fixing issues if they still persist. Your page file is exceeding maximum physical backed RAM and needs more physical overhead. The game uses 10-12 GB RAM and your OS will use around 6 GB. Game recommended specs DO NOT INCLUDE RAM for your OS. Meaning if it takes 11(game)+6(os and other) your page file is going to hit above 20GB in alot of cases and you need the back that with physical memory to get the most performance.

Just install it on a decent ssd. It worked for me.
