Low FPS in Aberration and low memory doesn't change anything

[Scrunor Δ]

So I started playing Aberration (I know I'm very late) and my FPS in some areas are not great, between 20-25 FPS. So I wanted to fix that by using the "low memory" option which should give you a perfomance boost (It worked for me in the past on other maps, I got like 20-30 FPS more), however it doesn't change anything. The FPS stay the same and I don't know why that is. I checked the driver options of my graphics card (I have a RX 470), but there doesn't seem to be anything wrong there either. Does anyone know why low memory doesn't make a difference?

Aberration has more light sources to calculate. Turn off shadows

All shadows are on low and distance field shadowing is also turned off.

I used to need this little gem on my old laptop - despite already having shadows on low and field shadowing off. Press TAB and type this in:

r.shadowquality 0

When entering the game on AB, my old laptop gave me a 15-18FPS counter on the Steam FPS meter (upper right), using this, it went up to 25-30FPS steady. Go figure.

Thanks for the advice, I already used it. Normally they range from 30-45, but they still go down to 20-25 in certain areas, especially the Crab/Spino river.

Oh yeah. AB is a monster to most GPU/PC's. My Ryzen 7 2700x, 1660ti and 16GB can dish out 50-70 FPS constantly on Rag, The Center, Scorched, Extinction and Valguero... The Island, is weird, I get from 30-70, but mostly hovers around 40ish... and AB... well, on all Epic, I still get 35-50ish, but there's a few instances I can get 25-ish dips here and there... but it's DAMN GORGEOUS!

I've built my base in the blue zone, with an easy drop in Rock Drake country just nearby... and I just... yeah. I sometimes gaze at the area for no reason. XD

It's quite common for aberration to perform substantially slower.

Nice! Yeah, I turned up the graphics too, since it doesn't seem to make a difference if I lower them. The 20-25 drops are really annoying, but it can't be helped I guess.

I noticed that too. I'm just wondering why lowering the graphics doesn't give me a performance boost. Only the "r.shadowquality 0" command does.

I hear people claim that it is the amount of light sources that makes the difference. This is superficially plausible because one can see light sources from the mushroom trees the crystal patches each individual aberrant Dino the water itself in the Blue Zone and pink Zone Etc.

Thank you so much for this! From 30fps to 60fps!
