LOW FPS??? (Help please :D )

[Why Do You Struggle?]

Ok so I just recently bought this game ( and I am over the recommended specs i think , even though my graphics card aint that good till i get a new one) but whenever i try to play in 1920x1080 I get Massive FPS drops , going from 15-20 (and this occures most of the time) but when i play on 1280x720 i get barely any drops , I play with all settings maxed out (other than resolution which i want to do) so if anyone can recommend anything to help me i would be Thankful :)

Turn 8x MSAA off, that just eats all of your VRAM for no reason.

Also use Untitled Project X and run the game in fullscreen mode (by pressing Alt+Enter).

Those two things should get you up to solid 30 all the time.

Okay Ill tray that ^_^ thanks so much ! , and can i uninstall project x if something goes wrong?? , Seriously thanks though :D ill try it!

[Kaldaien]

Yes, you just delete 2 DLL files and it's uninstalled. It doesn't modify any game files.

Okay ill give it a shot! thank you so much for your help ^_^ i appreciate it

Ok so i just downloaded the mod and pressed alt+enter to go fullscreen but the slowdown seemed the same (i turned the MSAA of also) any ideas?

[Kaldaien]

Keep turning MSAA, Post-Processing Anti-Aliasing and SSAO down. I don't know what GPU you have, but it's not cutting the mustard. You're probably seriously underestimating the actual GPU horsepower required to play at max settings.

ok yeah well im getting a new entire computer in july , i just wanna play this before then lol , andf ill try that XD , Do you know any settings i can turn down that will not make a difference ( really) to graphics but will improve performance?

[Kaldaien]

SSAO and Post-Processing Anti-Aliasing make no difference image quality wise, but a big one performance wise.

[Why Do You Struggle?]

Allright ill turn them down :) thank you . One last question ( sorry to keep bothering you ) but do you know what resolution the ps3 version of ffx Hd Played in ? was it 720p or 1080p?

[Kaldaien]

1080p, but it didn't have anti-aliasing or anything like that. The textures on it were roughly equivalent to Medium in the PC version.

This is the PS4 version of the game, ported to PC.

[Why Do You Struggle?]

Ok thanks :) so if i turn off SSAO And Anti aliasing i should be running at equivalent to the ps3? ^_^ thank you for your time !

[Kaldaien]

I think the unsharp filter is also something unique to the PS4 version. I don't think that makes a big performance difference though.

[Why Do You Struggle?]

Alright so im turning SSAO , AA and Unsharp filter off to have the ''ps3 version'' on pc lol XD i dont mind just as long as im not running the game on worse than the ps3 version :D
