Performance issues that suddenly appeared
Hey there!
I have a problem: I bought and played F4 for about 10 hours, went to bed and the next day, i had severe performance issues. I installed some mods (blood texture enhancer, some texture mod with smaller filesize, some menumods) and even with this mods i had no performance issues. Overnight, it felt like my PC is way to weak to run this game. Thats really weird because i had about solid 30-35 fps at middle settings but the day after, the game felt really slow and was horrible to play.

Settings:
i5 6700hq
8 gb ram
GTX 950M
Laptop from HP; bought 2016

I know, my Setup is not the best but could run F4 quite good actually.

Does anyone have the same issues?
Did anyone have this kind of issues but was able to repair it?

Cheers!

Did you get into the city?

It's a very long process to completely optimize Fallout 4 to your PC, I'll assume that the GTX 950M is from Nvidia, right?

If I were to explain everything in full detail to you, it'd be a very long and eye-hurting wall of text, so I'll just provide you with some videos which go into extensive detail on how to improve your Fallout 4 performance.


How to uncap your FPS, however I would recommend raising the cap from 60 to ~150.

Here's the Fallout 4 config tool, it allows you to control the graphical settings of the game.

It provides you with alot more control over your graphical setting than the default options will.

Did you install those mods before you started playing, or after you played those first 10 hours? Installing, or uninstalling, mods mid game can have adverse affects to your save game files.

Make sure shadow distance is set to medium, that is usually the difference between an enormous amount of frames, like seriously that one option can in some cases completely double your framerate and as you get closer to the city it's shadows galore.
