Blurry when moving and low detail on Ultra

[CabooseTwo]

So I was playing with an old 1080P 60hz HDMI monitor and everything ran smooth and there didnt seem to be any visual issues that I noticed. However I recently purchased a Asus VG248QE that runs at 144hz with display port. Now when I try and play the edges seem blurry when I am moving and the details looks like it couldnt be on ultra... I am getting about 60 FPS however. I am running a 4GB 970 if that helps.

does it look like this: http://i.imgur.com/RheTBAb.jpg

if so, turn 3d stereoscopy off in nvidia control panel.

Here's a screenshot of the detail I'm referring to

Ohhh. you may need to do the ini edit to get the mip-map fix (sometimes certain textures won't load higher than the medium-high mip set. there are some spots in the game that ALWAYS look low res, but i don't think that's one of them. I'd reccomend getting the better launcher/config tool mod off nexus, http://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/102/? that one. it's super easy to use, and lets you edit a bunch of things (and apply some nice fixes like the mipmap one with a single box) all while keeping backups of your original inis. it also handles keeping the game from reseting your ini files and stopping mods, it can automatically mark them read only for you after it's saved its own settings in.

for reference, to apply the mip-map fix, under the performance tab set mip-map skip to -1. hovering over any of the names of the boxes displays a tooltip with info. it's pretty handy.

Would this by chance fix the issue where edges bet blurry when moving by chance?
But I will give this a try for the detail, thanks!

Oh
Hold on.

look for a feature in the monitor's OSD (on-screen display) called trace free
(video is a different monitor, but its an asus feature)

set it to around 60 or less, experiment with it.

if it's 70-100, its probably too high, and not compensating/out of sync to compensate for ghosting.

found this issue on a forum where someone had it set to 100, turned out having it too high is just as bad as too low.

that should ACTUALLY fix it. the launcher is still a great thing to have, but if that fixes all your problems, you won't need the enhanced config launcher.

Trace Free is awesome, I have mine at 80%, really does make games look sharper

yeah the sweet spot varies even within the same model of their monitors judging from google results, so maybe its personal pref. OP should deffinately try and experiment with values till he gets it right.

OK so I changed my trace free and it runs amazing now, no more stutter or weird blurs, thank you so much for that!. Unfortunately the door does look the exact same but at least now it plays a thousand times better.

Wait for high res texture mods or get some now. I know a TON of the default world textures when modders looked at them were 1024x1024 or 512x512 res upscaled to 2048x2048 or 4096x4096. thats how mods like wasteland 512 (replaces all the upscaled texs with ones that are MUCH lower res yet look the same visually) give a huge performance boost with loading times and texture pop-in without changing much of anything visibly. it's hilarious that someone at bethesda basically threw all the textures into photoshop, scaled them up anywhere from 2x to 4x size, did a slight noise and sharpen effect, etc etc. and called it a day. "THAT'LL TEACH THEM TO INSULT OUR GRAPHIX" there's already mods that make the outdoor ground textures look waaaaaaaaay more detailed despite using 1024 or 2048 textures versus the original's 4096 (obv upscaled from 512)

Yeah, now that it is alot more playable I can handle some bad graphics for a while, thank you for all your help!!!
