Texture pop-in issues
Hi,

I've finally got my game running nice, now I've got a new issue. Texture pop-in.

For example, at sanctuary I walk up to a burnt out car, it looks like it has low res textures, then suddenly it goes high res. Doors, boxes, concrete blocks and some walls are the same. You walk up to them, it looks all low res, wait a few seconds and it goes high res. Walk away, come back, same issue.

My graphics setts are set to a Ultra on almost everything. I was playing with the Vysnc unlocked but the FPS locked to 58 using NvidiaInspector. Changing back to the games own settings seems to help, but only slightly.

How do I fix this??

What type of hard drive is the game installed on?

An SSD pretty much eliminates texture pop-in, so if you have one you could transfer the game over. If it's already on an SSD, or you don't have one, you can either buy one or just wait and hope the dev's optimize the game a little more. If you are playing on a 5400rpm HDD then aside from buying an SSD there's not much you can do.

I could swear this was stickied at the top, but when I looked I didn't see it anywhere.

Theres a section there labeled "7. Fix textures not loading their high-resolution versions up close" which sounds like your exact problem.

AvatarOfWar, you're a 'superstar', thanks! It's fixed it pretty much completely. My loading times have increased slightly, but I'm on an SSD for this game so it's not all bad.

Thanks again! :)

Had the exact same issue, and no putting the game on SSD doesnt solve this problem. The problem got fixed for me with the 1.3 beta patch. You may want to download it or wait for the official release

Was fixed by putting it on an SSD for me, since release.

Fair enough.

Make sure you edit the fallout.ini to force multi core/thread cpus
Also add these lines in just copy and paste of mine this should take care of the texture pop ins these go under the general tab. You will need a card that has 4gb at least to use the texture settings even at 1080p.

[General]
sLanguage=en
uGridsToLoad=5
bDisableAllGore=0
uInterior Cell Buffer=12
uExterior Cell Buffer=144
iNumHWThreads=8
iPreloadSizeLimit=262144000
bForceUpdateDiffuseOnly=0
iTextureUpgradeDistance1=7500
iTextureUpgradeDistance0=5000
iTextureDegradeDistance1=7500
iTextureDegradeDistance0=5000

Glad it helped you out, yeah I spent countless hours trying to get the game to run good because I upgraded to a FuryX before I went back to nvidia. So every bit of performance I could get back would help due to so much of gameworks being offloaded onto the cpu and then shadow rendering onto one core only. So it really bogged down my gaming experience with fallout 4. Enjoy your game =)

Why do people consider it a bad thing to comment on an old post? If it's still relevant (and it is) then it makes sense to comment.
