low vram users ultimate fix

[mr.niceguy]

took me a lot of effort and time to find a stable custom config for this game.leave a thanx if it work for you.this game loves vram as so much
Some things you should know if you use this:
1.this is not recommended for gpus more than 2gb of vram..though u can try if you are having problems.
2.may fix your video allocation problem and crash dumps
3.works flawlessly on 1gb vram video cards(needs 8gb system ram minimum)
4.editing this config is not recommended.this config is running on 720p medium
5.you will find less quality textures and shadows with this.(thats why i said not recommended for high vram gpu.i mean y would you care to lower settings with 300 dollars gpu)
6.lock your framerate with nvidia inspector or riva tunner for better frametime and dont use vsync to lock fps
i tested this on gtx 750 1gb and it works without any problems. now im glad i could play this game and you should too because this game is kickass

link to config (1gb vram)(updated with visuals)

link to config V2 (2gb vram)(just remove v2 from config name)(updated with visuals)

Is this also deals with problems caused by lack of VRAM (I have 2GB)? In my error raport is line: "Device is blacklisted for async compute support
Setting GPU culling according to user option: off
enabling image dropmip as device has less than 4000 MiB vramInitializing Vulkan subsystem" and "FATAL ERROR: createSwapchainKHR failed with error (VK_ERROR_VALIDATION_FAILED_EXT)"

try disabling asyc compute and..also try uninstalling your gpu drivers and vulkan drivers.and reinstalling them

It has worked for me for a little while! It helped me start the game and get all the way to NYC. Thank you so much!

My specs: GT70 laptop, GeForce GTX 770M 3G, 12GB of memory. i7-4700MQ processor. Running the 388.13 driver on Nvidia. Windows Home 7 Premium, service pack 1.

its not working anymore?
dont customize the settings or alt+tab out of game.you have to restart the game again

When it went to load the NYC underground mission and I died, the game started doing the old crappy stuff again. I just exited out and will try to play later. The cut scenes have major black spots and flashing, but at least I can play the game. Thanks again!

try disabling asyc compute and..also try uninstalling your gpu drivers and vulkan drivers.and reinstalling them

Done that with divers and Vulkan, not working. Should I disable Async Compute in launching options or where?
