I need some guide for Performance

[Light]

Just need some guide and performance mod so I can run my game smoothly. It still playable and run smoothly sometimes but will be very hectic when fighting against more than 6 as FPS start to drop

Well.. what are your specs?

I'm using Oculus mode to run it. being playing this game without any problem just want to boost the performance more

Thats... just your CPU, i need GPU and RAM as well

Hey! The pinned help thread links to a good official guide for tips and tricks to help performance. Here is the part that is pertinent from the guide:

To start: always clear your mods and saves to remove any performance issues caused by mods and modded saves games, which is the cause of the vast majority of performance degrading issues. So start by:

1. Deleting your mods in StreamingAssets/Mods.

2. Delete the whole folder located at Documents/MyGames/BladeAndSorcery to remove your old save files.

See if this improved things! If you need more, then try set options:

- Set Physics to Low
- Set Persistent bodies to 1
- Turn MSAA off
- (if you are still needing more) Set render sale to 0.75

Other things that can impact performance:

- Using a Quest Link cable / Airlink / Virtual Desktop can impact performance. When one of these methods causes issues, people have reported trying the alternative tends to work out for them. For example, Airlink or VD is bad but the Link cable works fine.

- Headset Refresh rate set too high - 120fps is too high for B&S. You will get a much better play with the headset set to 90fps.

- Supersampling set too high in Steam - you shouldn't mess with SS in Steam unless you are positive you know what you are doing. Setting this over 100 can mega impact performance.

- Screen capture software can hog your system resources (like OBS).

- Thermal throttling - this is really a thing! Everyone who experiences this thinks it won't happen to them. Sometimes the solution is as easy as dusting out your PC, other times the solution was adding a new fan to the PC.

- Applications running in the background, eg Wallpaper Engine, FPS recorders, frame rate boosters, antivirus, etc.

- You may have Asynchronous Timewarp turned on with your Oculus device. This kicks in if your headset cannot maintain a stable frame rate (the case with most VR games) and makes your frame rate half so that the user gets a stable (albeit lower) frame rate rather than a fluctuating one. So half the frame rate for Oculus would be 45fps. If your frame rate is 45fps and you use an Oculus headset, it's almost certainly this. You can disable it in the headset options somewhere.
