Remove muzzle flashes and other annoying effects

Removes eye strain and reduces lag :)

Why?

It helps with FPS drops in a lot of cases, especially when PUPS is deployed. That damn thing was a bane of my existence - would be playing just fine and then my recon buddy tosses PUPS.. both I and Xenos instantly get a debuff of becoming slower and dumber :Y

AND it removes all of the blinding muzzle flashes! A great deal if you'd ask me!

How?

You will need to go to ..\AppData\Local\Endeavor\Saved\Config\WindowsNoEditor folder and find the Engine.ini file, then open it with any text editor.

Paste this at the end:

[SystemSettings]
FX.MaxCPUParticlesPerEmitter=0
FX.MaxGPUParticlesSpawnedPerFrame=0

Save the file.
To revert - simply remove the lines from this file.

Additional setting:

If you wish to remove darkened edges of the screen (and have it clear like on my screenshots) then you should paste the following instead:

[SystemSettings]
r.Tonemapper.Quality=0
FX.MaxCPUParticlesPerEmitter=0
FX.MaxGPUParticlesSpawnedPerFrame=0

Cons?

1: You won't see the flames of your teammates (But who am I kidding, you are most likely playing with my modded bots o-o)

2: When you are placing turrets/mines/consumables it won't show you the "hologram" of the thing. So you'll have to learn to place them without relaying on that.

@Katmorphous333 Yep, that was the initial idea, couldn't find a way sadly :(

[Katmorphous333]

Wish you found a way to only remove the pups bs...

what are the numbers out of? If I for example put 1 or 2 instead of zero would there still be some particle effects, just at a lower quality?

Hmm - i might have a wee looky myself :D

@Riftwind there's a lot of commands. I personally simply googled commands for Unreal Engine 4 and looked through them until I found the ones that were responsible for effects, then by trial and error found the ones I needed.

Interesting. You dont know of any other commands that do things ingame? Fov, dof etc?
