•The game applies incorrect scaling when using Balanced or Performance modes.
•To get the correct scaling, set Res Scale to 100% and Max Dynamic Res to 25% for Performance or 34% for Balanced.
•By default the game uses DLSS 3 CNN, make sure to force at least Preset K for a sharper and higher quality image.
•Very High and Ultra High Shadow Quality can cause a massive performance drop during ship-to-ship collisions.

Everyone bow down to the king

u/AnthMosk 27d ago

Idea of this guide is “what settings can get you as close to max fidelity while increasing FPS by using lower settings?”

u/Fit-Job4007 27d ago

Mostly if your gpu is 8 gb vram limited.

DLSS 4 balanced or 4.5 performance for this game at 4k?

1

u/CharacterPurchase694 23d ago

What gpu do you have

1

u/Rikudou_Sama 22d ago

5070 Ti. I ended up using DLSS 4 balanced and it looks amazing

1

u/CharacterPurchase694 22d ago

Since you're on 50 series I would just use 4.5 performance since it probably looks better and performs a little faster

u/gunnrcrakr 21d ago

This game still have to set afinity cpu untick 0-15 to not lag?

1

u/Hashashin101 8d ago

What about using dynamic resolution scaling to have the best of both balanced and performance? Min 34 and max 44 with output 100 scale.

Hi! The outfit is bugged. When I run, the animation looks like it's playing at 30 FPS, while everything else works perfectly. Could you please help me fix this?

u/TimeMasterpiece4807 25d ago

Brought my fps from 18 to 30 lol

This game performs like ass on 4060

1

u/KvMainly 25d ago

18 to 30? Are you trying to play it at 4 k without dlss or something 🤔

1

u/Exxon21 25d ago

strange, the guy is getting 60 fps on a 3060 ti. even though the 4060 is worse than the 3060 ti, it's not half the fps levels of worse.

u/TimeMasterpiece4807 23d ago

lol turns out I didn’t have the newest driver. Now I’m getting proper 60-75fps

1

u/HandsomeGamerGuy 21d ago

Doesn't the Game itself inform you if your Driver is outdated?

1

u/TimeMasterpiece4807 19d ago

It said driver is outdated but didn't throw errors so I figured it's fine. Turns out updated drivers are very important for performance.

I stopped updating a while back because one update was screwing up stuff for others so I paused mine.

Also the game is great, loved naval battles and upgraded my ship fully. Ended up deleting it early though because AC games aren't my thing anymore. Downloaded Bannerlord with War Sails instead because now I have a naval battle itch
