But while fighting the ghouls you encounter after the tutorial, I can feel some low frames, I can usually tolerate low fps (around 30 still good for me) but the fight feels a lot sluggish, probably 20 something fps that time. Too bad I dont have SSD, probably gonna improve some fps.

It really just adjusting some values in the text file, not really asking you to make codingĀ  sweat.gif
Well, here a simple 1-2-3 walkthrough:

» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «


Though I think it's rather unstable at times... Sometime my game failed to start... Ouch.
In that case delete [SweetFX], [dxgi.dll], [Sweet.fx]... and start overĀ  sweat.gif

i'm oredi old and rusty... sweat.gif

Oh shiiiiiiiii............ Confirmed using Reshade, evertime restart game will crash.
Solution: go to game folder / bin / x64 and delete [dxgi.log], now the game will start.  sweat.gif  weird...
^ gotta do that every time re-start game, so make a shortcut to that folder for easy access next time...

ok.....will wait for a patch or some better solution then... sweat.gif

No, the SLI profile for the game is broken at the moment.
Obviously. The game for how it looks and what it is, it isn't that very well optimized on PC. Turn off hair works, because it's impossible to use it with all other settings on max and still expect 60fps.
It doesn't, oddly. The biggest VRAM killer is foliage density and distance. Lower it.
Not possible, unless you lower foliage density, distance and disable hair works. You will also have to use SSAO instead of HBAO+.

Finally got Hairworks to perform better. Just set the HairWorksMSAA value in the ini to 2.
I can finally get the game to run at 1440p 60fps, all maxed out with shadows at high and foliage distance at high. Other tweaks that I have is increasing the shadow distance and cascading in the ini, as well as higher grass density.

For 1080p, users of highly OC'd 970 or a GTX980 can achieve near solid 60fps (no lower than min 55) if you drop HairworksMSAA down to 0 with all other settings maxed out (except foliage distance of course). This will produce shimmering, but if you have blur and motion blur enabled, it wouldn't be too distracting.

Now just have to figure out how to tone down bloom a little bit so that dawn wouldn't be so overbearing.

i think we should put all tweaking/settings at the front page...
can the TS do the honor??? notworthy.gif

hmm...not using steam nor do i like the idea of installing a third-party tools jus to measure the fps...

thought there's an ingame setting to enable fps reading...

i'm using the Ultra setting, maximizing all the postprocessing...
playable but can feel it's not butterly smooth...
but anyway...need to fetch my wife and kid oredi...
that's it for me for today... sad.gif

No prob. Will try and finalize it today or tomorrow, as soon as I can fix the AO flicker.
Not sure how it works on GOG, but on my steam version, the 1.02 update automatically installed the DLC for me.

So if it works the same way, you probably already have the DLC in the game. If you can see the Temerian Armor set, then that means you do have the DLC already.

unfortunately...gog is not as user-friendly as steam. perhaps the gog galaxy may be more user-friendly than the site...

If you have PS4, go ahead. Otherwise on PC, prepare to deal with some niggly issues. It's much better than it was before though.
Okay, one other way to check is to your documents > witcher 3 > user.settings > open with notepad++.

Find the parameter -
[DLC]
DlcEnabled_dlc_001_001=1
DlcEnabled_dlc_002_001=1

If it says 1, then yes you have it already. If it is 0, then you don't.

on the using DS4 controller part, i can see why - the UI is quite console-ish....
but for me - i'll try to stick wif keyboard + mouse combo for now...
although i noticed the movement is like gta v....wobbly...not firm like skyrim...

for the DLC, i think u may have misunderstood me.
in previous post, Ronzph, has posted the link to the dlc. following the link i managed to download the dlc...
but when i tried to find it myself at gog.com, (before clicking the posted link)...i cant find it in my library...nor it is posted at the gog.com mainpage....so i was wondering where was it located....

although after some digging now, i find it under the 'NEW' list...listed as one of the 'new' game released... doh.gif
one have to manually click at the 'NEW' link to see it....

lol. that's not what CDP did.

the core gameplay and size did not change. they had to resort to cheap script instead of physic based environment, shitty texture, bla, bla, due to console limited power.

"did somehow hold them back" is an understatement.

and suggested that anyone who still has doubts should wait to see what happens in the future before purchasing the game.

after an hour plus into the game, got killed by this creature called Nekkid or something?

how i know when looting something will get me into trouble?

i dun quite enjoy riding the horse, when i'll have to climb down back each time i wanted to become gardener...quite troublesome. if im gonna leave Roach far, far away, can i still call it back wif a whitsle?

getting around 50-ish wif everything max except Foliage Visibility and Shadow set to High and the disabling the Hairworks.

Ride a horse to kill them in 2~3 shots.
- Nekkers? They'll swarm you and you need to dodge constantly to avoid getting killed
- There is a warning when you attempt to loot from an unauthorized chest. Dont just E + spacebar.
- Press X to call roach. Plus most of the games; even online games, needs you to unmount to loot

which is why i dun own a horse in Skyrim...
or i did have a horse in WoW...which i only ride it for long distance travelling...guess i'll only use Roach for that purpose...
