Avowed Performance+ Visuals Optimization ConfigThis mod replaces the original Engine.ini configuration with a fully optimized setup, enhancing performance on low- and mid-range systems without removing visual fidelity completely. Carefully tweaked postprocessing, shadows, LODs, and texture streaming offer a smoother experience, especially useful for users with integrated GPUs like Intel Arc, or older hardware.
What was removed:
  • Volumetric Clouds and Fog
    Disabled to drastically reduce GPU load.
  • Motion Blur, Lens Flare, Chromatic Aberration
    Removed for sharper visuals and better clarity.
  • Ambient Occlusion
    Fully disabled for performance.
  • Sky occlusion fog and atmospheric scattering effects
    Simplified sky visuals to prevent crashes and improve FPS.
  • NVIDIA DLSS plugin path
    Kept in config but unused; works universally thanks to enabled FSR 2.
  • Excess debug and crash tracing systems
 What was added or tweaked:
  • FSR 2 kept enabled for all GPU compatibility (including Intel).
  • ViewDistanceScale set to 20
    Ensures distant terrain and enemies are always visible.
  • Custom color correction
    Balanced tone mapping (gamma 1.75) and slight sharpening.
  • AutoExposure enabled with histogram method for dynamic scenes.
  • Cascaded shadows up to 8 levels with high quality settings.
  • Full texture streaming optimization
    Uses full VRAM, prioritizes visible textures, disables lightmap streaming.
  • Async shader preloading and threading
    Improves loading and stability.
  • Fixed frame rate at 144 for stable rendering loops.
  • Reduced foliage and LOD distance scales
    Maintains quality nearby while improving performance at a distance.

This config was tested extensively on systems with Intel Arc and AMD Vega graphics. It is built to ensure stability without fatal errors or loading crashes.
Let me know if you want to add an optional variant (e.g., for ultra-low-end or RTX systems).
