- Permissions and credits
For parameterization, My Setup: AMD Ryzen 5600GT (APU only – no dedicated GPU); 32GB RAM running at 1360x768 (100% scale) resolution; VSync OFF; TAA at Medium; Shadows OFF; No reflex/SSR, Texture at Ultra; Mesh at Medium; Bloom at Medium, everything else at low or off
What this mod does:
This mod overrides several Unreal Engine graphics settings directly through the
Engine.ini
file. It disables or lowers dozens of visual features that can't be changed in the game by commum ways like:- Shadows
- Bloom
- Ambient Occlusion
- Reflections
- Motion Blur
- Depth of Field
- Lens Flare
- Volumetrics
- Water effects
- Light Shafts
- SSR reflex
- ...and much more
Performance Impact:
With this mod, I tested one of the most demanding stages in CUSTOM PRESET VS ULTRA LOW MOD WITH CUSTOM PRESET and noticed my APU usage dropped from 90% to around 60% or lower — resulting in up to 25% more performance in areas that previously caused major FPS drops.
So testing again in a logical scenario, comparing lowest presets vs ultra low mod with lowest presets, the usage drops from about 60% to 40%, giving up to 20% more performance in those scenarios too.
It’s especially helpful for:
- Integrated graphics (Intel HD/UHD, Vega 3)
- CPUs with no dedicated GPU
- Systems with 4GB RAM or less
- Steam Deck (in low power modes)
