    GTX1060 user here with maximum graphics settings.
    So I test it and here is the result (with TSUKI Reshade and no mods):
    Before
    launch time : 7,95s
    loading screen: 30,91s
    After
    launch time : 07,54s
    loading screen : 20,24s
    (average after 10 launch)

    So yes, it's really worth it !

      Edit: i found small leak about AMD performance update for OpenGL

    The issues with "kenshi" and "Kenshi" are addressed in the installation guide. I only had to delete "kenshi" and could import to "Kenshi".

    This was amazing and immediately noticeable, thank you Scar. Really appreciate it.

      sounds like driver discrepancy, try using profile inspector from github or if that doesn't work reinstall GPU driver

    scaraw i thought u might want to know this:
    when i imported profile it was added all in lower case "kenshi"
    it was only profile, but when i messed with all reinstallations nvidia default "Kenshi" has returned and so i had duplicate.

    did you type it in lower case deliberately to avoid compatibility issues when importing?

    Perfect. I am playing with Universal Wasteland Extended, Reactive World, Living World and Kaizo(and some minor mods). With these mods Kenshi was worked really awful. But when I done the instruction game finally started work stable(no freezes and stutters every 10 seconds)

    Mod doesn't increase loading screen speed before the game but locations load speed increased(1.5x-2.0x)

    My configuration:

    GTX 1050 2gb laptop

    Intel Core i5 7300hq

    Memory 16Gb

      This works with my laptop too. I'm also using rtx 3070ti, before i use version 2.4.0.11 it crashs too. This problem seems to only happen with rtx3070ti? This new version of nvidiaprofile inspector works without crash, thank you queentulippp and modder SCARaw for this mod

      I think the problem happens with recent GPUs because I have a 4060 ti and the 2.4.0.11 worked too. Thank you for sharing.

    Warning: Google Translate.
    English is not my native language.
    Your mod works!
    1. I collected all possible errors during installation, but I was able to solve them.
    2. I have 3080 TI and GOG version.

    Step. 0. Complete uninstallation (important) and then installation of the latest drivers.
    Step. 1. Editing the NIP profile. Strictly line 8. I have a GOG game, so this is an important step.
    Step. 2. Deleting all x64 entries in profiles.
    Step. 3. Importing the profile. And then saving the profile.
    Step. 4. Editing the cfg.
    Step. 5. Launching the game from the exe from the game folder. I did not have a pop-up window, but the settings were applied.
    Report:
    Loading locations is faster.
    Switching between Swamp/Hang squads is faster
    Image is smoother
    Frames are larger. The change was 30-110 became 90-120
    Perhaps the image became clearer.
    Test on the border of the Border Zone and the Swamp - changing locations, loading with athletics 95 faster.
    Battle animation is smoother, not so jerky
    One drawback was identified.
    I replaced a separate DarkUI with your mod with textures. Your version of DarkUI is darker than the original. It would be nice if the interface and the game itself had the same brightness.
    Thank you for your work.

      Thank you for feedback
      Have Fun Playing Kenshi, awesome you get it to work
      Your mod works!
      YES, i use it myself, i pay my own electricity bills and they lessen after i made it,
      now however i started improving my grid, installation and installing solar panels
      its hard to tell if my bills drops because i do stuffs or because i play less xD

    I strangely can't get it to work. There's no Kenshi_x64.exe to remove from the default profile, yet when I try to import the Kenshiv10.nip profile, Nvidia Inspector gives me an error:

    Some profile(s) could not be imported!

    Faile to import profile 'Kenshi'
    - application 'kenshi_x64.exe is already in use by profile 'kenshi'

    Very weird.

    Ignore me. Turns out Nvidia Inspector for some reason has two default profiles: 'Kenshi' and 'kenshi'. Kenshi with a lower case K works as guide intended.

      Light artifacts can not happen just with the mod itself
      this might be a conflict with reshade or graphics driver, generally speaking Nvidia settings should never display artifacts like this unless you use other mods that change the game
