I have re-released the mod to focus on just fixing the low framerate bug/issue so I have removed all of the unnecessary parameters to only include the essentials.
For Ultimate Engine.ini simply download and drop into %AppData%/Local/Stalker2/Saved/Config/Windows (or WinGDK for Gamepass users)
Then edit this line: (r.Streaming.PoolSize=12288); Only for 16GB VRAM. If you have 24GB use 18432, for 12GB use 9216, for 11GB use 8192, for 10GB use 7168, for 8GB use 6144, for 6GB use 5120, for 4GB use 40) accordingly and you are done.
I also recommend adjusting this: t.MaxFPS=72 ("72" to whatever half the refresh rate is on your main monitor.)
If you would like to enhance your audio EVEN FURTHER you can adjust the value in these lines: AudioQualityLevel=0
LastConfirmedAudioQualityLevel=0 (0-3) found in GameUserSettings.ini, which is in the same folder that your Engine.ini file should be placed (Windows or WinGDK for Gamepass users). Beware as adjusting this can cause heavier CPU load, higher end CPUs are recommended.
I have removed Nvidia Ray Reconstruction due to not seeing any improvements. If you installed any of the other previous versions with Ray Reconstruction and followed the aforementioned steps please remove the .dll file from the Win64 folder.
All other updated files will be fine to keep (DLSS and Frame Generation). Also don't forget to go back into AppliedSettings.cfg and change RayReconstruction = true to RayReconstruction = false
After some testing I have found that changing this setting: r.Lumen.DiffuseIndirect.Allow=0 to r.Lumen.DiffuseIndirect.Allow=1 will fix the lighting issue inside of certain buildings, but will completely revert back to it's old broken low framerate self. You can also wait for nighttime as the lighting in that building is heavily effected by the lighting outside at that time. You can also hit pause and you will be able to see through the pause screen. Seems like we will have to deal with either one almost game breaking issue or the other until the devs come out with a actual fix for both issues.
Good luck, Stalker.
