    My 2 cents, after well over a decade spent modding games on potato PCs:
    DX 11 runs noticeably faster than DX10, yes. AVX has caused crashes in storyline mission locations (ie, miracle machine) on my AVX-enabled CPU, so if you experience them try turning AVX off.
    Rendering distance isn't too important in Anomaly, all the models in the game are pretty low quality so not rendering that 20-polygon thing across the map from you isn't a big deal.
    Rendering detail is actually one of the most important sections in the settings. These eat into your VRAM (dedicated RAM on your GPU card) the higher they're set and if you exceed your VRAM, you're going to lose performance as your GPU waits for data from normal RAM instead. Biggest hit is texture detail, going to half is a good start. MIP Bias can be left at max unless you're getting desperate. Object detail matters less because objects are low quality as stated above. Antistropic Filtering should be one of the first things you lower, low quality loss for a slight performance gain. I recommend not disabling it though. SMAA is a slower version of Anti-Aliasing, disable that and use low levels of normal AA instead. Keep Detail Bump on, the other 2 check boxes are basically modern versions of detail bump that are slower but provide neat effects that look like detail bump in normal gameplay, and really only look better if you stop and stare at a wall for a couple minutes.
    Turning off grass sucks, yeah, but just lowering the density a bit (and keeping the other options) still looks good and nets you a nice performance boost. Why wouldn't you?
    Lighting: distance and shadow quality good recommendations. Specular slider isn't a performance thing really, just a preference thing best left on default. Shadows are the other big VRAM eater so athough I recommend sun shadows left on, I also recommend lowering sun shadow quality to reduce VRAM usage. Sun rays: If you're watching this video, then you don't want volumetric sun rays. Set to screen space or just turn them off, it's just eye candy. SSAO: Pick HBAO for Nvidia or HDAO for AMD, set to low quality. If you can't even handle that then you should question your decision to try and run Anomaly to begin with. Volumetric light should be off if you're watching this video.
    Turn off everything under Effects. They're small details you have to actively try to notice, with big performance impacts. My favorite effect to leave on out of all of them is Wet Surfaces though, which is easiest to notice missing due to how often it rains.
    Aside from population factor, all the options in the gameplay settings will not have a significant effect on gameplay. Increasing stalker population increases the number of people in faction bases significantly, which is the main thing that kills FPS in faction bases. Offline combat has no direct effect on performance (I've seen how it works in the source code for the engine), but indirectly lowers the stalker and mutant population which will increase performance in areas where stalkers hang out.
    Corpse despawning is also insignificant: The area you are in has a limited number of NPCs it can host for performance reasons. This count also includes corpses that haven't despawned yet. An area that can host 30 stalkers, which you then fill with 30 corpses, will no longer fill in more enemies until at least one of those corpses despawns. Despawning corpses faster makes it so that more NPCs enter your area which makes the potential peformance gains inconsequential. You should still leave this setting low because you don't want the game to depopulate the garbage just because you killed a couple squads of bandits.

    If I can ask, what are your system specs for reference?
    Edit:
    Also a three tweaks I would suggest are: Uncheck both Cores 0 and 1 in the process affinity. As most modern processors have Hyper-threading enabled (I believe almost all Ryzen CPUs and most newer Intel chips that have 8 or more cores displayed in windows). That will fully offload Anomaly from the first physical core.
    We've also found enabling Prefetch Sounds in the launcher helps with stutter related to ogg-comment issues which seem to plague many Anomaly mods / modpacks.
    Finally in the main menu, press ~ to open the main menu, and type in: r__no_ram_textures off
    Then restart the game (and clear the shader cache, it will stutter a bit while recompiling shaders on the first launch.)
    This keeps Anomaly from eating as much vram as possible by offloading textures from VRAM to RAM. Whether or not this is a performance boost is dependent on your specific system, and the mods you are running. It can be disabled by setting r__no_ram_textures to on and restarting the game (and deleting the shader cache). Credit for this fix goes to CautionRamen of the C-Con discord.

    @AvnerSenderowicz 2 роки тому +32

    great stuff!
    my 2 cents:
    important to distinguish between low average fps and game stutter (fps drops).
    in Stalker - both can happen but really on non potato machines it's the stutter that is harder to get rid of.
    Changing GPU settings can improve average FPS, but if you experience game stuttering - that is CPU related no GPU.
    The way to reduce stutter is reduce population factor in the Zone.
    I think that's useful because otherwise unwary gamers can tweak their graphic settings for days and still see annoying stutter.
    Escape from Pripyat actually does a pretty good job with this iirc - already comes somewhat optimized.

    • @CheekiBreekiTv
      @CheekiBreekiTv  2 роки тому +6

      @@chloewebb5526 yeah, i think some people don't notice the stutter because the FPS counters don't catch them - but they are almost always there. some levels they are very noticeable some not so much.
      afaik this is because the game engine is very old and even after optimizations does not perform well when it comes to utilizing modern multi-core CPUs.
      not much to do about it afaik, even with lower population factor and running off fast-nvme - it's still there.
      (Ryzen 5700, nvme, gtx1060)
      it doesn't make the game unplayable by any means - but it would have been nice if there was a way to completely eliminate it.

    Most excellent! I've been battling with choppy fps and bad performance and found out with this video that the Anomaly HD Models Addon 14 has a HUGE impact on performance and most importantly with lighting, anytime there was a lamp with a character my FPS would drop to 30'ish and it was choppy and render latency went through the roof. I usually played on 60fps with the HD textures and now i just removed it and i'm at 120fps+. Its a nice texture pack but its either badly optimised or has an issue with the lighting in the engine. i5-8600K/GTX 1070SC/32gb RAM @3200/ Thank you very much for taking the time to make this video it really helped!

    I run at 2k on a 3700x, 1080, 32gb ram. EFP reshade. With all the settings in fame similar as in this video, texture and view distance = 50fps to start. Turning off all anti aliasing, sso, and ssr in game brought back 20-25fps. Reshade ppfxssdo is on, lowers 5-10. The most fps was recovered by disabling the HD models in MO2 according to the EFP discord's instructions. I run at a consistent 95+ fps now.
    I figured this might help someone.

    Your first tutorial on Anomaly best graphics settings was a go to. In every computer I installed anomaly on I would open your video and carefully adjust everything. I am sure this is just as well done as the first video, so thumbs up, thanks for making these tutorials. I have a 1050ti in my current rig, what kind of performance do you reckon I should expect? Or should I just trash this idea of getting EFP? I have already added so many mods, about 50 to my modlist and was considering giving this new mod a go, what are your thoughts? Thanks :)

    Salut Cheeki Breeki (en espérant que tu parles vraiment le français :p ).
    Merci beaucoup pour toutes les vidéos de ta chaîne que je suis depuis 2 ans. J'en suis déjà à 2 sessions terminés d'Anomaly bourrés de mods. Je suis tes instructions à la lettre. Mais hélas, j'ai beaucoup de mal avec mes derniers chipotages (merci Expedition). Mes graphismes sont devenus immondes. Je me demandais si il existe un forum francophone pour trouver de l'aide en modding, ou un discord... J'ai besoin qu'on me prenne par la main. Merci

    I have downloaded the game and I have followed all the steps to install the mods correctly in addition to your graphic configuration, but when I start a game I end up choosing faction, equipment and etc. When I hit start as soon as the loading screen ends, it takes me to the desktop without No reason and I don't get any error messages either.
    If you had the solution to this I would really appreciate it because it is one of my favorite games and it hurts not being able to play with all these addons and having to settle for playing the normal anomaly version.
