Possible FPS fix

So I posted something about constant crashes and re-installs on their facebook page and someone wrote back to me asking for some crash logs.

There is a folder in the appdata\local\spacefish directory called “Saved”

Rename that folder to something else

Warning This will reset all your settings, including custom loadouts and accesories/shaders notifications

After doing that, run the game.

All graphics settings will be now on “Epic” but your FPS should be around 50-80 FPS on average.

Thing is, before doing this, when I configured all my graphics settings to Epic my FPS would drop below 40… on the menus.

Overall after doing this I’ve seen some improvement. If you are having trouble try this, if it doesn’t help, you can always restore back your old settings by renaming that folder back to “Saved”

Yeah that works lol, but not by that much usually gives ou realistically 5-10 fps boost cause excess data and shit,… in general they need to redesign their shadows or just optimize them cause like damn… going from low to medium shadows takes like 50 of your fps down XD… and going from medium to high takes 10 or 20 more… from high to epic or very high is in general taking around same… and cinematic is just… hammering down on your GPU…

Hey, I’ll take those 5-10 fps any day. At least is something. Playing this game below 30 FPS is just suicide.

What i also noticed is… they use some sort of Square by square chunk load… and it kinda follows the player around the map… like basically 2x2 square not that big but in general big enough to fit a player … umm its generally a thing they need to optimize with unreal engine… unreal engine is like fairly hard to optimize the more you put into it and better graphics and sort… but yes i think most mid-high end pc’s should run predator on cinematic at 60 fps… like a GTX 1060 maybe… 1070 for sure… and up should all be able to run 60 fps on cinematic without any major drops… maybe like 57-60… cause cinematic for me sounds like everything is sharp af and detailed and effects are off the charts… and going from cinematic to epic should give you 90 fps imo…

Try to play 62-72 fps on a 240hz monitor… jk don’t it will ruin your vision and fk your future games up… 240hz is a curse literally lmao… blessing in a curse and curse in a blessing… like the only best fps value on 240hz would be around 120-140 fps lmao… 180 fps is ideal… 240 is like barley noticable?

nah man… I’m still playing in 1080P@60Hz on the living room.

I just got back into gaming because of the Covid thing I now have time to spare. So except for my GPU, all my hardware is decent, but pretty dated.

I have a 1070 Ti and was constantly maxed at 99% usage with FPS well below 40 if I went for cinematic. Dropping resolution to 720P did not make any difference in FPS, which is really weird and makes me wonder if this game is rendered at whatever resolution your monitor has regardless of the settings.

I even hooked a 4K TV and there FPS dropped massively. About 13-15 FPS, even after setting the res to 1080P and 720P. So again, makes me wonder if this game is rendered at whatever resolution your monitor has regardless of the settings.
