|Comments= Playing on a Low end notebook. Menus, Cut-Scenes and Gameplay in general are capped at 60 FPs. NO glitches are found if the recommendations are followed. | |||
*NOTE* | |||
**V.1.7. 138** | |||
All the instructions are for performance ONLY. the graphics are still good, but a bit blocky /pixelated. If you want better graphics + performance just change the texture filtering to PS2 and check if FXAA checkbox is checked in shader options. More than that will be increasing the resolution to something else and this surely will cause fps drops if your notebook/pc's cpu isn't that good like mine. | |||
