NEW Mod That Gives Huge FPS Boost in Stalker 2

Hope this helps! It definitely gave me a huge performance boost but be aware this will vary with different PC's and setups, so if you don't see satisfying results you may have to wait until an official patch from GSC.

STALKER 2 Anti-Stutter Mod and Massive FPS Boost

[qmqz_]

Hey, thank you so much for the shoutout!

As of today, I've removed Main and only left Base, Peak, Potato and Ultra. The differences between Main and Base via FPS aren't very noticeable, but there is no more visual degradation that happens, same applies for Peak (If you re-enable everything shown in the ReadMe). The 80 > 180fps screenshot was on Mid with everything disabled, so if you put the Peak 3 Engine.ini into the folder, you'll notice some pretty serious graphical drawbacks, but the fps should be nearly 2x as high. I also used Frame Generation, which is no longer problematic with this Engine.ini if you want to test that. You should check your frametimes too when you get a moment, as you'll see a dramatic decrease in spikes and a lot more consistency when turning your mouse compared to no mod.

I do update the mod several times a day, so please be aware of that :p

UE5 just sucks, I hate how everyone is just expected to use upscaling and framegen now. The input delay with framegen on is insane, also it causes visual bugs on red dot sights

[trip_to_peru]

dude WHAT I got 20 extra frames on my fucking 1050ti now I'm running it at stable 45 and that's with framegen OFF lmao! nice ass mod thanks a bunch you bloody legend! made my game enjoyable and also made my day.

I also have a mod that does something similar to this named "Optimization Essentials", but with less quality loss in most presets. Not trying to say its better or worse, but I hope everyone tries both mods & provides feedback. Different things may work better for different people. Great video & great mod!

Finally something for potato cultivators.Make save game backup just in case.

This got me from low 40's in some places up to low 60's at 1440p medium settings with balanced dlss on a rtx 2080, works pretty well.

This was insane for me - before I was averaging 40-50 FPS, dipping to low 40s/high 30s in buildings. Now I'm around 100 fps outside, dipping to 80 in buildings! I can actually play the game that I've been hyped about for 2 years now!

Hey man big thanks for the video. Been having some performance issues and this made it much easier. Plus the install was super easy to understand. GGs

Yep, the Main version of this mod for performance and Omega modpack with Mutant Loot for gameplay/QoL is probably the best experience you can get with STALKER 2 right now.

Qloud coming in clutch, looking forward to the series for this game

I don't care about fps. I just want the stutters to stop.

Just for comparisons sake, im running an i7 8086 oc’d to 4ghz.
3070ti 8gb, 16gb ram.
When I first fired up the game I set everything to epic. DLSS on set to DLAA. I was amazed at how well it played. Smooth with very little input lag. However all that changed when I arrived in Zalyissa. FPS tanked to 5/6fps.
For the past day I’ve tried a few of the different “performance fix mods” on the Nexus. A couple of Engine.ini files/edits.
Installed the latest reshade and tweaked the profile.
Generally the game now runs smooth and snappy but I still suffer from seemingly random, intermittent chugging. It sometimes goes away on its own after a minute or so. Other times I have to quick load, then sometimes I have to shut the game down and re launch entirely. Even had to reboot the pc once today to fix it.
There’s a fine line currently between playable framerates, acceptable input delay/lag, and a clean acceptable image vs a blurry ghosting mess.
In between all the testing and tweaking and reloading I am having a blast playing. Just the random chugging SUCKS

Jesus hrist I finally got past the main mission that was lagging so hard THIS VIDEO SAVED ME

[alpharorschach]

Praise and thanks from me and my good old RX 5700xt. Good hunting stalker.

[marcinkrab]

not kidding Im only able to play this game because of this mod everyone with a potato should check it out

[AKAVANISHX]

Im just gonna start subbing to people who are more real less money grabbing screaming into mic people. This guys a vibe. Frfr

[Underwatches]

hey dude, thanks for making this video! I have a 3060 and a Ryzen 5 5500, and even though my game ran alright, and pretty good 90% of the time with fsr framegen, I hate some of the ghosting effects that it causes. seeing this made it so it's comfortable for me without framegen! I checked out some of your other content, and I love it! keep up the good work man, you just earned a sub!

1:15 and you know what else masive






Low taper gade

[Xiaoxiao]

What i dont understand is that some modder dude fixed the main performance issues before the GSC devs have, the new patch doesnt even fix the stutter or performance issues. GSC should be hiring this guy.

[soratoru]

Honestly, I feel like graphics hit a peak in 2017-2022, I don't understand why dev's would try to go for "better graphics" when looking at a game from that time point looks the same or even better but can be run with a budget card. I'm actually so confused. Do they not see the charts in steam that most people have a 1650? they should at least base of their optimizations off of that when making games, because damn they are losing on a lot of players.
