Post by Briggsware » Sat Sep 12, 2015 3:09 pm

Hello, 


This thread is for people how cant be assed going through there .INI files and want to just find some .INI files what match there PC rig... With these .INI files I have never crashed! They have been changed only to make it run smoother for my specs and not crash, I have only optimized the CPU core usage making it use 4 cores and 8 threads, on the most stable threads/line of code! Also I have changed the Memory usage so that it matches my specs and it very stable!!!  The settings are as high as they will go with 1080 X 1920! I have darnified UI so those changes are in there! I didn't real know where to put the forum under so, yeah...


There are 4 .INI files, The fallout.INI, Falloutprefs.INI, Fallout_defults.INI and the shutter remover.INI!


I will be uploading a Video with these settings and and all my mods on! My channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCFNgoWgQ4QxqiaXFi-45riQ


I do not have an ENB!


Specs what are needed for these .INI files


CPU with 5+ cores andor 8 threads, such as a 4 core I7 with hyper threading...


8GB+ of RAM


2GB+ of VRAM

Don't change these, they correspond to uGridsToLoad, put them back at default.


uInterior Cell Buffer=16

uExterior Cell Buffer=102


Don't change this either, it's only the buffer for the videos, set it back to default.


iPreloadSizeLimit=262144000


also, iNumHWThreads is missing in regards to bUseThreadedAI=1, so this is doing nothing.


There is a LOT of nonsense in so called "ini" guides for Fallout games, beware.


Lastly, it's not good to share your ini files as they differ between systems and you can break someone elses game.

Thanks for the Reply! Thats very helpful thanks! I will look into the BuseThreadedAI=1 now! Also isnt the iPreloadsizeLimit for amount of RAM preloaded for rendering the game??? as for The Uexteriors and Uinteriors I will leave them as it helps smoothen my gameplay for some old reason... 


Thanks again for the help!!! XD

ini settings that are NOT

Post by RoyBatty » Sat Sep 12, 2015 4:47 pm

ini settings that are NOT placebo are already in the performance thread.


Changing the cell buffer settings is going to lead to out of memory crashes.


Like I said, iPreloadSizeLimit is the setting for the VIDEO BUFFER. As in the .bik videos. Has 0 to do with the game play memory.

I know I've jumped on this

I know I've jumped on this topic a lot.. and have to keep reminding myself what Roy has already stated.  For those who still come to this page for ideas or INI edits to improve their gameplay... I recommend Ardonis nice little A STEP Hosted guide for Tale of Two Wastelands (​http://wiki.step-project.com/User:Adonis_VII/TTW#INI_Tweaks) Section 5 INI Tweaks.  I feel the changes recommended there are pretty safe and the page itself has many linked mods and steps that can be used for gameplay.  It is among the many helpful links for modding your FNV/FO3/TTW games!  However, the safest link for this help is stickied here on TTW Modding Tutorials link and can be also found here:  https://taleoftwowastelands.com/content/ttw-performance-guide  Happy Modding!
