Version 2.0
Added further AA and Sharpness optimizations (to reduce/fix the shimmering of fine details like hair/fur/grass/foliage)
After months of UE5 testing, I would like to share my definitive custom "Engine.ini" changes for the game.
My goal was to just include as many optimizations as possible (both for CPU/GPU/RAM/SSD) in order to remove most stuttering, improve performance, reduce input latency and improve picture clarity (e.g. by removing Film Grain & Chromatic Aberration, optimize DLSS/FSR upscaling and more) all without any visual loss nor introducing glitches or crashes.
