Dune Yerts Config – Engine.ini Optimization
The Dune Yerts Config is a custom Engine.ini configuration mod for Dune: Awakening, designed to optimize performance and responsiveness without interfering with anti-cheat systems. This mod strictly modifies client-side Unreal Engine settings to enhance the game's behavior on your hardware. Features:
Multicore Rendering Optimization Tweaks threading behavior for better utilization of modern multi-core CPUs.
Reduced Mouse Input Latency Adjustments made to improve input responsiveness, especially for high-refresh monitors and low-latency gaming.
(Planned) Balanced Performance & Visual Tweaks Select Unreal Engine variables are tuned to increase FPS while preserving — or even improving — visual fidelity.
Anti-Cheat Safe This mod does not interact with executable files, memory, or any protected game logic. It only modifies user-accessible config files, making it safe for online use under current anti-cheat rules.
Installation Instructions:
Download and unzip the included Engine.zip file.
Navigate to: C:\Users\YOURUSERNAME\AppData\Local\DuneSandbox\Saved\Config\WindowsClient
Backup your existing Engine.ini file.
Replace it with the provided Engine.ini.
Tip: If the file doesn't apply properly, ensure the game isn't running and double-check the path. Some systems may hide file extensions by default.
Extra Tip:For best results, add the Dune: Awakening executable to Windows Graphics Settings and set it to High Performance. This ensures the game uses your dedicated GPU and avoids performance bottlenecks on hybrid systems like laptops.
Future Updates: I actively maintain this configuration and will roll out updates as new optimizations are tested and proven stable. Drawing from tuning experience in other Unreal titles like STALKER 2, I aim to squeeze every drop of performance or quality without compromise. Support: All donations made to this mod are 100% donated to the Wildlife Conservation Society, supporting global biodiversity and sustainable ecosystems. Feedback & Requests: Have a config request, performance issue, or visual tweak you'd like supported? Drop a comment. I review all feedback and may incorporate community-sourced ideas into future builds.
