    Disregard this. Figured out my external drive placement issue.

    Great mod, wonderful improvement in visuals and performance. Thank you!
  4. Fps seems decent enough but i don't know why it looks like this with the second main file, can it be fixed? (these are ultra settings btw)

      Yes! Change your Anisotropy from 0 or 4 to back to 8! 
      I went lower with my anti-aliasing because I'm using DLAA with zero upscaling! 
      I do realize my prefered settings are not for everyone! 
      Sorry for the grainy outcome of the settings mismatch! 
      Hope the information helps resolve the issue.
    2. hey, thanks for a reply, however the effect still persists unfortunately

      Turn off HDR ingame. I have no made a version that uses HDR instead I used the built in shaders of unreal engine to simulate a fake hdr experience. this might be why the game is so dark with HDR turned on.

    Hello, I'd like to report that Professor Mirabel Garlick's Topshelf Vanilla Snake Oil makes the game run sooo much better but I seem to get the green square as well, as reported by the users of the other file, when using accio, depulso and incendio, and a few others, i think.

    I'm running the game at medium everything on my GTX 1050 laptop with 8gb ram and intel 17. This engine ini for my potato is the smoothest one Ive ever found, so I really hope u could fix it and make it better. Thanks.

      <3 Please wait a little longer! 
      Edit: Vanilla has been updated! no more green square! please let me know if this is running smoothly! 
      it's very different from original!

    Oil #2 also has the same problem with the green square showing up that nymphatica mentioned on some spells. The most noticeable ones are accio, glacius, and incendio; on incendio its more in the center ring of the flame rather than the tip of the wand. Other than that, the game looks and runs amazing! Your work is very much appreciated! :D

      :< I have had a heck of a time with the oil! 
      accidentally made a big spill. unfortunately the last batch might
      not have been the best. I will be temp freezing experimental sales
      in favor of stable sales ♥

      Thank you for testing!

    I tried the newest  “Professor Garlick's Ultra Unreal Snake Oil (EXPERIMENTAL)”
    Accio effect becomes a green square.
    When I went back to previous update accio was normal.

      I am gonna fix it ! 
      I just figured out how to 
      convert dev console input argument results 
      to editable text file results ! 

      I can now input all 
      UE4 cvars and get default output data
      which I will then use to tweak this game! 
      TO PERFECTION! 
       and then I will go level beyond 20.. ♥


      ~FACT:
      After reading the first book
      I tore into the second SO GOOD
      then started the third~ 
      Read the front of the inside of the cover
      Installment 3 of 7. 
      CRIED. Literally CRIED.
      because I knew that meant no more 
      would come after 7. 

      This was when the books were brand new to the market~

      We now have 9, this game makes 10

      10 POTTER WORLD EXPERIENCES WITCHES AND WIZARDS ! 

      10 LUXURIOUS FUN FEEL THRILLS~

    Hello guys! I want to give a HUGE thank you for making the game look so amazing!
    I sadly suffer bad framedrops (my game also launches very slow and can't have anything else run on my second monitor ;_; ), is there a way I can fix this? ; v ; I have a Radeon RX 6700 XT (if this helps at all hghgjgj)

      strange youre running a card
      that on paper
      reports that it is better
      than my normal 2080 RTX card. 

      If you're interested in fixing the issue.
      it starts with removing probable cause.
      slow launch could be from too many mods
      that have been installed and uninstalled

      there's a cache directory in programdata for
      Hogwarts Legacy that contains all the
      compiled shaders.
      Usually 1-3gb+
      worth of shaders.

      Delete
      %programdata%\hogwarts legacy
      and then re-launch the game. 

      This will rebuild
      all of your shaders
      brand new
      possibly speeding up load time. 

      Delete your crash logs in 
      %appdata%\local\hogwarts legacy\saved\logs,
      %appdata%\local\hogwarts legacy\saved\crashes,
      %appdata%\local\hogwarts legacy\saved\config\crashreportclient

      relaunch the game

      Yeah, it's super annoying, I bought it just for the game. ;_; Sadly, the loading has gotten even worse, and the framedrops are still bad. ;_; I don't know what else to do..... :'<

      UPDATE: I restarted my PC, and am running everything on Ultra now, with "none" Upscaling. It seems to working fine!
      UPDATE#2: Somehow when I launched it later today, my game is still lagging and drops frames like crazy. When I turn the camera to look, it looks like the game is being chopped vertically (when turning the camera right and left) or horizontally (vice-versa). :(

      I am having the same chopping issues. I do apologize. I will be working on a fix all day. I'm also working on creating a unreal project file for hogwarts legacy. prioritization is difficult.

      new oil doesnt resolve the underground clipping issues but
      new oil does work really good.

      the underground camera cave clipping issues
      is a game bug

      as far as I can tell
      even running everything completely vanilla

      will not remove this bug

      Hey tollimus! I see now. I was just worried if my PC/card wasn't doing the best performence, but it is a relief that it's not a bad card at least ; v ;
      And thank you for taking your time to find the solutions! I am sorry if this caused you much stress ;;;
      I really love your mod and cannot thank you guys enough for the amazing work you did!

      Please provide more detail I have not gone beyond lv14-18 area mobs, if you can provide the area I will go there and see what I can do about increasing the frames per second delivery.

      Dear Mr Horn Devil,

      Please try the new Vanilla Snake Oil
      Should work for most potatoe PCs
      but I need public test feedback to know for sure.

      Hi, I checked the game with your mod. the picture has gotten better, but the twitching of the frames still remains, maybe it's dx12? maybe try through the volcano with your mod?! I don't have a top-end graphics card, but the 2080 RTX should pull without RTX without losing fps...

      twitching frames underground are present in game without mods 
      :( I discovered this today. I do not know the fix. 

      Please let me know if you find one. 

      Thankfully not all areas have this weird glitch. 

      I tried to delete my hogwarts legacy programdata and my whole saved folder
      problem did not go away
      :(
