i'm so disappointed that this game doesn't have third person, how hard would it be to use the animations from the companions? lazy devs said they could not do it because they are not a triple A studio lol
can it not ever be that it just wasn't designed with that in mind why does everybody have to claim that everything they don't agree with is automatically laziness lol the game is better than anything bethesda has made in a good while anyway, that feature doesn't make or break it.
I would be grateful if they only focus on 1 perspective. Even with the 3rd person in Fallout 4 is bad. So many things doesn't correlated with the 1st person. And of course it would be takes time as well, it's not just plug and play you basically making another game with different perspective.
I found that out as well, it's something in Scalability.ini that does that.
A quick solution to it is to delete the lines: [ShadowQuality@0] r.Shadow.MaxResolution=0 r.Shadow.RadiusThreshold=0 r.ShadowQuality=0 r.Shadow.NearInstanceShadowOption=0
Any chance you can make a "mid performance" fix? because i still struggle with low settings but these are too low, if its too much effort nbd dont worry about it thank you for all your hard work though
I guess I found the problem, at least in my game. Open engine.ini to edit it (The one you download from here, either version), search for r.HighQualityLightMaps=0, and change it to 1. Like this " r.HighQualityLightMaps=1 " . I don't know how much it will affect the other modifications, but at least it should solve the darkness issue.
Thank you so much! i have amd 5 3600x and only a gtx 1050 (planning on upgrading soon) and the game would hiccup between 55 and 60 fps and that was SO ANNOYING lol

Upd: oh, I get it. It's just an "afk" camera like in bethesda games.
the game is better than anything bethesda has made in a good while anyway, that feature doesn't make or break it.
A quick solution to it is to delete the lines:
[ShadowQuality@0]
r.Shadow.MaxResolution=0
r.Shadow.RadiusThreshold=0
r.ShadowQuality=0
r.Shadow.NearInstanceShadowOption=0
r.Shadow.MaxCSMResolution=32

and look decent...
edit: As Alejo0708 suggested changing the value of "r.HighQualityLightMaps=" from 0 to 1 inside the engine.ini fixed this.
I don't know how much it will affect the other modifications, but at least it should solve the darkness issue.
