Recommended settings
Upscaling — FSRQuality+35% FPS
World has no DLSS in the base game, but the resolution-scaling slider is the biggest GPU lever. (The free hi-res texture pack needs extra VRAM.)
Texture QualityFull-1% FPS
Surface sharpness. The Full (hi-res) pack is VRAM-hungry — on 8GB cards stick to High.
Volume Rendering QualityHighbaseline
Volumetric fog and dust — by far the heaviest setting in the game for a subtle effect. Set it to Low first for a big FPS jump.
Shadow QualityHighbaseline
Shadow resolution and range. High looks close to Max while running faster.
Foliage Sway / DetailMediumbaseline
Density and animation of jungle foliage — partly CPU-bound in busy zones. Medium is a safe trim.
Ambient OcclusionMediumbaseline
Soft contact shading. Medium is plenty.
