Recommended settings
Upscaling — FSRBalanced+55% FPS
Render resolution scaling is the biggest GPU-side FPS lever — handy on weaker hardware, though this game already runs well on modest rigs.
Tree / Foliage QualityLow+13% FPS
The dense forest is the heaviest setting. Lowering it is the biggest FPS gain among the trees.
Shadow QualityOff+10% FPS
Shadow resolution and range. Medium is a strong, cheap step down from High.
Draw DistanceLow+9% FPS
How far the world renders. Lowering it causes mild pop-in on distant trees.
Water QualityLow+6% FPS
Ocean and lake detail. A cheap saving with little visible loss.
Ambient OcclusionOff+4% FPS
Soft contact shadows. Cheap and subtle — safe to turn off.
Texture ResolutionHighbaseline
Surface detail — nearly free if it fits your VRAM. Fine at High on most cards.
Anisotropic Textures16xbaseline
Keeps the ground sharp at distance. Effectively free — leave it at 16x.
