Upscaling — DLSSOff
Dying Light: The Beast (C-Engine) supports DLSS and FSR plus Frame Generation. A free FPS boost - enable it first.
Ray Tracing (GI / Reflections / Shadows)Offsaves FPS
Full ray-traced lighting, reflections and shadows - gorgeous in the open world but very heavy. Keep Off unless you have headroom and Frame Gen on.
Texture QualityUltra-1% FPS
Surface sharpness - cheap if it fits your VRAM.
View DistanceHighbaseline
How far the open world renders - a real cost given the parkour sightlines. High is a clean trade.
Shadow QualityHighbaseline
Shadow resolution and range. High is the value pick.
Foliage QualityHighbaseline
Plant and tree density in the overgrown world. A real cost outdoors.
Particles QualityHighbaseline
Blood, fire and combat effects. Lowering smooths the zombie swarms at night.
Contact ShadowsOnbaseline
Fine shadows where objects meet surfaces. A small saving when off.
Ambient OcclusionMediumbaseline
Soft contact shadows for depth. Medium is a cheap, good-looking option.
Anti-AliasingHighbaseline
Edge smoothing. Medium keeps the image clean cheaply.
