Also, re-check floating point render targets to get the proper colors back.

1080 on 20% usage...but waterfront not dipping to 70fps tho... so im good .-.

[MrM0dZ 55]

then you've never seen this

 

[SelttikS 224]

Why even play it with it looking that bad

[Poque 25]

That is some extreme graphic solutionFrom what i have experienced setting the game on minimal settings   within the advanced video settings is quite enough to reach a 80-90 fps ratio,how ever advanced launcher could boost you fps ratio a little bit depending on how much of game beauty you want to sacrifice in performance's favour.How ever when i experience fps drops or stutters usually i clean up my disk,defrag it and clean the dust and I'm not dropping bellow 95 fps on decent to medium settings,but again my pc is really slow.Maybe if i paint it red it will run faster

This can go much much worse.

that looks normal to me. every time i see a SS or a video this is how the "pros" play so your fine. 

[KnifuWaifu 499]

@ShadowXS  Can you post your settings here since OP closed the other thread you mentioned it in? We very much need it.

i played with it last night. Honestly the fps stutter is almost not there at all even in waterfront, so i can understand why they would still love to use the advanced launcher. Why i removed it? Bro you can turn off your gun muzzleflash... and it feels like cheating if you have  so much options with the advanced launcher than other vanilla players(like myself)...So i removed it...deleted it... lmfao

Look at how my fps runs in this video

and this was just the default minimal from the program...im sure there are better configs out there from the Pro's themselves

I only got Low Environment settings. rest is ultry, tho i could even play on ultra and still have 101 fps constantly.

[Lato 188]

The laucher has other settings, you know..

[magik 184]

Soo... my understanding, is that you ahve everything set to "default" values...

the default the advanced launcher gives you is below minimum... you need to bump it up. My recommendation is to set stuff to med or high, and base your choices off of that.

Coming Soon - NULL

 

 

Click Save and you're good to go. Feel free to mess around with other settings to get the best visuals with the best performance possible - these settings personally work amazingly for me, but every system is unique so don't be afraid to change things up here and there.  With my settings though; the game is decent looking in terms of textures for anything that is actually important and that you'll spend most of your playtime looking at - the rest is irrelevant (in my opinion). Let me know how these settings look and perform for you!

 

 

P.S. - I also have a custom NVIDIA Control Panel profile for APB, within the 'Manage 3D Settings' tab which I'm certain is responsible for giving me 10-15 fps increase, of the 100+ that i currently get thanks to advanced launcher. So if you're interested in that too, do the following; 

 

>Open NVIDIA Control Panel

>Click on 'Manage 3D Settings' below the '3D Settings' section at the top left of the Control Panel

>Click on the 2nd tab, named 'Program Settings'

>Select 'APB: All Points Bulletin (apbprogram)' on the scroll down menu (if APB is not on the scroll down menu, click the 'Add' button and locate apbprogram and then click on 'Add Selected Program')

 

Here are my current settings:

(I have HIGHLIGHTED the settings that are most crucial and important to change for the extra 10-15 fps boost, the rest are personal preference but feel free to copy this profile as it will only take effect with APB as it's a custom profile for that game and ONLY that game. And again, feel free to mess around with all these settings too - perhaps you're able to get better visuals and still get great fps, don't be afraid to test, increase settings for visuals, decrease if you want more fps, and so forth)

 

• Anisotropic Filtering - 2x
• Antialiasing FXAA - OFF
• Antialiasing Gamma Correction - ON
• Antialiasing Mode - Enhance the application setting
• Antialiasing Setting - 2x
• Antialiasing Transparency - OFF
• CUDA GPUs - None
• Maximum Pre-Rendered Frames - Use the 3D application setting
• OpenGL Rendering GPU - Auto-select
• Power Management Mode - Optimal power
• Shader Cache - ON
• Texture Filtering Anisotropic Sample Optimisation - ON
• Texture Filtering Negative LOD Bias - Clamp
• Texture Filtering Quality - Performance
• Texture Filtering Trilinear Optimisation - ON
• Thread Optimisation - Auto
• Triple Buffering - OFF
• Vertical Sync - OFF
• Virtual Reality Pre-Rendered Frames - 1

 

P.S.S. - I assume you know how the advanced launcher works so i haven't included instructions - but you can find installation videos on Youtube and there's a Readme file in the download. If you need the download link let me know and I'll send it your way via DM.

 

Good luck

Gonna quote you here too so you get the notification. Not sure if you're at all interested in this but i posted my settings that correlate to these visuals;

 

 

If your game looks worse or the same, and you're getting less than 100 fps, you might be interested in my post regarding settings, as per request of another user in this thread and another from the thread linked above.

 

 

Also gonna @Spudinskes as he had requested the settings for the same thing, in the previous thread.

Tried them, all of them, and it looks great, no more naked gumbys and black walls. I get about 28-35fps in game but as soon as someone chucks a grenade it crashes down to 15fps.

 

 

Thanks again, will tweak around but it is a great place to start.
