Squeezing more performance from the Outriders PC demo – Read Description!



The Outriders demo is currently available on PC, but being that it is a demo, there are performance issues. Compounding this, there are settings that can’t be changed in-game, resulting in an underwhelming experience. In this video, we’re going to show you how to edit the gameusersetting.ini file so that you can directly make changes to the game, and ultimately boost your in-game performance. **Many of these settings will be added to the completed game, so you won’t (hopefully) need to do this with the release version**
These settings will benefit anyone at any resolution, and this video, we were playing at 2560×1440.

Add these settings to the bottom of the GameUserSettings.ini.

[SystemSettings]
r.BlurGBuffer=0 //Disables blur, recommend leaving this off
r.FastBlurThreshold=0 //Disables blur, recommend leaving this off
r.DefaultFeature.Bloom=0 //Disables bloom, recommend leaving this off
r.DepthOfFieldQuality=1 //Disables depth of field, I enabled it but can affect performance.
r.EyeAdaptationQuality=0 //Disables Adaptive Exposure, recommend leaving this off
r.FullScreenMode=1 //Exclusive Fullscreen, recommend leaving this on
r.LensFlareQuality=0 //Disables lens flare, recommend leaving this off
r.MotionBlur.Max=0 //Sets motion blur amount, recommend leaving this off
r.MotionBlurQuality=0 //Disables motion blur, recommend leaving this off
r.Tonemapper.Sharpen=1 // Makes image sharper, from 0 – 1, in .5 increments.
r.DefaultFeature.AntiAliasing=0 // 0 for off, 1 for FXX, 2 for TAA, 3 for MSAA
r.TemporalAACurrentFrameWeight=0 //used to set the impact of the current internal frame on the final image. Leave at 0.
Setting r.DefaultFeature.AntiAliasing to 0 disables AA, setting it to 1 enables FXAA, 2 enables TAA, and 3 enables MSAA. I’d leave it at zero and adjust accordingly.

Besides these settings, we also recommend you setting your framerate to 60 frames per second using RTSS (https://www.guru3d.com/files-details/rtss-rivatuner-statistics-server-download.html). This way you don’t have to worry about the in-game frame rate limiter, which doesn’t appear to be working.

  1. The game uses Dynamic Resolution to keep the FPS high.
    If you encounter changing blurry pixelated Resolution on weak GPU-cards (I got a GTX 1070 here) you can disable Dynamic Resolution (if you don't mind framedrops).
    Just add
    r.DynamicRes.OperationMode=0
    to the [SystemSettings] section in "Engine.ini"
