- Slightly reduced image sharpness [Portable / Dock]
- Texture filtering changed from linear to anisotropic 8x [Portable / Dock]
- Increased the distance of static LODs [Portable / Dock]
- Increased the range of drawing objects [Portable / Dock]
- Increased resolution of dynamic shadows [Portable / Dock]
- Increased the range of drawing dynamic shadows [Portable / Dock]
- Increased the range of light rendering [Portable / Dock]
- Enabled global dimming [Portable / Dock]
- Enabled DoF [Portable / Dock]

- Enabled sun rays [Portable / Dock]
- Increased quality of SSR reflections [Portable]
- Increased quality of materials [Portable / Dock]

- Increased amount of grass [Portable / Dock]
- Some minor changes [Portable / Dock]

Minimum for portable mode: 1.2 CPU / 537 GPU /1600 RAM

ECLIPSE00074 has updated his config to 1.2:

" Updating the config to version 1.2 : 09/06/20

- Changed sharpness from 0.5 to 0.75
- The number of samples TAA smoothing reduced to 2 to reduce flickering in some places

- Maximum dynamic resolution threshold - 100% [Portable / Dock]
- Changed sharpness from 0.5 to 0.75 [Portable / Dock]

EDIT: I have added a few more configs of my own and merged them with the 1.2 update from ECLIPSE00074.

Sharpness 1: Sharpness has been changed from 0.75 to 1 to make it less blurry. [Portable / Dock]

Always Max Resolution+Sharpness 1: It will always run at max resolution and has a sharper image. Do not expect it to run good, it's only for screenshots or eye candy. [720p Portable / 1080p Dock]

I will begin to do the same...just downloading the game...i wanna help...

--------------------- MERGED ---------------------------

I want to help to...just downloading the game...

 

[Reploid]

Someone would. UE4 game, so it won't be too hard

 

[Loonelywolf]

Yes...i think the problem is fps wise...

 

[masagrator]

Edit: wrong game. XD
Nvm.

 

[jnl1]

yes, would appreciate this

 

[jeka467]

I hope someone will do something with antialiasing, cos it's just to blurry. Even with overclock it's blurry

 

[Loonelywolf]

Its true...but i cant find the config ini for the game...

 

[burhansalih]

it needs something graphically its shocking

 

[cucholix]

The game struggles to run on Switch with the actual resolution, any resolution increase would kill performance. I say this game is a lost cause.

 

[Loonelywolf]

True...

 

[mss1988]

The best graphics mod for Outer Worlds is:
- Install Moonlight-NX on Switch,
- Install game on PC,
- Play!

 

[Chrisssj2]

3x the GPU speed overclock should do something with the framerate.. just need to able to edit texture quality and or blur/ aa options

 

[Loonelywolf]

I dont find the config files...

I really get what you say, but I don't have a PC, at least not one that could run the game and I believe alot of other people have the same situation. So stop being salty like a 10 yrs old little girl

How probable is it for private division to release a patch for these issues themselves? It's usually what happens with these types of ports.

That's very dumb to say. If they are gonna charge for this game, as a customer I have full right of complaining if the final product is bad.
So, if you don't like this topic, just stay away and let the adults talk, boy.
