Fallout 4 0.283 ENBoost

[Bonnie Lass]

I feel like I should point out, GeForce Experience has improved a lot over the past six months. I don't think the program or its services cause performance issues anymore.

It's mainly there to provide ShadowPlay, which is by far the most performance-friendly way to capture video.

I recommend you give it a second chance Boris, it's not the POS it used to be.

Thanks for the patches!

Might be a stupid question, how do I download this patch? Do not see any download options since 0.280

Thanks.

Anyone that has problems with LOD textures/meshes loading up close change this in the falloutprefs.ini file;

fMeshLODLevel2FadeDist=999999
fMeshLODLevel1FadeDist=999999

change it into;

fMeshLODLevel2FadeDist=4000
fMeshLODLevel1FadeDist=8000

Now the basegame loads the textures and meshes fine, now i can play with ENBoost with all textures and meshes loading fine up close.
Also works without ENBoost in loading the highres textures and LOD0 meshes correctly.

Seems to happen with the launcher somehow sometimes.

EDIT: just changed some settings in the options on the Fallout launcher and i noticed that the game has set the values to 2FadeDist=4000 and 1FadeDist=8000,
so i guess that the launcher had messed up the first time i used it and now set the LOD fades correctly,
so if anyone has this LOD problem, check if these settings are set correctly by the game launcher, it will probably fix the Textures not loading correctly.
I read a lot of people have this problem on the internet, so it probably happens a lot..just a heads up.
That means that the setting i have given above is way too big probably, just set it to 4000 and 8000.

Report:
I would like to report that I got no performance differences or crash but I think it is as Boris said. Bottleneck issues for some.

GTX 980, i7-5820K, 16GB DDR4, Asus Rampage-V Extreme and Installed on Samsung 850 PRO 512GB SSD.
Installed on Windows 10 x64

Also, I have experience installed, Disabled the streaming service, No performance drop by that either.
Nor is MSI Afterburner causing issues (No OC, only custom fan profile for better cooling.)
I'm also using core temp during gaming to see Cpu temp. No issue there either.

So, to a conclusion.
Either a bottleneck or bad drivers or bad ini edits.
Could be crapwares too.

I recommend:
Installing Iobit Driver Booster 3 (Buy it for all the latest drivers, cheap too)
This one gave me performance and stability.
Close it before gaming.
Disable steam overlay for Fallout 4 only.

I Have a small request, Option to disable screenshot for enb.

I Do have something to give you tho, a simple but effective code for users to provide you with process info:

Batch code:

Code: Select all

@echo off
SET LOGFILE=log.txt
ping localhost -n 1 > NUL
call :Logit >> %LOGFILE% 
:Logit
TASKLIST /v /fi "STATUS eq running"
echo -----------------------------------------------------------------
echo -----------------------------------------------------------------
echo More info:
TASKLIST /svc
ping localhost -n 1 > NUL
exit

This creates a log.txt file with every process running including how much memory it takes and what users that started the process.

My log:

Well, after spending an hour to get out side again from a Quest that was in caves I can now test the new .283 build.

So far, I am not getting any radical frame drops as I was with the last build. Performance I would say it is not far off for me as it was with Vanilla.

Looks lovely, no stutters or CTD (yet)

So thumbs up for everything at this time.

Anyone that has problems with LOD textures/meshes loading up close change this in the falloutprefs.ini file;

fMeshLODLevel2FadeDist=999999
fMeshLODLevel1FadeDist=999999

I changed it into;

fMeshLODLevel2FadeDist=900000
fMeshLODLevel1FadeDist=400000

Now the basegame loads the textures and meshes fine, now i can play with ENBoost with all textures and meshes loading fine up close.
Also works without ENBoost in loading the highres textures and LOD0 meshes correctly.

Seems Bethesda has overlooked these errant settings.

999999 and 999998 would probably work too, it's probably just a confused engine with two LOD stages at the same integer value.

I just checked my ini and those settings are at (using slightly modified medium graphics preset):
fMeshLODLevel2FadeDist=4000
fMeshLODLevel1FadeDist=8000

I did notice one time that they were at 999999 though, not sure which setting made the numbers go that high, but I don't think they should be anywhere near that high. That distance is ridiculously far.

you are right, i just changed the god ray settings and the launcher has corrected it's error.
i edited my message.

after my search on the net i found that there are a lot of people with this problem, they'd be wise to check to see if those values are set to 4000 and 8000 respectively.
i have everything at Ultra, except for godrays and shadow distance, have godrays on medium and shadow distance to 5000.
Works beautifully now, no more lag anywhere.

Everything is working 100% for me. I have no noticeable FPS drain or bottle-necking. I'm using just a crap ton of HD textures (lots of 4k stuff), a super intensive Reshade preset, etc, and I get a steady 45fps. I'm using an AMD r9 290x with the latest beta drivers. Thank you so much for this Boris. Is there any information I can provide that will help? Seriously, thank you!

You can start by using my batch code on my post and post your process activity
This way boris can see the differences between working and not working presets.

I can't help with that.

Kobalk
That generated file is from GTA5, ignore it.

vikmgn
go to enbdev.com ->news->downloads->fallout4->choose version->download by pressing black button with arrow.

Gorgulla
Assign screenshot key to 1 or 255 to disable feature.

What i'm thinking of now, because performance differ so much for some users and for others it's not, may be it's cpu cache issue, any software or os reduce it a lot, so even very small part of the disabled code is much slower. Other than that different directx files because of win10 have lower performance.
