After turning on fraps for fallout 4 i realized that vsync is forced upon if you do not do anything. After turning vsync off my fps drops went away and i'm finally having some good smooth gameplay on ultra Nvidia AMD Source: Cheers and have fun! BUT THERE'S A CATCH. Turns out when you're lock picking the speed kinda matches what your current FPS is, so if your fps is wayyy up high the speed of your bobby pins are going to break really fast Your loading screens too! (the model of whatever is on there is going to spin really fast ) Warning: Just tried it, game will be sped up if you have fps>60. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ UPDATE *Fix for fallout 4 the hedgehog (game speeding up when you have fps>60)* Disabling mouse acceleration and evening out X and Y axis sensitivity Source: https://www.reddit.com/r/fo4/comments/3s..._limit_fps Edited December 1, 2015 by xnoobftw

It was necessary to reset all configurations to the simplest mode for optimal performance on my 270x. Even after that, the issue persisted.

Not ready just yet. I plan to attempt this later when I have extra time to work with the files, but I’ll share my findings soon.

This is awesome! Like I said before I had to drop the settings to the low presets to have a smooth frame rate before. After doing this I'm now playing on the ultra preset!! and my frame rate has gone up, before it was locked at 60 and dipped to the 30's now I've not gone lower than 60 and getting highs of 100 Really happy with this! On a side note I had a controller plugged in when I started the game and that stopped my K&M from working within the game. This was after I changed the files. So I went and undid everything I did. And my K&M still wasn't working. It was at this point I thought of the controller, so I unplugged it. And still my K&M still wasn't working!! So I then googled it and found out it was a bug. So yeah this took way longer than it should of

i7 and 390 are installed, but performance issues persist with significant FPS drops in crowded sections.

Shadow distance is the primary cause of FPS drops. Adjust it to a medium setting.

The lowest frame rate I've achieved has been around 35 or so in Diamond City. Did the settings let you turn off VSync? Yes, it did work for me.

Yes, I have. Diamond City is fine, but the surrounding areas and at the Corvega Factory and Lexington is where I get huge fps drops(40 and below).
