Essential improvements
- All of the following tweaks are applicable also for Black Ops 4, and they may have similar names. This is due to the fact that in both games a relatively identical engine is used and it has been modified further for this game.
Skip intro videos
- You can also delete other videos to reduce the waiting time between level changes.
Increased loading speed levels
- Disabling FPS limit.
Edit config.ini[citation needed]
|
- Go to the configuration file location.
- Open
config.ini .
- Find the line
MaxFPS and set the value to 0 .
- Save your changes.
- Changing this option disables FPS limiting altogether, which increases the loading speed of the levels and also allows you to get a little more FPS than it was even at 1000. This also applies to other games, changing similar options also improves the speed of work, for example in Counter-Strike: Global Offensive.
|
Make all settings available
- Many graphics cards are able to handle high graphical settings, but by default the game hides/restricts some settings.
Edit config.ini[5]
|
- Go to the configuration file location.
- Open
config.ini with your file editor of choice.
- Find the line
RestrictGraphicsOptions and edit the value from 1 to 0 .
- Save your changes.
Notes
- If the game is installed in the default folder then you might need to run your file editor of choice as an administrator, or copy your config file to your desktop, make changes and replace original file.
|
Enable offline multiplayer with bots
- By default it's not possible to start multiplayer matches with bots in offline mode.
Start the game in mod mode
|
- Add
+set fs_game offlinemp to the game's start parameters.
- "offlinemp" here is just chosen examplarily, any name will work. The game thereby creates a new mod directory under \players\mods\ with separate configuration files.

- This game supports Universal Plug and Play (UPnP) for automatic port configuration.
VR support
Issues fixed
Stuttering
- Remove outdated file library
Delete d3dcompiler_46.dll[citation needed]
|
- Go to the folder with game.
- Remove
d3dcompiler_46.dll .
- Deleting this file does not affect the stability of the launch of the game. However, it is clearly outdated and does not allow the game to gain access to a newer version of the library from the Windows system, and blocks access to it, since it is located next to the game execution file.
|
- The game does not take advantage off the entire VRAM amount available.
Edit config.ini[citation needed]
|
- Go to the configuration file location.
- Open
config.ini .
- Find the line
VideoMemory and edit the value from 0.75 or 0.90 to 1 .
- Also check the parameter
StreamMinResident and change its value if required from 1 to 0 .
- Save your changes.
Notes
- This setting helps to reduce the frequency of accessing the main RAM and allows the game to use all the video memory. It also reduces the frame time and increases the smoothness of the gameplay with a decrease in control response time.
- On some configurations, these options can have a negative effect on performance, and in this case it's worthwhile to specify these values in the reverse order. This is due to the fact that these parameters also affect the drawing distance.
|
- Use Smooth Framerate.
Edit config.ini[citation needed]
|
- Go to the configuration file location.
- Open
config.ini .
- Find the line
SmoothFramerate and set the value to 0 from 1 .
- Save your changes.
- This setting helps to prevent a strong drop in frame rates at certain points and also increases the smoothness of the gameplay.
- May increase input lag and possibly performance degradation.
|
- Use Triple Buffering and Prepared frames.
Edit config.ini[citation needed]
|
- Go to the configuration file location.
- Open
config.ini .
- Find the line
MaxFrameLatency and set the value to 4 or 0 .
- Save your changes.
- And use D3DOverrider to force triple buffering on.
- This greatly increases the smoothness and also greatly prevents a drop in the frame rate.
- Usually the use of triple buffering only works with vertical sync enabled. But instead of using vertical synchronization, you can use FastSync in the settings of the NVidia video card driver, as well as turn off vertical synchronization in the settings of the game itself. A similar option for amd owners is called as Enhanced Sync. This mode will not limit the FPS, but also allows you to activate triple buffering.
- The use of a larger number of prepared frames and the use of a triple buffer may increase input lags.
|
- Also, the Game may unevenly load the processor on some configurations.
Edit config.ini[citation needed]
|
- Go to the configuration file location.
- Open
config.ini .
- Find the line
SerializeRender and edit the value from 0 to 2 .
- Save your changes.
- Perhaps this will cause a slight decrease in FPS, but will make it a stable and reduce the time frame, as will improve the responsiveness of management in general.
|
FPS Drops
- This is for copies on the Steam version of the game.
Launching the game in offline mode
|
- Open Steam and select the Steam menu in the top left.
- Select "Go Offline...".
- Select "ENTER OFFLINE MODE".
- Launch the game
- As the title suggests, you will be unable to use online services such as multiplayer, but in return you will receive tremendous performance boosts.
|
Game changes microphone gain at launch
Modify microphone gain ingame[11]
|
- Start up the game and open the menu, select OPTIONS and after select CHAT that has a headset icon.
- Change
Voice Chat Record Level to your preferred microphone gain.
|
Game crashes on startup
Add anti-virus exclusion[12]
|
- If you have either AVG or Avast!, they are known to cause the game to crash.
- Add the entire installation folder to the exclusion list on either anti-virus to fix
- For better result, need uninstall antivirus and disable built-in Windows Defender.
|
Add exception for Actual Window Minimizer or Actual Window Manager
|
- If you use either Actual Window Minimizer or Actual Window Manager, they will cause the game to crash.
- Add the main executable file to the exclusion list on either programme to fix.
|
The game causes the hang of the entire system and the computer itself completely before rebooting.
Move the paging file[citation needed]
|
- Right Click Computer → Choose Properties.
- Click Advanced System Settings.
- Performance Tab → Click Settings.
- Advanced Settings Tab → Virtual Memory -> Click Change.
- Uncheck Automaticaly manage page file.
- Clicking on disk will allow you to set paging file on any disk, except system.
- Set System managed size.
- Save you changes and reboot Windows.
- In fact, this problem is mainly related to the use of a cheap and low-quality SSD disk based on the type of TLC memory or hard disk with errors.
