| + | {{--}} Doesn´t work with the DirectX 12 version of the game. Can exacerbate stuttering during level/match loading screens as the cpu is utilized on all cores to 100%. The Shader Cache has to be compiled again once a display driver has been uninstalled or updated due to the display driver´s shader cache being deleted/reset in the update/uninstall process. It is recommended to wait 10 to 30 seconds in the main menu before searching a game each time the game has to compile shaders again upon bootup. Usually on the first time of starting the game and each time after a driver installation or update. Can take 10 sec to 1 minute depending on CPU core/thread amount and speed. | ||
