Go to <path-to-game>\SwGame\Content\Movies. Rename or remove Default_Startup.mp4 and Default_Startup_Loop.mp4. Notes A game update will likely restore the files. The screen will be black while the main menu is being loaded, but overall there is a decrease in launch time.

Enable low settings

Enable low settings

Go to the video settings and change any of the settings so that Graphics Quality is changed to Custom. Select Graphics Quality (press Space ␣ on keyboard) and while it is set to Custom press Esc (or B / Circle if using a controller). If done correctly, the value of Graphics Quality and all other settings should change to Low (or Off in the case of Anti-aliasing). Change one of the individual settings to another value, such as Medium. This is necessary to allow the values on the other settings to take effect, as otherwise the game will still use their previous value. The easiest way of confirming whether the values have been applied correctly is to either check for either of the following: Anti-aliasing Off results in noticeable aliasing in the game world. Shadow Quality Low results in blocky character shadows in the game world, and the presence of dark eyes on the character in the Abilities and Customization menu screens. Notes If Graphics Quality gets changed again the process must be repeated.

Disable anti-aliasing

Edit GameUserSettings.ini
Go to %LOCALAPPDATA%\SwGame\Saved\Config\WindowsNoEditor\ Open GameUserSettings.ini with Notepad. Find sg.AntiAliasingQuality=3 at the very bottom under "ScalabilityGroups" and change it to 0. Available options are 3 (Epic), 2, 1 and 0 (Disabled). To disable it via the in-game settings, see Enable low settings.

Post-processing

Disable depth of field

Use Universal Unreal Engine 4 Console Unlocker
Use the Universal Unreal Engine 4 Console Unlocker to access the developer console of the game. Enter r.DepthOfFieldQuality 0.

Disable motion blur

Screenshot showing object-based motion blur with the default, reduced and disabled setting.

Use Universal Unreal Engine 4 Console Unlocker

Use the Universal Unreal Engine 4 Console Unlocker to access the developer console of the game. Enter r.DefaultFeature.MotionBlur 0. Notes The in-game menu toggle only disables camera motion blur. However a bug may cause this setting to not work at all. The console command disables both camera and object-based motion blur, the latter of which may not be as desirable (see screenshot comparison). To simply reduce the overall effect, the command r.MotionBlur.Scale 0.3 can be used (default is 1).

Issues unresolved

Corrupt save game

Users have reported issues where the save game can become corrupt if something affects the save process of the game, resulting in non-working saves and lost progress.

Possible fix: Restore the backup save game[citation needed]
Navigate to Save game data location. Create a copy of the whole save folder on another location so a backup is available. Rename or delete SaveGame00.sav Rename Backup00.sav to SaveGame00.sav Run the game and see if the backup save can be read.

===High CPU Usage Fix=== (I don't know how to properly format, someone please do it properly, thank you)
