Issues unresolved

Separate vertical and horizontal sensitivity with mouse

Vertical and horizontal sensitivity do not match, with vertical being much lower, making it hard to aim with a mouse and keyboard.[citation needed]

Issues fixed

Low frame rate

Low frame rate fix[citation needed]
There are several performance demanding options that can be lowered/disabled without providing a noticeable graphic loss.
  • Disabling high precision.
  • Disabling TressFX technology by setting hair to normal. TressFX has major impact on frame rate, especially on non-AMD GPUs.
  • Setting Screen space ambient occlusion (SSAO) to normal. "Ultra" Ambient Occlusion setting stands for HDAO, AMD's AO technology, and may cause major performance loss in NVidia videocards.[11][12]
  • Setting AA to FXAA is recommended as it provides barely no performance loss, while SSAA is very demanding.
  • Setting shadows option under Ultra.
  • Running game in DirectX 9 mode.

Flickering and crashing with SLI or CrossFire

Flickering fix[13]
  • Set Vsync option to Off on Advanced settings of the Launcher.
  • Disable tessellation.

Crashing to desktop and issues with minimizing game

Crashing to desktop fix[13]
  • Disable Exclusive Fullscreen option.
  • Disable any "RAM optimizer" or "Game Booster" programs you may have (generally get rid of the bloatware running).

Static noise from music and ambient sound in the game

Update drivers to your sound card[13]
Disable hardware acceleration on sound card[citation needed]
  1. Open Control panel in Windows.
  2. Go to Sound & Audio > Audio Tab > Advanced > Performance.
  3. Set slider to None.

Strange graphics as screen is like a broken glass may appear at certain points during the game

Change a Graphics options value[citation needed]
  1. Enter graphics options.
  2. Change high precision to any other value. Apply changes.
This fix must be applied each time the issue appears.
The option can be set to its previous value again without re-triggering the bug.

Performance boost for quad core CPUs (and higher core count)

This tweak reportedly wields higher framerate in seemingly CPU-heavy areas like the Shantytown hub through better core utilisation.
Registry tweak for multi-core (4+ cores) CPUs[15]
  1. Go to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Crystal Dynamics\Tomb Raider\Graphics
  2. Right Click anywhere in the empty space and select New > DWORD (32-bit) Value
  3. Name the new value MultiCoreFlushMode then double click on it and change the value data to 1.
In the Linux version, this option is already automatically applied.[citation needed]

Force DirectX 9 renderer on DirectX 11 systems

Forcing DirectX 9 on Windows may result in better performance. However, DirectX 11 specific features (tessellation, TressFX) will be disabled. These steps are not for OS X or Linux (the game will not work correctly).
DX9 renderer[citation needed]
  1. Go to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Crystal Dynamics\Tomb Raider\Graphics
  2. Modify RenderAPI value to 9.

Notes

Revert to 0 for DX11, anything else will result in DX11 renderer with some DX11 features disabled.

Performance difference between DirectX 9 and 11 renderer

Based on ingame benchmark with DirectX 11 features (tessellation, TressFX) disabled for both renderers.

In some cases, a reduction in performance may even occur. Benchmark your own system before dedicating to a renderer.[16]
DirectX 9 DirectX 11 Difference [%]
Minimum FPS 42.06 35.88 17.22%
Maximum FPS 66.04 52.68 25.36%
Average FPS 56.68 44.74 26.69%

Tested on Intel Core i7 with HD6870 GPU, average of five measurements for each renderer.[17]

QTE streamlining

Many quick time events (QTEs) do not display the key required to complete them.
However, if you are actively using an Xbox 360 controller or other XInput-compatible controller, the game will display controller button names and colors as normal.

List of QTEs and possible solutions:

QTE Icon Solution
Hand in red circle Repeatedly press interact key (default E) as fast as possible.
Exclamation mark in red diamond. Press melee key (default F).
White circle getting smaller Tap repeatedly melee key (default F). This QTE is bugged - circle animation is out of sync with trigger behind QTE and therefore it is difficult win this QTE normally. Luckily there is no penalization for missing said trigger with key press so pressing melee key for whole duration of QTE works perfectly.
Left and right arrow Alternately press left and right movement keys (default A and D).
Hand in red circle when Lara is hanging from ledge Press interact key (default E).
Bypass mashing keys[citation needed]
You can replace key mashing QTE for just one key press, however you need gaming mouse or keyboard software with ability to create macros.
This guide contains only general directions. Actual process may vary as there are several versions of gaming software.

1. Open you macro/gaming software and create new macro.

2. Record single key press and make sure there are delays between action at least 20ms. It should look something like this for E key:

Key E down
20ms delay
Key E up
20ms delay

3. Set this macro to the desired key and set option to "repeat macro as long as pressed".

Notes

If your macro is not working properly, try increasing delay as some systems won't recognize key presses if they are too fast.

Benchmark mode

Benchmark mode generates a file named: benchmarkresults yyyy-mm-dd hh-mm-ss.txt
Benchmark from in-game options menu[citation needed]
Benchmark from Steam[citation needed]
  1. Right click on game in Library.
  2. Select Properties.
  3. Click Set Launch Options and add parameter (see command line arguments).
Benchmark via shortcut[citation needed]
  1. Create shortcut to TombRaider.exe
  2. Right click shortcut and select Properties.
  3. At Target line add parameter at the end of the string (see command line arguments).

Command line arguments

When running from the command line, exclusive fullscreen is automatically switched on and vsync is switched off.
When running as a looping demo, a result file is not generated.
See command line arguments on how to use the following options.
Parameter Description
-benchmark Run the benchmark on startup and quit the game when finished.
-benchmarkini “filename.ini” Run the benchmark on startup and quit the game when finished. The ini file contains overrides for quality settings.
-loop Loop the benchmark instead of quitting after it completes. This is a demo mode, so statistics are disabled.
-dxdiag Include dxdiag information in the benchmarkresults file.
