![]() Put Graphics on High/Very High and Clouds to OFF/Medium ( usually no performance difference between the two ). For example with 16GB, you may want to enter Initial Size of 16384 MB, and Maximum size of 32768 MB. Windows attempts to do this automatically but it can freak out because Star Citizen, which means you'll have to adjust it manually. Select every other drive (the one’s without star citizen on it) and select No paging file.Select System managed size and press Set to apply the change.Select the drive with Star Citizen installed.Deselect the Automatically manage paging file size for all drives box at the top. ![]() In the new window, go to the Advanced tab and under the Virtual memory section, click on Change.Choose Adjust the appearance and performance of Windows.Go to the Start Menu and click on Settings.(Hehe this is basically downloading ram but real). Windows may or may not have it enable by default, but please ensure you have at least 30gb of storage free on your ssd. ![]() The game often utilizes over 20gb of ram, resulting in the game crashing or straight up refusing to launch if you do not have enough available.Ī pagefile can be used as a temporary solution as it will use your ssd as virtual ram, albeit relatively slow. (spawn buildings and such) Please don't hesitate to ask for help or clarification on why you're still getting low or unstable fps after following this guide below. Good news is that performance does get better the farther you are away from the congested areas of cities. Why? This is due to the insane amounts of assets being constantly loaded and unloaded all at once in these areas. (FPS is worse in Orison due to volumetric clouds. Even an older gen SATA SSD will do the job.ĭon’t expect high framerates near cities, Ie. Their near non-existent latency that helps with stuttering and dipping (10-15ms for a mechanical drive vs 0.025-0.100ms for a ssd). The biggest win when swapping from HDD to SSD is the "random read" speed of the drive. (This may also apply to slow external drives, as well as SSHD's) HDD’s simply dont have the speed of random reads and writes to keep up with everything loading in, resulting in bugged or low res textures or just missing parts of the world like floor panels opening into the void. On a mechanical hard drive, this results in what's known as "thrashing", and is terrible for the life of your drive, as well as performing terrible. SSD is a requirement because Star Citizen is utilizing a technology (OCS) that constantly streams assets from your Storage space (ssd) into your game engine to make instant use of the data while you are flying around. Do not even bother trying to play on a hard disk drive. A Solid State Drive (SSD) is a requirement. ![]()
