Nvidia Control Panel Settings
Just go into your Nvidia Control Panel, find Set PhysX Configuration - GPU GTX-xxx
*To get to your Control Panel right click your desktop and it should be one of the options*
Then Manage 3D Settings -> Add -> Desktop -> Tera online.
Scroll down and find Vertical Sync - Force On
Triple Buffering - On
Threaded Optimization - On
Trilinear Optimalization - Off
Texture Filtering - Anisotropic sample opt... - Off
Power Managment mode - Prefer Maximum Performance
Maximum Pre-Rendered Frames - 3 (UE evolves around DirectX 9 which is recommendation for this to work )
Antialiasing Transparency - Multisample
Antialiasing Setting - 2x
Antialiasing Mode - Override any application settings ( this will use your preset values from the Nvidia Control Panel, rather then the Applications values, allow for advanced controlling )
Anisotropic Filtering - (choose 4x or 8x, 16x doesn't improve detail)
Texture Filtering - Negative LOD bias - Allow
In-Game Setting Changes
Due to the fact that the game renders stuff below you, and etc. We need to lower render distances. It wont affect almost anything, trust me. Expect increasing your FPS...
PC View Distance - 4
Distant Environment Detail - 4
Landscape - 3
Efect Distance - 3
Background Distance - 3
Rest maxed out ( just the Distance stuff )
Ini File Setting Changes
People with Low fps problems try this fix
1.) Go to C:\Program Files (x86)\TERA\Client\S1Game\Config
2.) Make a backup of the S1Engine file.
3.) Open up S1Engine
4.) Press F3 to use the search function to easily find the following lines and change them to the following settings.
Find:
UseMinimalNVIDIADriverShaderOptimization=True
Change To:
UseMinimalNVIDIADriverShaderOptimization=False
Find:
bDisablePhysXHardwareSupport=True
Change To:
bDisablePhysXHardwareSupport=False
After that close the file, rightclick it, select properties and check the box that says Read Only, press ok and do the same for all other S1 files in that folder so nothing gets changed automatically.
