dukemordred Posted December 5, 2015 Posted December 5, 2015 Hey all, For some reason, inside the Institute is the only place in the whole game where my FPS drops even to 20. There is no other place where my FPS drops to anything below 40, and even that is rare, mostly I can hold 50-60. I have tried the fog remover mods and the lower texture ones, they don`t do anything for this whole area. Has anyone else experienced this? Any Ideas?
Vulon Posted December 5, 2015 Posted December 5, 2015 Same here -- The Institute is the only place that consistently gut-punches my fps. I posted a similar thread a while back and never got a response. I'd like to know what the deal is, as well.
Sdesser Posted December 5, 2015 Posted December 5, 2015 Got the same problem. Everywhere else is pretty much playable (50+ FPS), but inside the Institute the game stutters like crazy.
NCRForever Posted December 5, 2015 Posted December 5, 2015 I have no issues insode of the Institute, except near the dang gorillas. Go figure.
dukemordred Posted December 6, 2015 Author Posted December 6, 2015 Well at least I`m not the only one. If anyone Identifies what exactly is causing it please post.
Higgenboober Posted December 6, 2015 Posted December 6, 2015 Yeah its crazy-- everywhere indoors I get 72fps but in the institute it stutters like mad and gets in the forties sometimes. What the hell is it? Is it all the reflective stuff or what?

Any Ideas?Too many lights at the same time.At least thats what it looks like to me.
dukemordred Posted December 8, 2015 Author Posted December 8, 2015 (edited) I was thinking that the lights and all the reflective surfaces are to blame but that is just guessing. But if they are, how do we fix it? We need some solid info from someone who is more knowledgeable Edited December 8, 2015 by dukemordred
dukemordred Posted December 10, 2015 Author Posted December 10, 2015 I tried the ini tweaks related to reflections that worked in other games, they don`t seem to do anything here. How are not more people crying about this? I see many with potato PCs using textures even lower than 512 to get their game to work, all them haven`t gotten to the Institute yet?
UhuruNUru Posted December 10, 2015 Posted December 10, 2015 If you don't have an i7 or equivalent, your game is maxing out the CPU. You are most likely only seeing this In specific spots and even then, maybe only one direction. Upgrading is the only long term cure and it's not just Fallout 4. Why only now, is this new?Not really, in fact this is normal. The last 10 years of 32-bit gaming on 64-bit machines, has led to the proverbial "runs on a potato", quotes.Well no longer, can you just upgrade the GPU on that potato. Now you must upgrade the potato as well. To run the latest AAA games you must now upgrade both, about every three years. So alternating upgrades every 18 months, is once again the general guidance. Just like it was when, most PC's were 32-bit. It's not so much about being 64-bit, it's more about the massive increase in available memory that 64-bit provides.All modern CPU's had no problems with the 32-bit 4GB limit. Now the increase makes those with less power fail to cope.
