fShadowDistance=0

 

mine says iShadowMapResolution=512

 

So do you mean change iShadowMapResolution=512 to iShadowMapResolution=1?

 

I'll definitely do this, I usually turn off shadows in my games anyway, they're Frame Rate Killers and they don't help me with

"Immersion" anyway.

YES!

 

I did that, turned 512 to 1 !

 

and my FPS went from 1 back up to the 30s and 40s.
