Final Fantasy XV Windows Edition PC performance thread

- Start date
I7 7820X
32 Gigs DDR4 3467mhz
GTX1080 Ti
Gsync Asus 27" 1440P native.
Running Windows 10. All settings maxed out in the ingame settings. Activated High Specs Assets via config file. Applied a reshade preset. And finally, added extra options from Luminous tool. No K special crap. Runs worse with it for me.
Getting between 50-80 fps everywhere!! I'm on chapter 6. Here is a little clip I made with Nvidia Shadowplay. Please consider that it plays about 10 fps more without the recording.

If I don't oversample, I can turn on every nvidia effects except vxao, shadows @high and TRAM @high. Everything else is maxed out. It is worth it, to me..
Has the atrociously bad stuttering from the demo been fixed? And I don't mean the bad frame-pacing that makes even a solid 60 feel inconsistent, I mean the actual huge multiple-frame stutters when traversing by foot or during fights. And no, it's not the input device switching stutters since those last even longer and you can see the UI change.
I tried using SpecialK with the demo but I don't think it works properly. Honestly it seems like it runs even worse. With the performance I'm getting out of the demo, stuttering-wise, the game is completely unplayable and one of the worst PC ports I've seen in the last 10 years.
I have an MSI GT62VR. GTX1070 8GB, SSD, 16GB DDR3, i7 6700hq. Fully updated nVidia drivers and Windows 10. Tried G-Sync on and it caused even more issues so I'm keeping it off. This kind of performance on this kind of setup is just unacceptable.

After playing around with the game at 1440p now, running at a locked 60fps w/ VXAO enabled seems just out of reach on my GTX 1080. A shame, too, since it makes such a huge difference.
Okay that's odd, sadly I can't really help you more there since I don't have a G-sync monitor :/ Maybe write it as a bug-report to Square?
The Special K mod makes the game run worse for me. I just tested it standing in this spot:
Without the mod I get constant 60 FPS regardless of where I'm pointing the camera. With the mod, I get drops to 52 FPS when looking in certain directions.

There's no way you're not dropping frames below 60 with a 1080 @1440p even with those settings
I'm also playing @1440p with a 1080 (+6700k, both OC, and with a SSD) at similar settings but without any gameworks option and am currently at chapter 3 and this area for example is really demanding, I can drop in the low 50s - high 40s at times with multiples ennemies on screen
Without HairWorks enabled, I definitely stay at 60 in that area. Also, I never said it's a locked 60fps 100% of the time. I certainly don't drop into the 40s however.
Altissia witg VXAO is really demanding, tanks the fps even more than Duscae. Would make for some amazing screenshots, if they would fix the Ansel water bug.
Guys, if you are not using LumaSharpen, you're doing it wrong. I'm playing @1080p 110% and I really can't imagine a smoother image. Allowed me to come down from 125% which really helped with the performance.

God i hate that they basically tied every post processing effect to "Filtering" i just can't keep it enabled cause the blur and DOF kills my eyes but if i set it to low i also disable nvidia flow and some other pp effects i would like to keep, i tried enabling flow separately in the luminous config tool which actually works but this also automatically sets filtering back to average and enables all the other crap again, i probably just have to life without it until someone figures out how to mod these shaders.
So do some effects close to the camera cause anyone elses fps to tank into single digits? When the optional boss in the dungeon where the ever illustrious regalia quest takes place casts the toad spell my frames dropped to like 5 with a gtx 1080.
Some specific enemies also make my framerate tank (1080 Ti at 1440P or 4K). Ice and fire effects mostly. Probably running on CUDA threads?
Turned it off and everything looked awful though :-/
Especially grass.
Downloading now! Gonna try it out. Does it work with Special K? If not, I'll uninstall Special K for now.
Not sure if it works with Special K, because Special K still refuses to work for me, but it is redundant really as long as you disable Steam overlay manually and don't switch between mouse/keyboard and joystick all the time.
VXAO will take you a giant hit in the cities
It's not feasible VXAO right now with the current gen hardware.
Traded in my RX 470 for a GTX 1060 (paid $70 on top). Gonna see what kind of a difference that extra 2GB VRAM is going to make. Keeping my expectations in check, but I'm hopeful =P
With the latest Special L and AMD Drivers, I've been able to keep a mainly consistent 60fps during gameplay (only dropping to 45 at lowest during certain cutscenes). Been experimenting with threads to find the best balance of performance vs. stuttering.
Will try the game without framecap and AMD Enhanced Sync later on.

so much gpu/cpu spikes in altissia and lots of drops :V
fuck dropping settings though i'll live with it

Do you mind explaining the right way to disable to the steam overlay?
It´s the filtering. Set it to low and you`ll get a crisper image but you loose some neat effects. So just try Sweetfx/Reshade.
Right click on the game, go to properties, general tab, disable Steam overlay while in game.
Unfortunately not there is a special version of Reshade for Special K but i never got it work either.
Btw there is another method to add sharpening with a negative LOD which should work pretty well with TAA blur in Nvidia Inspector:
- Select the driver profile settings button
- Set the profile to "Final Fantasy XV" from the drop down.
- Set Anti Aliasing mode to "Override any Application setting" and set "Antialiasing - Transparency Supersampling" to "AA_MODE_REPLAY_MODE_ALL"
- Set "Texture filtering - LOD Bias (DX) to whatever you like -1 to -1.5 should be enough more then that can be pretty demanding (and too sharp).
- Hit Apply and close the inspector

I'm so sad I had to turn off VXAO to keep closer 60 once I hit Duscae, it looked so nice...
The only place I really see my 1080 hitting 100% is while driving in Duscae. I haven't hit Altissia yet, but I can imagine it could be a heavy hitter with how dense it is.
I also had drops into the low 50s during the
Maybe all the effects? I'm not sure exactly

Mindflayer fight at the end of the ice cave behind the waterfall near Listallum

Beware that even by disabling Steam overlay, I still get crashes.
If I play at 1440p, I can play for lot's of hours.
At 4K resolution, I last up one hour only before crashing.
I have 16GB of RAM and a 1080 Ti so I shoulnd't be memory starved. Also using Special K.
Squeenix really needs to fix this.

60 hours and still no crash. I'm starting to wonder if my copy is actually an anomaly.
I play it 100% with a controller in big picture mode, if that makes any difference.

I don't get any crashes either regardless of how much I play. Well, I got one once when maxing up absolutely everything to see how it looked, crashed instantly when applying, but after restarting the game it worked fine maxed out. Probably a glitch. Other than that, zero crashes.

I had constant crashing within a few minutes of starting the game. This site said that this has something to do with the Nvidia settings or unstable overclocking. I reset my MSI settings and rolled back to the recent nvidia driver. My issue was fixed, hope this helps.
Wow, I finally connected my PC directly through HDMI to my OLED TV instead of using Gamestream just so I could test HDR implementation.
Amazing HDR, and I swear it even looks less blurry. Makes me think that this TAA implementation was more geared towards HDR rendering than SDR rendering.
Could just be placebo, but the image looked way less blurier with HDR on

Big fights in that area will bring pretty much any GPU to its knees.
This guy is playing at highest settings (without VXAO) with a custom 1080 Ti running close to 2GHz and has trouble holding 60fps...at 1080p.
Vid from chap 3
Or get the program DS4 WIndows and have the Hide Ps4 Controller box checked.
I did exactly that and it isn't working. Only the d-pad is working regardless of what I'm using to spoof the controller
Mine works perfectly with Steam Controller Support enabled.
Steam controller support is super wonky for me, it never worked on my end even for video games supporting it natively
