I had a brain wave last night to try 1440p graphics instead of 4k after some low frame rates on TSW2 yesterday.
1440p looks awful. Blurry, poor textures don't equate to huge increases in frame rates.
I have confirmed my graphics settings as below as being the most appropriate and efficient for Train Simulator and Train Simulator World in 4k
- Graphics Settings
- Master detail - custom
- Resolution - 3840x2160
- Full screen - borderless
- Dynamic lighting - ticked
- Dynamic clouds - ticked
- Contrast slider - middle
- Brightness slider - 75%
- Ambient light slider - 80%
- Sunlight intensity slider - 50%
- Advanced
- Anti-Aliasing - FXAA +2 x 1SSAA
- Texture filtering Anisotropic x 4
- Scenery slider - 100%
- Scenery density slider - 100%
- View distance slider - 100%
- Field of view slider - 100%
- Shadow quality slider - 100%
- Water Qulatiy slider 100%
- Procedural Flora - ticked
- Adaptive bloom - ticked
- Headlight flares - ticked
- Camera Motion blue - not ticked
- Ambient Occlusion - off
- Depth of field - not ticked
- Camera depth of field - Disabled
- Screen Resolution greyed out (3840x2160)
- Windows Mode = Windowed FullScreen 6 * Graphics
- Preset = High
- AntiAliasing = TAA
- VSync = On 9 * Screen Percentage 100%
Defaults that come with high graphics preset:
- Foliage Quality = High
- Shadow Quality = Medium
- Effects Quality = Medium
- Post Process Quality = High
- View Distance Quality = High
- Texture Quality = High
- Max FPS 60
- Motion Bluf = on (or off - doesn't affect frame rate much at all) i
