All you have to do is find the configuration file in the game folder and change a number of values. Follow these steps:
1. Find the engine.ini file. The default address is C: \ Users \ UserName \ AppData \ Local \ Astro \ saved \ config \ windowsnoeditor \ engine.ini
2. Paste in the following code:
[Core.System]
Paths = .. / .. / .. / Engine / Content
Paths =% GAMEDIR% Content
Paths = .. / .. / .. / Engine / Plugins / 2D / Paper2D / Content
[/script/engine.renderersettings]
r.DefaultFeature.MotionBlur = False
r.LightFunctionQuality = 0
r.ShadowQuality = 0
r.Shadow.CSM.MaxCascades = 1
r.Shadow.MaxResolution = 512
r.Shadow.RadiusThreshold = 0.1
r.Shadow.DistanceScale = 0.6
r.Shadow.CSM.TransitionScale = 0
r.DistanceFieldShadowing = 0
r.DistanceFieldAO = 0
r.DepthOfFieldQuality = 0
r.RenderTargetPoolMin = 300
r.LensFlareQuality = 0
r.SceneColorFringeQuality = 0
r.EyeAdaptationQuality = 0
r.BloomQuality = 4
r.FastBlurThreshold = 0
r.Upscale.Quality = 1
r.TonemapperQuality = 0
r.LightShaftQuality = 0
r.TranslucencyLightingVolumeDim = 24
r.RefractionQuality = 0
r.SSR.Quality = 0
r.SceneColorFormat = 3
r.TranslucencyVolumeBlur = 0
r.MaterialQualityLevel = 0
r.SSS.Scale = 0
r.SSS.SampleSet = 0
r.EmitterSpawnRateScale = 0.75
Most of the players who have used this solution claim that the FPS has become from 40 to 50. However, there are also players who have not noticed any improvements. If you are one of them, try unlocking frame rate. Go to C: \ Users \ Username \ AppData \ Local \ Astro \ saved \ config \, open the GamerUserSettings file and change the FrameRateLimit value of 144 to your monitor's refresh rate or higher.
