Clear Sky optimization S.T.A.L.K.E.R 07/08/15 (Wed) 18:52:18 No.800

Q: Why does STALKER Clear Sky run like shit and how can I make it not run like shit? Does anyone have it narrowed down? What features really destroy my frames?

My specs:

EVGA GTX 770 2GB 256-bit GDDR5

Intel Core i5-3350P Ivy Bridge Quad-Core 3.1GHz

16GB of 1600 DDR3 ram

Have you tried downloading the fixes for Clear Sky? The vanilla game runs like dogshit on everything.

Do you mean like the latest patches? If so yes. If it's a community thing, no.

X-ray engine, strelok.

Even with SOC 1.04 and newer releases, multicore is godawful shit and 95% of the game runs entirely on one core.

Sun ray shaders being unoptimized doesn't help, nor do the times of day shadows for objects are really long (despite draw distance for quality shadows being Xbox-tier short).

>P class processor

So you can't even OC it for performance and are slower at stock clocks than better chips in that generation.
