When I launch Rust with -force-feature-level-9-3 , -force-feature-level-9-2 or -force-feature-level-9-1, the game just crash. So do I do it the wrong way or is anyone else having the same problem? PS the game doesn`t start at all, just crashes instantly when I launh it

[QUOTE=Bryan206;42719323]When i put in: -force-feature-level-9-1 -force-feature-level-9-2 => -force-feature-level-9-3 It crashes almost right after i click play. The other ones work but don't help.[/QUOTE] You added the arrow from #2, that is what is screwing with it I think. And also, I think you can only use one at a time. So just put in one set of parameters.

After you added the -force-feature-level-9-x, just add this one too -popupwindow It must look something like this: -force-feature-level-9-3 -popupwindow -nolog If it's still crashing maybe it doesn't work on win8 or with your PC specs. Tried to find a solution, but I think this requires a fix from Gary, if he's willing to help us with this... The game was never intended to be used in direct3d9 and old shaders. At this point I'll stop looking for solutions because I couldn't find anything that could point me in the right direction, no console commands, only vars that need to be put in the code itself, i can't do that Also, if you wan't to get rid of upside down view, here's a fix console in game (F1) actor.cam -1 This can also be exploited by putting in a higher number like 200-300.. you'll be able to see the whole map with it ... Just mess around with it, for me "-1" seems the best since it's almost first person, occasional glitches do occur, but it's mostly like playing a shooter with your weapon hidden :/

I used -force-feature-level-9-3 and my FPS is through the roof now. Thanks so much for posting this! :rock:

What if there is a way to change the skybox to something else to keep it from glitching?

[QUOTE=zenthekiller;42734563]What if there is a way to change the skybox to something else to keep it from glitching?[/QUOTE] Put AA on 2x If it flips your weapon you're fucked.

Becomes easy to play with a flipped weapon after a while.

It flips my weapon, I find that it's okay for resource gathering but when I'm using a gun I like to turn off AA so that it's unflipped again. Hope they fix this.

looks like we got some driver hackers in here, mods, ban??????

It's not hacking, it's a tool implemented by Steam that allows you to work around incompatibility with the game's default graphics and video settings. [URL="https://support.steampowered.com/kb_article.php?ref=1040-JWMT-2947"]https://support.steampowered.com/kb_article.php?ref=1040-JWMT-2947[/URL]

[QUOTE=notwuat;42737712]looks like we got some driver hackers in here, mods, ban??????[/QUOTE] I need this otherwise I get 20 fps

Hey is there anything i can try to increase fps on my Mac !? :3

so when i input the commands into steams launch option it should look like this "-force-openg l-force-feature-level-9-3 -nolog" ?? EDIT. What im saying is how would you exactly enter multiple inputs? with spacing, without, or however. I'm looking but im not really familiar with this. It does say for Advanced users maybe i shoulda listened :P EDIT.#2 NEvermind im stupid :D I found teddysmiths post like 5 posts up lol

Yes.

One more question. When i input "-force-d3d11 -force-feature-level-9-3 -popupwindow -nolog" The force feature doesn't seem to work Is there a compatibility issue with those commands?

Updated the op with more info, hope it helps the new guys that are just browsing for a temporary fix. they won't have to scroll through all the thread :D About that troll statement that people using this are hackers... People have been having problems playing the game since the last major update(the rock update). Just changing the rock textures a bit won't really affect gameplay that much, because that's what this mainly does. The most noticeable things are the removal of some extra effects coming previously from dynamic lightning techniques. The -actor.cam command is on the other hand an obvious advantage to someone that knows how and when to use it. I think it will be fixed at some point, thought I doubt that in PvP any of you will waste their time opening up the console and inputting this just to see where the enemy is hiding in the rocks. the clear advantage that this command would offer is that it will be easy to find hidden settlements, faster... about this: [QUOTE=Hood.jeff12;42740602]One more question.

[QUOTE=teddysmith;42711385]Right click rust in steam, go to properties -> set launch option and type in any of the following HUGE FPS INCREASE! [B]-force-feature-level-9-1 -force-feature-level-9-2 => All those commands will make rocks look really shitty, but that's exactly what you need, less detail, perhaps less polygons. If you can't handle MINECRAFT grafics don't try it!!! -force-feature-level-9-3 UPDATE: Remove the glitchy sky just by setting AA to 2x. This can be done from the game options. UPDATE #2: For most of us the weapon/hands are turned upside down, coming from the top of the screen after using AA. Searching for a fix... UPDATE #3: Use [URL="http://www.mediafire.com/download/jnsslpz2wl7yjf8/RemoveBorders.rar"]a borderless utility[/URL] to make your game full screen. Some people have problems running the game in full screen using the params. UPDATE #4: Temporary fix for the upside down weapon would be be to go to console(F1) and type in [U]actor.cam -1[/U] This will make your weapon hidden, or only barely visible depending upon various factors. You can also try suiciding after you do this suicide and it should Example command(the one added as launch parameter in steam, before starting the game): [CODE]-force-feature-level-9-3 -popupwindow -nolog[/CODE] the [U]-popupwindow[/U] command will make the game run borderless from the start. Use this with window mode if you can't run the game in full screen. It will be the same, just run your native desktop resolution and you will have a full screen borderless window :wink: the [U]-nolog[/U] command will disable the log that unity creates whenever you start the game. It might not make much of a difference in performance though, if any at all. [IMG]http://www.setwalls.ru/min/201305/32827.jpg[/IMG] [/B] Minimal performance improvement -force-feature-level-10-0 -force-feature-level-10-1 . -force-feature-level-11-0 Problem.. because it uses a very old pixel/vertex shader with the the skybox, the light from the sun won't be cast and it will get messy. As far as it concerns me, if we fix the sky glitch, i don't care about the stupid rocks, game will work 200% better. Found this useful, donate to my paypal /sarcasm[/QUOTE] Please fix the upside down thing and i will try to donate once i get money in my paypal account :/ Don't worry i will get something and hopefully that upside down problem get fixed :)

Getting really much fps but the downside is the sky is glitchy as hell, atleast it's better then 40fps. so playing this way till there is a fix

Tried this. It would work well if the sky was glitched and/or your hands weren't upside when putting on AA.

great fps but yeah , the sky glitch

If you can still make a holo sight weapon and use the dot the same way (just upside down) then I think that might be something I could live with. If not, I don't think i'll be utilizing this technique (or at least not all of it) to improve FPS. Thanks for the help though.

Any news anyone?

I just can't wait until there's a fix to the upside down gun (besides actor.cam -1) it would be perfect because I have almost 0 lag.

[QUOTE=Laurence;42750576]I just can't wait until there's a fix to the upside down gun (besides actor.cam -1) it would be perfect because I have almost 0 lag.[/QUOTE] I ran into an interesting problem trying this last night. The fraps FPS overlay stopped working so I couldn't even see what my FPS was. I don't really know if i'm gaining any FPS from using these techniques (1 and 2 just crash the game anyway) but they cause too many glitches so I don't think i'll be using them in the future. I got that infinite range interactable object bug too which just makes it feel like a cheat. You can scout box spawns and hidden caches from a mountain top making it feel practically like hacking.

[QUOTE=Maniacdane5013;42711626]Trying out each setting. Already did -force-feature-level-9-1 and -force-feature-level-9-2 both are creating a sky glitch with replicating textures. Remind me of when you stare into no skybox in garrys mod. I will be back later to try the other settings.
