Ultimate Engine Tweaks

Overview:

After months of Unreal Engine testing, this mod provides the definitive custom "Engine.ini" changes for Stellar Blade. The goal is to include as many optimizations as possible for CPU/GPU/RAM/SSD to remove most stuttering, improve performance, reduce input latency and improve picture clarity.

These optimizations remove Film Grain & Chromatic Aberration, optimize DLSS/FSR Upscaling and Anti-Aliasing, reduce ghosting and shimmering - all without any visual loss or introducing glitches.

Important: Do not use together with other "optimization" mods. Any other mod types will be compatible.

Key Optimizations:

Anti-Stutter Technology: Advanced frame pacing and texture streaming optimizations
Performance Boost: CPU, GPU, RAM and SSD optimizations for higher FPS
Lower Input Latency: Reduced input lag for more responsive controls
Enhanced Clarity: Film grain & chromatic aberration removal, optimized AA
DLSS/FSR Optimization: Better upscaling quality and ghosting reduction
Lossless Quality: All improvements without visual degradation
VRR Support: Separate optimizations for VRR/G-Sync/FreeSync enabled and disabled displays

Installation Instructions:

Step 1: Choose and download the correct version

Important: Choose the correct version based on your monitor setup:

• VRR Version: If your monitor has VRR/G-Sync/FreeSync enabled
• No VRR Version: If your monitor has VRR/G-Sync/FreeSync disabled or not supported

Download the appropriate Engine.ini file from the download section below.

Step 2: Navigate to game config folder

%localappdata%\SB\Saved\Config\WindowsNoEditor

Press Win + R, paste the path above and click Enter

Step 3: Replace/Paste the file

Copy the downloaded Engine.ini file to the folder (replace existing if present).

Step 4: Set as Read-Only

Right-click on Engine.ini → Properties → check "Read-Only" → Apply/OK

To Uninstall:

Simply delete the Engine.ini file from the config folder.

Compatibility & Requirements:

Compatible

• All gameplay mods
• Character mods
• Audio mods
• UI mods
• Most other mod types

Incompatible

• Other Engine.ini tweaks
• Other optimization mods
• Performance mods
• Graphics tweaks affecting Engine.ini

Player Experience:

Performance Impact: Players typically experience 10-20% FPS improvement, with significantly reduced stuttering during texture streaming and area transitions. Input latency feels noticeably more responsive, especially during fast-paced combat sequences.

Visual Quality: The removal of film grain and chromatic aberration provides a cleaner, sharper image without compromising the game's artistic vision. DLSS/FSR users will notice reduced ghosting and improved upscaling quality.

System Requirements: This mod is beneficial for all system configurations, from budget setups to high-end gaming rigs. Lower-end systems will see the most dramatic improvements in stuttering reduction.
