Lords of the Fallen UE5 Stuttering FIX

Welcome to our Lords of the Fallen UE5 Stuttering FIX guide. This guide will show you potential fixes for UE5 Stuttering and low fps in Lords of the Fallen!

Engine INI Tweaks

Engine.ini Tweaks

1 – Go to your file explorer and paste the following:
C:Users%username%AppDataLocalLOTF2SavedConfigWindows

2 – Open Engine.ini

3 – Copy the commands from one of the links below then paste them at the bottom of the Engine.ini file then save (Some games will automatically remove the commands. If this happens right click > Properties > General > Read-only)

UE4/5 Stutter Fix | High Quality Graphics

UE4/5 Stutter Fix | Low Quality Graphics

Please note that this isnt a guaranteed fix, but has worked for me in the past with other UE4/5 Games so this may or may not work

All credit for these tweaks belongs to r/OptimizedGaming in the Reddit post:

Here are some additional commands to include. I excluded them because some games crashed when they were enabled but they do help

General Tweaks

1 – Select DX12/Vulkan > DX11 ingame if it is a supported rendering API (In that order, from best to worse. Most of the time anyway)

2 – Disable overlays (GeForce Experience, Steam, etc) not every game will suffer from stuttering with overlays but a lot of big popular games still do as it messes with GPU utilization

Steam Tweaks
If your game is on Steam right click it, click on properties then in the “Launch Options” field paste the following

Low VRAM

-xgeshadercompile -nothreadtimeout

8GB+ VRAM

-xgeshadercompile -nothreadtimeout -NoVerifyGC

DX11 Game (Forcing DX12)

-force -dx12

DX11 Game (Staying in DX11 / Forcing DX12 doesn’t work)
