Dishonored 2 Mods Nexus
I was browsing the nexus today when I came across a couple of mods that make the thieves guild questline a lot more like Dishonored, or just overall improved if you want to skip over the Dishonored stuff.

I know we all have been having some trouble with Dishonored 2 amazing optimization. I was getting about 60fps indoors and 40 outdoors at medium settings (which apparently is pretty good, specs below) but obviously I was expecting more.I looked around the reviews and found someone (I'll make sure to come back and credit him!) who said something that gave me a huge boost.Basically, Dishonored 2 defaults itself to Low Priority. You can see this in the task manager. Changing this setting helps. Instructions:The guy suggested simple right clicking the Dishonored process pressing go to details right clicking the process hovering over Priority selecting 'High'.This worked fantastic! I was getting a huge boost and was playing on High with 50-60 outdoors and over 60 indoors (will come back later with better benchmarks!)However, my frames kept randomly dropping back down to how they used to be. I found that the Dishonored 2 process was constantly setting itself back to 'Low' Disappointing.But!
There's a fix! Simply download a wonderful program named. Process hacker allows you to permanently set the priority of a program!
Simply search Dishonored 2 in its search bar right click Dishonored 2 set priority to High (ensure that it actually set, took me a few tries) and click 'Save Priority for Dishonored2.exe'Also!! If your AMD make sure you have the it fixes a ton of issues also! My Specs:. CPU: i5-4690k @ 4.0Ghz. GPI: MSI R9 390Awesome!
I'd done the Process Hacker priority fix and that helped a bit, but didn't know about the AMD driver hotfix. Thanks for posting this. I'll try it when I get home and report back.My specs: Intel Core i5-6500, AMD Radeon R9 390 & 16 GB of RAM. Playing on high settings with roughly 45 to 60 fps. It's not currently awful for me, but it could be more stable. Hopefully the new drivers will help.EDIT: Uninstalled my old drivers and installed the hotfix drivers (16.11.3).
Unfortunately this didn't seem to help. I'm still getting some FPS drops in certain areas. Again, it's not terrible; the lowest I generally go is 45 fps. But it's irritating.
I appreciate the response. I went back and tweaked and tested some of the changes you suggested. Turning off anti-aliasing helped a tiny, tiny bit. I still get the framerate drops, but they're shorter. I had MSI Afterburner displaying an FPS counter in game, and I noticed that my framerate drops to 45-ish are shorter. But they're still present.
It seems to happen mostly when I jump or double-jump, because that blurry border appears around my FOV. When that blur appears, that's when the framerate drops occur. Hey, that adaptive resolution tip helped a little more! I'm not dipping down to mid-to-high-40's anymore. Usually getting around 50-60 fps on medium now.
The game does lag a lot when opening the menus and journal, though, which is strange. My mouse lags in the journal and menu, too.Another bug I've found: the adaptive resolution setting doesn't persist after restarting the game. It always defaults back to 75, so I have to change it everytime I start the game.
Have you experienced this? Do you know anyone else who has?Thanks for all your help. I appreciate you taking the time to try to help me out. So in my experience, menu lag is CPU-related.
You've said you've change the CPU settings to High through a program, but I'd check to make sure that's actually happening. Make sure it's at High in Task Manager while the game is running. Furthermore, I haven't testing this out myself, but I've heard you can setRight Click Game in Steam Properties Set Launch Options.-highand it should just constantly keep it at high CPU usage.Mouse lag could be that, or could be mouse smoothing.I'm guessing you might be able to alter the adaptive resolution permanently from within the ini file.Windows User FolderSaved GamesArkane Studiosdishonored2base is where mine is. Named dishonored2Config.
Open in Notepad.Though as I write this I'm wondering if you've done the trick in there to disable mouse smoothing. In which case, you've set it to Read Only and that's why further settings updates don't save.I haven't checked, but if I can remember I'll edit this tonight and let you know if it sticks or not.Also, happy to help. I'm no expert this game's specificities, but then again none of us are at this stage in the game. Pun intended. Alright, I've tried everything. The game's priority is set to high (I use Process Hacker). I set the mouse smoothing option to 0.

While it does make the mouse more responsive (obviously), it doesn't help with the FPS drops and menu lag. Adaptive resolution still doesn't stick.
I think it's just a bug, because I don't even have a line in my Dishonored 2 config file for it.I'm still experiencing FPS drops, most notably when I open the journal or the menu. I'm on the second mission, and I get 60 fps when looking in some areas, and 45-50 fps when looking at others. Nothing has changed there. This is even on low settings. I'm convinced it's optimization at this point.
I'll wait for the patch.I still do I appreciate all your help and suggestions, though!.
