Well, some of us do play on a laptop or low-end desktop pc. And you know, common problems... FPS blablablablablablbalbal. So here is what I did to make my gaming experience a lot better on low-end pc. ( well I'm on mid-end tho )

1. run Rust with this launch option

-force-feature-level-9-3 -high -force-driver-type-warp

* note that you may remove the warp if your pc cant support it. you can also put "-nolog" but meh, no log means no support if you got crashed a lot. log is important.


2. slide the render thingy in Rust all the way to the left


3. go to \Steam\SteamApps\common\rust\cfg and edit the client.cfg file ( below ). So, each time you run Rust, you dont have to press F1 and type again and again and again.

grass.on Falsegrass.forceredraw False
grass.displacement False
grass.shadowcast False
grass.shadowreceive False

gfx.ssaa False
gfx.bloom False
gfx.ssao False

censor.nudity False

*bonus auto nude

Ok that's it. FPS still low? it's time to get a new computer.

p.s: idk if someone else already post this or not. just sharing.

it is really nice now i play with 60-80 fps. Before that 20fps
I cant find a client.cfg or a cfg folder in rust

can you confirm that censor.nudity False works there?

it's totally working. no more F1 to have fun with gyrocopter.

I assume this particular launch command set still causes a funky sky?

funky sky or epic sky, both doesnt cause radiation.

-force-feature-level-9-3

From MSDN: "A feature level does not imply performance, only functionality". This is used so you can run Directx 11 mode with older hardware, it has no other effects.

-force-driver-type-warp

This should also have no effect or actually make the game run significantly slower. WARP is a software driver used as a reference, so your GPU will be much less utilized or not utilized at all.

-force-gfx-direct

Try this instead. It should give a nice boost if you have a single or dual core CPU (can work on quad cores too).

I think -force-gfx-direct has been crashing my game since the last patch
