How To Get Better FPS! (Optimization)
By O.G Business
This guide I will teach you how to create the best optimization for Unturned. I've tried this on 3 different PC builds, My 2010 Laptop | My Gaming Rig | Spare PC from 2000s This method has worked 100% on all 3, so I assume it should work for you!

It comes in 3 forms, and they are as follows:

Detailed, (Semi Decent FPS)

Medium (Good FPS)

Performance (Amazing FPS)

I will Include images to help people understand, and Translations will be open upon request ;)

Use these if you still would like your game to look nice, but also run at a steady pace.

Once you start Unturned, Head straight to Configuration > Graphics:

Nearby Daw distance: 100%
Landmarks: Off
Bloom: Off (Optional, its not too taxing)
Chromatic Aberation: Off
Flim Grain: Off
Clouds: On
Terrain Transistion: On
Height Fog: On / Off
Grass Displacement: On / Off
Scope Focus Foliage: Off
Ragdolls: On
Debris: On
Blast Marks: On
Rain Puddles: On / Off
Snow Gliter: Off (Unless you play on Yukon)
Triplanar Mapping: Off
Skybox reflection: Off (Its useless)

In the Custom graphics, Please follow the same as the screenshot:


This will allow the game to run smoothly, but also look relatively "pretty", this is good for RP servers if you still want the feeling of "Real Life" But would also like to survive in the Cities.

Further Code:

If you wanted to really get the Best out of Unturned, you can use this line of code:

-high -threads 2 -maxmem 4096 -dxlevel 90 -force-d3d9 -cpuCount=2 -exThreads=3 -heapsize 2097152 -refresh 60 -noaafonts -lv console +fps_max 99999999 +cl_cmdrate 100 +cl_updaterate 100 -soft

Just copy and paste it into: Unturned Properties > Launch Options (Settings / Commands)
Medium (Looks - FPS)
Medium Settings

These settings were tested and made to try and get a few useful parts to work, but without such a taxing frame drop everytime you turn the corner in Berlin!

As you go down, you will notice alot less settings turned on, they become better for low Specs, But the Game really takes a dive after this one.

Once you start Unturned, Head straight to Configuration > Graphics:

Nearby Daw distance: 50%
Landmarks: Off
Bloom: Off
Chromatic Aberation: Off
Flim Grain: Off
Clouds: Off
Terrain Transistion: On
Height Fog: Off
Grass Displacement: Off
Scope Focus Foliage: Off
Ragdolls: On
Debris: On
Blast Marks: On
Rain Puddles: Off
Snow Gliter: Off (Unless you play on Yukon)
Triplanar Mapping: Off
Skybox reflection: Off (Its useless)

The customizable settings are the exact same from the prior, however feel free to Lower / Raise however you need, these do not have a terrible impact if you turn them up high.


If you wanted to really get the Best out of Unturned, you can use this line of code:

-high -threads 2 -maxmem 4096 -dxlevel 90 -force-d3d9 -cpuCount=2 -exThreads=3 -heapsize 2097152 -refresh 60 -noaafonts -lv console +fps_max 99999999 +cl_cmdrate 100 +cl_updaterate 100 -soft

Just copy and paste it into: Unturned Properties > Launch Options (Settings / Commands)
Low Spec (Laptop)
Laptop (Lowest Possible)

If you run a Laptop or just a really low spec PC, these are the best options, they offer Maximum FPS, and will help you play at a more stable rate.

Once you start Unturned, Head straight to Configuration > Graphics:

Nearby Daw distance: 25%
Landmarks: Off
Bloom: Off
Chromatic Aberation: Off
Flim Grain: Off
Clouds: Off
Terrain Transistion: Off
Height Fog: Off
Grass Displacement: Off
Scope Focus Foliage: Off
Ragdolls: Off
Debris: Off
Blast Marks: Off
Rain Puddles: Off
Snow Gliter: Off (Even If You Play Yukon)
Triplanar Mapping: Off
Skybox reflection: Off (Its useless)

This is how the custom setting should look like:


Remember you arrunning the lowest possible specs, this will look TERRIBLE!

To make your Unturned run at its best possible outcome, you NEED to use this following code, it will help Blend everything we've done above, and make the game run smooth:

-high -threads 2 -maxmem 4096 -dxlevel 90 -force-d3d9 -cpuCount=2 -exThreads=3 -heapsize 2097152 -refresh 60 -noaafonts -lv console +fps_max 99999999 +cl_cmdrate 100 +cl_updaterate 100 -soft

Just copy and paste it into: Unturned Properties > Launch Options (Settings / Commands)
Thanks!
Finished?

Now that you've tweaked the settings go play Unturned, make sure to go into Singleplayer, so you can go to the worse FPS related parts of the map to ensure everything can run, and remember if it has not fully worked, you CAN ADD ME! I will give you needed Information.

Are you dumb or smth, this commands doesnt do anything, they related to the Source engine "-high -threads 2 -maxmem 4096 -dxlevel 90 -force-d3d9 -cpuCount=2 -exThreads=3 -heapsize 2097152 -refresh 60 -noaafonts -lv console +fps_max 99999999 +cl_cmdrate 100 +cl_updaterate 100 -soft"
