what are your ingame settings? MSAA, Shadow and Resolution? Do you get 60 fps?

I downloaded NVIDIA Inspector but it looks nothing like the screenshot there. I don't have any way to change game settings. Where is it?

Nevermind, it's that button next to the driver version.

Just tried this out, instead of using Nvidia inspector, I just went directly into the Nvidia control panel, added FF13 to the list of programs and modified all the ambient stuff to much higher. Works with GEDSATO

THANKS!

Heyyo,

@LiamNiesen: this guide is handy and I'll have to try it for kicks to see if AA and AO work good for me... but another thing of note? Many users report with a single NVIDIA GPU? Setting the power management to "Prefer Maximum Performance" seems to improve framerate in combat allowing it to go above 30fps at times... dual GPU doesn't seem to matter too much though, I think the HUD in SLI freaks out and caps it at 30fps between the two cards.

Another pointer? Since there's no way to prevent the framerate cap of 60fps max? Enabling VSYNC with Triple Buffering seems to help with framerate stability.

@SirDoom: Check this and try this stuff...

Most people say for that issue? Disable AntiAliasing and Ambient Occlusion. This game does run on Crystal Tools engine which FFXIV uses but it's still modified so it's not 100% compatible to the FF XIV Realm Reborn profile. As a prime example? Dragon Quest X uses Crystal Tools as well... using that SLI profile? the 2D HUD starts to stutter like mad... our only bet right now for framerate fixes? Square Enix to patch it... or someone makes a mod that prevents the HUD from affecting framerate caps.

Check out my Imgur photo album of my tests with the HUD on and off in combat with and without NVIDIA SLI.

Heyyo,

@Rarity: Use RadeonPro. It's the same type of tool, but for AMD Radeon GPUs.

@floydcat298: Please stop bashing on other competitor products because you're a fanboy of the other company. It's just childish. If I could report your comment? I would for deletion. Why don't you do something productive and make a guide for AMD users with RadeonPro instead of comment on this NVIDIA guide?

This guide is for fps too?

Not sure how to do this all I get is this when I open it

Hi guyz, finally, theres a new update from Gedosato to ameliorate graphics. Look for GeDoSato on the net or http://blog.metaclassofnil.com/?tag=gedosato . Its pretty easy to tweak. If peop need help let me know. Now i run it in 1920X1080 without lag. Graphics looks amazing with this tweak, A big thanks to De Liam Neeson Punching Wolves for this guide and Durante for GeDosaTo tweak !!

Nonetheless, XIV is far more appropriate.

Especially if you happen to be playing XIV ARR too, as changing the profile to fit XIII will interfere with XIV ARR and vice-versa.

Whilst XIV 1.0 profile is just laying there, unused. And it seems to be more appropriate to XIII due to the shared engine.

It has different SLI compatibility bits than ARR and other settings (check down at the bottom).
