![]() This was surprising and made me even more confused. You can see that this time the average FPS, 1% low FPS, and 0.1% low FPS are almost the same. Here are the results when the tests were run using Epic settings: I knew that using higher settings would reduce my FPS, and I thought it would have a greater impact on the Calamity skin because of the animations. So I tested the default skin against the Calamity skin combination again. I was interested to find out what would happen to my FPS when using higher settings. But simple skins (like the default skin) can give you better FPS. So skins with a lot of visuals could lower your FPS because there are more animations to render. ![]() The theory is that the FPS loss with certain skins may have something to do with the way animations are rendered with Unreal Engine’s Chaos Physics System. These results honestly shocked me and I couldn’t believe them.īut I had the same results each time. Using the Calamity skin combination made my average FPS drop by more than 140 in comparison to the default skin.Īlso, the 1% low and 0.1% low FPS were significantly less. You can see that the default skin does get the highest average FPS.Īnd the Calamity skin combination had by far the lowest FPS. Stage 5 Calamity with Frozen Shroud back bling and Fusion Scythe pickaxe – this is a skin with animation effects and a bulky cape and a pickaxe with animations as another test for the lower FPS theory.Ice King with Fusion Orb back bling and Guiding Glow pickaxe – this is a fairly big and detailed skin with an animated back bling and pickaxe to test the lower FPS theory.Snorkel Ops with the Deep Dive back bling and Tide Axes pickaxe – this is my main skin combination and I wanted to find out if using it was making my FPS lower.The default skin with no back bling and the default pickaxe – this is a barebones combination that would apparently give me the best FPS.The following skins were used for the tests: Each test was recorded 3 times to increase the reliability of the data. I used FRAPS for taking the benchmarks so I could see the average FPS, 1% low FPS, and 0.1% low FPS. So I did some tests in an empty Creative map using low settings and unlimited FPS. If this is true, then it would mean that skins do grant a competitive advantage because we know higher FPS makes you better at Fortnite. In fact, default skin is the most fps optimized skin in Season 3.A popular FPS booster said on Twitter that the default skin has the best edit delay and FPS.Īnd that certain skins and back bling could lower your FPS. Using minimal skins that don’t use many pixels (most male skins, warrior skins, etc.) will offer you a significant advantage Less friends & invites you have in the Epic Games overlay will directly improve your FPS by as much as 20% in some extreme casesįinally, the skin you wear has a great impact on your frames and input delay. First off, you’re going to want to reject all pending Epic Games friend requests and remove all current friends if possible. Two more notes before we sign out revolves around minimizing clutter. Previously, optimized colorblind settings offered this advantage but this is a fair, fps friendly compromise Other optimizations *We set post processing to medium to give you an advantage to look into zone with more clarity. Here’s an easy way to deal with the entire graphics quality section: The less additional color rendering, the better Graphics Quality Previous FPS boost videos had you mess with brightness and contrast, but after stress tests we concluded that not messing with the settings leads to the most optimized resultsĭespite pro players touting their favorite colorblind settings, new research shows that setting the default colorblind setting to zero is going to be a handy way to save frames. Graphics is quite intuitive in all honesty. Never set max FPS to unlimited for this exact reason Graphics Don’t set your max FPS to more than your monitor’s refresh rate to keep consistent frames which will lead to less noticeable drops. Your capped FPS will depend on the refresh rate (hz) if your monitor. Ensure that you are using a 16:9 (1920x1080p) monitor in fullscreen mode While the display settings are fairly straight forward - messing up any of these will lead to the most input delay and FPS stutters.
