Again, this will only work for the offline playthrough so the first order of business is to ensure you are in offline mode.

  • Navigate to your C Drive and find the “Users” folder.
  • Open the “Users” folder, and find the folder with your username.
  • Inside your user folder, look for the Appdata folder. (If you cannot see the folder, try viewing hidden items).
  • Once inside the Appdata folder, open up the local folder.
  • Find the folder named APK and open it.
  • Once inside, open the ‘Saved’ folder, followed by the ‘Config’ folder, and then the ‘WindowsNoEditor’ folder.
  • Inside the WindowsNoEditor, you will find yourself faced with various .ini files.
  • Find the engine.ini, and open it using notepad.
  • Navigate to the bottom of the file and paste,

bUseFixedFrameRate=False
bSmoothFrameRate=True
MinDesiredFrameRate=60.000000
SmoothedFrameRateRange=(LowerBound=(Type=Inclusive,Value=30.000000),UpperBound=(Type=Exclusive,Value=60.000000))

  • Changing the values of ‘MinDesiredFrameRate‘ and the ‘UpperBound=(Type=Exclusive,Value=60.000000))‘ will change your in-game FPS . For example, if you want 100 FPS, change the MinDesiredFrameRate=60.000000’ to ‘MinDesiredFrameRate=100.000000’ and ‘(Type=Exclusive,Value=60.000000))’ to ‘(Type=Exclusive,Value=100.000000))”.
