Wow, I am running Hawken with 70 - 80 fps on my laptop. (Former fps between 30-50 fps on lowest settings). Only tried the Doom settings so far. It looks AWESOME!!! So easy to set this up, because of Nepa's amazing effort he put into this. Thanks Nepa, thanks, thanks :D

EDIT: It ran well for 5 minutes than it crashed. Crash dialogue saying this:

[nepacaka]

These two commands in manual which working with your memory should be equally or less than your RAM.
1) try change primitives and shadows to 128/128 (or virce versa, increase it)

2) some cache of videocard also enabled, I tell more when I go home.

3) doom have a very high detalization
DetaiMode=2 change to =0
MaxDrawDistance=3 change it to 2.5 or 2 ( some ugly pooping textures appear on prosk, but...)

I tell you doom-config not created for optimization :) it required good PC

[nepacaka]

Mostly to get max fps and less drop, config should be edited and tested on your pc, because some command can working bad.
For example on 8gb PC disable cache is can be good, but on 2gb it can only decrease your FPS and cause crashes. I trying make it for everyone, cuz I make version which should working good on high PC with good amount or RAM, and on my PC which have only 2Gb RAM.

Karl, you use 64bit win7? Also, tell me about you pc configuration (videocard memory/cache, RAM, gpu)

Edited by nepacaka, 29 November 2015 - 01:51 AM.

[KarlSchlag]

I will give you my specs soon. Thnx again. I cant play Plastic. I get quite disorientated. Soft is awesome so far. But Doom looks like my game of dreams. I LOVE the SublevelZero-Doom-Pixel Art style. If that would run on my old laptop... man, I could play Hawken wherever I want :D 

[nepacaka]

Send me in private if you want, I try help. It is maybe based on your personal PC spec. So, maybe I can help if I have more information.

[maxajcd]

Is there a significant change between the soft and plastic versions of the config?

[KarlSchlag]

My first game without crash in Hawken DOOM settings:D The DOOM seems to work so far. 80-90 frames per second and 95 field of view in battle on Bazaar to former 30-40 fps on standard low settings with FOV of 80. And it looks GEORGEOUS!!! I highly recommend trying these settings.

THANK YOU NEPA :D

they based on the same HawkenEngine and LightMass, just use different textures blocks.

also, plastic version save you from game crashes (obviously, if you have game crash on some maps, mostly it is wreckage and lostEco, if you have bad videocard and RAM

made a crash test on lostEco in siege mode or MA (not tdm). it is worse maps which can cause crash. all other map working good without problem on my expirience.

but i think in config version which i gave you it should working fine.

Edited by nepacaka, 30 November 2015 - 09:54 AM.

[maxajcd]

tried plastic config again, the terrain on last eco is like gigantic steps, but i'm still getting a consistent 25 frames on the map, ill try soft config next, My computer is below the minimum requirements listed on steam.

[nepacaka]

i trying to see what happened with LE and fix it... :D

 

My computer is below the minimum requirements listed on steam.

 

i think it is general problem, probably, even if you disable all you still may have only 20-30 fps.

i think so too but at least i can get close to a consistent ~28 fps, its more for fun really, i have other computers that could run it faster, i just thought it would be fun to try to get it to run on a macbook :P

[nepacaka]

fixed error with landscape on Baazar and LostEco, caused by wrong "MaxLODsize" values.
pls reinstall your conf. now it working like it should be.

Gamma in plastic config also was increase to 3.4 to facilitate the perception of objects and map landscape

I would like to add something to this awesome thread, there is option for positive LOD in dirvers too, I use +1.125 which helps things further, I will share my nvidia inspector hawken profile.

when is this getting stickied?

[nepacaka]

Updated.
by several ppl request, doom-config was remastered to increase FPS quality.

- game detalization now decreased to 1 (before it was 2).
- max drawing distance now decreased to 1 (before it was 3, almost all map loading, even place which you not see by landscape)
- "smoke trails" time decreased to default values (before it was specially increased).

known visual problems. Central building on Prosk have a "texture glitch", when you stand far (higher than MaxDistanceDrawing) central building turn into grey. it is actually no big deal to get good FPS on doom-config. and it is probably only one map which have this problem.
If you have good PC, you can solve this if change max Distance Drawing to 2.5 or 3 (3 = max, but this can highly decrease fps on big maps like fronline, wreckage, lostEco).

Small edit but might be good to have when using custom binds.

 

Navigate to 

C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Hawken\HawkenGame\Localization\INT

and open HawkenGame.INT with notepad.

 

If you made autocharge example with taunt, find 

CommandList[26]=(displayName="MECH EMOTE")

and replace it with

CommandList[26]=(displayName="REVERSED FIRE")

or whatever you want as text.

 

 

Goddamn forums wont let me to add picture directly. Just giving me error or wont load it.

ur CPU isn't so Stronk to handle Hawken also IGPU 

[Makano45]

Update:
  Along with using the soft configs I also upgraded my ram to 8GB and it vastly improved my fps. 
detailMode=0 I get over 60fps avg sometimes I get in the 70s :O .
detailMode=1 I get 50 avg with slight dips in the high 40s, this is the setting I use and with streaming I get 30 fps whiich is not bad at all. 
have not tryed detailMode= 2.

 

Some one posted this tread link on one of my youtube videos. So I was like "why not!" and so far I'm impressed got Hawken to run over 30fps can't wait to see how recording goes with it. Thank you good sir! My rock of a pc is now a potato. lol

i3-3120m

Edited by Makano45, 15 February 2016 - 08:58 PM.

[nepacaka]

Makano45, SecretSociety, 
check "detailMode=1" in "HawkenSystemSettings.ini"
and change it to "detailMode=0" (if it not), it can increase fps by 5-10 on a big maps like frontline, eco, etc.


well... wait until someone not trying run hawken with config on tablet... xD

is possible to change resolution to 800x600? 

[Makano45]

I don't think so the game has a minimal resolution in which it was created. But if anything you can lower the reso in the game itself and use this config for the game for best performance. Right now in a update new I got it to run almost 60fps no problem in details=1 instead of 0. Highly recommend to get 8gb of ram as this game is more ram intensive.

[rochr4]

You can downscale further below gui resolution, exact variable was mentioned earlier in this thread.

[VacuumTube]

is possible to change resolution to 800x600? 

yes its possible, just type it in config, but some UI elements will be off screen, and in my case it didn't give and fps boost

[Ranna]

I can't find any of the files in my HawkenGame/Config folder, it's all DefaultLightmass.ini, etc. should I go ahead and rename them?

[Makano45]

Yes rename them and the game will pick it up for you. Save the originals incase u want to go back.

[SecretSociety]

Can u explain exactly where i type this?

[dxdy]

Jeez, can't you spend like a grand to play this game properly? Second, using this should be considered cheating, as you see less crap than developer intended. Just mine two cents.

[Makano45]

Jeez, can't you spend like a grand to play this game properly? Second, using this should be considered cheating, as you see less crap than developer intended. Just mine two cents.

Well it's the simple fact that not every has $1000 to drop on a pc. Also have you ever heard of sticky walls in the game. This config allows you to see the things that are hindering you from moving. Plus its also the hidden pipes that can block your shots from hitting people.

[Hyginos]

Jeez, can't you spend like a grand to play this game properly? Second, using this should be considered cheating, as you see less crap than developer intended. Just mine two cents.

 

Even with sub-low configs I have trouble keeping this game at 144hz on some maps with a 980ti. With optimization like that, can you really blame people?

[dxdy]

Yes. It's a mod affecting gameplay, and mods affecting gamplay in multiplayer are a no-no.
Just bite the bullet and play at 100 fps.

[AboveTheSky]

I am using the soft cfg ,but the texture are way to low i cant even see the paintjob on the mecs 

 

Can someone tell me wich settings i need to change for that?

[crockrocket]

Yes. It's a mod affecting gameplay, and mods affecting gamplay in multiplayer are a no-no.
Just bite the bullet and play at 100 fps.

 

For many of the people using this I'm sure it's not a "bite the bullet and play at 100 fps", it's more like "use this so I can even pull 30-40 fps".
