Far Far West: Best Graphics Settings for High FPS (2026)

KitsuneGuide Watch on YouTube ↗

If your PC is struggling to keep up with Far Far West, you are likely dealing with frame drops during combat or high temperatures while in towns. These settings strike the right balance between clean visuals and the raw performance you need to stay competitive.

Why performance drops

Far Far West uses intensive engine features like real-time global illumination that can overwhelm even powerful GPUs. By disabling these heavy post-processing effects and balancing foliage and shadow density, you remove the primary bottlenecks causing your stuttering.

Steps

  1. 01
    Open the game settings menu, go to the graphics tab, and reset all settings to stock to ensure no lingering conflicts.
  2. 02
    Set Display Mode to Fullscreen and Render Quality to 100% for the most stable frame timing.
  3. 03
    Disable V-Sync and set FPS Limit to Unlimited to reduce input latency.
  4. 04
    Set Lumen Illumination to Off and Shadow Quality to No Shadows, as these are the biggest contributors to GPU heat and frame drops.
  5. 05
    Set Antialiasing to TAA, Texture Quality to High, and keep Details, Particle Quality, and Foliage Density at Low to prioritize CPU performance.
  6. 06
    Click Apply and restart the game to ensure all changes take effect.

Still not working?

If you are still seeing frame drops, try lowering the Render Quality to 80% or 90%. If you are using an Nvidia card, enable DLSS on 'Quality' mode, or use FSR on 'Quality' if you are using an AMD card to reclaim lost frames.

Frequently asked questions

Will turning shadows off make the game look unplayable?

It removes ground shadows, which changes the aesthetic, but the visual trade-off is worth the 20 to 30 FPS gain in intensive areas.

Should I use AMD FSR Frame Generation?

No, it is recommended to keep this off as it often introduces noticeable input lag, making the game feel less responsive during fast-paced combat.

Why does my game still stutter in towns?

Towns are often CPU-heavy due to NPC density; if lowering Foliage and Details to 'Low' does not help, the bottleneck may be your processor rather than your graphics card.
