Monster Hunter: Wildlands Optimizer: Boosts framerate, reduces CPU usage, cleans optimizations, improves visuals, and enhances stability
Monster Hunter Wilds - Performance-boosting configurations. This is a simple tweak profile for Monster Hunter Wilds that will work on any GPU and improve performance by 10+ fps depending on your hardware. It also reduces CPU usage by 10-15%, making gaming smoother.
This tweak does not change the visuals significantly, but disables some unnecessary effects to improve performance:
Minor post-processing effects (fog, volumetric effects, lens distortion, film grain, etc.) have been removed.
Optimize CPU load by adjusting thread limits and reducing redundant calculations.
GPU settings have been adjusted to reduce background resource usage without affecting textures or primary visual effects.
Install
Download the configuration file from the Files section.
Paste this into your game's main folder:
Steam\steamapps\common\Monster Hunter Wilds\
Replace existing configuration files when prompted.
IMPORTANT: Right click on the config file, go to properties, and set it to read only to prevent the game from resetting the tweak.
Uninstall/revert changes
Just delete my config file and the game generates a new one.
Before replacing the original configuration, keep a backup in case you want to restore it later.
If you have any questions, feel free to ask in the comments!
Update v1.2 - Fixed possible crash and disabled framegen
This mod works on all GPUs,
This is not a "low settings mod". This configuration is based on the lowest preset, but you can change the graphics settings in-game (as low as Ultra) and the tweaks will still work. These optimizations are external - they adjust settings that cannot be changed from the in-game menu.
Resolution: If you want to change it from 1080p, open the profile, find the resolution setting, change it to your monitor's resolution, and save the file.
IMPORTANT: Set the config file to read-only so the game won't overwrite the adjustments. However, you can cancel the check at any time if you experience crashes or want to adjust settings frequently.
Tweaks for this mod - CPU optimization:
ParallelBuildCommandList=Enable→Enable multi-threaded rendering.
ParallelBuildProcessorCount=8→Use up to 8 threads to improve performance.
UsingIndepentRenderWorker=Enable → Separate render workers for smoother CPU usage.
RenderWorkerThreadPriorityAboveNormal=Disable→Prevents CPU overload on rendering.
CentralUpdateTileMapping=Disable→Reduce unnecessary CPU calculations.
AutoRangeCompression=true → Dynamically compress render range to save CPU cycles.
BaseAutoRangeCompression=64 → Optimizes CPU load for rendering distant objects. ????GPU optimization:
Fog_Enable=False → Remove fog effect for clearer images and better fps.
SSR_Enable=False → Disable screen space reflection to improve performance.
SSSSS_Enable=False → Turn off underground scattering (better FPS, will affect skin rendering).
ShadowCacheEnable=False → Disable shadow cache (more suitable for low VRAM GPUs).
UseLowResolutionSDF=True → Use low resolution shadow map for performance.
UseLowWaterSimulation=True→Reduce water calculation.
UseLowWindSimulation=True→Reduce wind effect calculation.
VRSSetting=Performance → Better fps with variable rate shading enabled.
TransparentBufferQuality=LOWEST→Reduces the transparency effect to improve performance. ????Frame generation disabled (you can enable it in game):
EnableFrameGeneration=False (disabled by default, but you can turn it on in settings).
FilmGrainEnable=false→disables film grain effects.
LensDistortionSetting=false→Remove lens distortion.
GodRayEnable=false→Turn off God.
LensFlareEnable=false→Disable lens flare.
EffectVolume=0→Reduce the post-processing effect calculation.
The game may look slightly different because fog and object blur are disabled,
Make the image clearer. But this does not degrade the main graphics
settings and simply eliminates unwanted effects. On high- …
Install & use Install: follow the bundled instructions
- Unzip the archive from playbuff and read the bundled readme / instructions first.
- There is no universal mod manager for this game: some mods replace game files directly, some go into a game-specific Mods folder, and some need a game-specific community loader or tool first — follow the bundled readme.
- Place the files exactly as the readme says; mods with listed dependencies need those installed too.
- Launch the game to confirm it loaded; some games require enabling mods in settings or an in-game mod menu.
Install locations vary a lot between games and mods — the bundled readme is the most reliable guide.
