Oh sweet thanks for the ultracapture tip, although if I'm honest not sure I saw much of a change from ultra to ultracapture on this random planet I visited, nor did I see much of a noticeable fps difference. I thought at first maybe it was just a restart thing so I tried that and alas, maybe I got old eyes. Either way I'll stay on ultracapture for now, heres a few photos I took

I'm not very good at this space photography thing, I give up too quick with trying to catch the direction of the light, oh well

Well I spent a bit playing with the "UltraforCapture" setting but tbh while there IS a difference, it's not big enough for the few fps I lost with it set (even with the obvious last 2). I'll stick to Ultra.

Which one is ULTRA and which is ULTRAFORCAPTURE is in the spoiler at the bottom.

Interesting work (y) Someone (;)) should do that with every setting and also compare fps. It's really hard to decipher the meaning of some of the LOD settings, and even harder to figure out how it impacts fps.

I guessed all of them, but it's not a significant difference. Did you notice how much your fps dropped (from to)?

Not significantly (around 156fps to 140-146fps on my current planet which is quite flat) but I do wonder what will happen with framerates with settlements.
EDIT: In a mountainous area on UCF I got 95-103fps, on Ultra 122-127fps.

An interesting thing was my GPU usage went up from a steady 88% to 98% and its sticking pretty solidly to that on UFC.

EDIT: One other thing. The last time I switched to Ultra the game went into full potato mode and it looked like I was playing Goldeneye on the N64. No amount of graphics resetting, relogging, or even a full reboot of the system changed it, so I left the planet and the next one was fine.

So E and F are obviously the easiest to tell, it's very apparent in that one, the rest not so much. Thanks for the side to side

Also, did you notice more shadows bugging out in the ultracapture when you were gliding through orbit? Or just generally flying around? I feel like I was getting more shadow jitter, like sections of shadows at the edges of where they end, would blink in and out real fast. That sort of thing I felt was almost doubled in the ultracapture mode.

edit- nevermind, after realizing you do in fact need to restart to get the effects to work, i guess I was getting shadows bugging out under ultra when I thought it was ultracapture.
