Hi folks,

I’m looking for a current, and good, Steam Deck guide for BG3 settings. I’ve read a number of people saying they have great performance and quality and they applied settings from a guide, but I’ve failed to find such a guide. I did find some old settings from pre-launch, but no “guide” per-se.

The Diablo 4 guides were all over the place and easily found, but I am flummoxed why I can’t find them for BG3.

    I am using the “auto” settings (which ends up being medium), with models and textures bumped up to high. I also turned off the AMD FSR (makes it look blurry, to me) and am using the FidelityFX sharpening set to max. Looks pretty good and seems to perform well (I may just have low standards though).

      How far into the game are you? Performance goes down very much in Act 2 and 3.

      My settings, running the GOG version on Vulkan through Lutris:

      • 1024x640
      • Framerate capped to 30 fps
      • in-game FSR off
      • Models: Medium
      • Shadows: Low
      • Clouds: Low
      • Textures: Medium, Filtering Anisotropic x2
      • Instance Distance: Low
      • Fog: Low
      • Detail Distance: Low
      • Animation: Low
      • Anti-Aliasing: TAA
      • Ambient Occlusion: On
      • Depth of Field: Gaussian, Quarter Denoise
      • God Rays: On
      • Bloom: Off
      • Subsurface Scattering: Off
      • Slow HDD Mode: Off
      • Dynamic Crowds: Off
      • Audio - > Occlusion Quality: Low

      I get 20 to 30 fps, depending on the scene. Mostly 30.
