If there is no “Engine.ini” located in the folder, just create one!
-Go to: Steam: “C:\Users\%username%\AppData\Local\Stalker2\Saved\Config\Windows”
Xbox GamePass: “C:\Users\%username%\AppData\Local\Stalker2\Saved\Config\WinGDK”
-Find “Engine.ini” and open it in Notepad.
-Add these settings:
[AUDIO]
bEnableBinauralRendering=True
bEnableHRTF=True
[/Script/Engine.AudioSettings]
au.EnableBinauralAudioForAllSpatialSounds=1
bAllowCenterChannel3DPanning=True
au.SpatializationMethod=2
au.EnableSoundOcclusion=1
[/Script/AkAudio.AkSettings]
bEnableMultiCoreRendering=True
(au.EnableSoundOcclusion= can be set to 0 for better performance, but you will lose the occlusion effect. Basically makes it so sounds that are behind a wall wont be muffled)
The following can draw some performance from your CPU, you do not need them but if you want the best here you go!
-Go to: Steam: “C:\Users\%username%\AppData\Local\Stalker2\Saved\Config\Windows”
Xbox GamePass: “C:\Users\%username%\AppData\Local\Stalker2\Saved\Config\WinGDK”
-Find “GameUserSettings.ini” and open it in Notepad.
-Change these 2 settings:
AudioQualityLevel=3
LastConfirmedAudioQualityLevel=3
| 0 = Vanilla, 1 = Medium, 2 = High, 3 = Eargasm |
(Change both to the same number, 1 is a good place if you want some performance back but still better audio quality).
For my personal setup I found that since I’m mostly GPU bound in this game, I didn’t get any performance hit.
Only when I changed the audio quality setting I saw some performance dips.
