Song of Horror – How to Boost FPS / Game Stability

Hate how some areas seem to completely demolish FPS? Here’s how to fix that.

FPS Increase

Please note: all credit goes to CrashPunk 1997!

  • Head to the game’s location in your steam library.
  • Right click the game and open “properties”.
  • Navigate to “Launch options”.
  • Paste the following arguments into the box:

-useallavailablecores -d3d12 -high

This will do the following:

  • -useallavailablecores (force the game to use all the cores of your CPU)
  • -d3d12 (render the game in D3D12 (DX12) instead of D3D11 (DX11))
  • -high (set the priority of the process to “High”, this will allow the game to use more resources than normal)

Note:

The game might take slightly longer to start / properly load in assets with these fixes due to using DX12. However, in my experience this is very minimal and definitely worth the FPS boost.

  1. Bless you. I tried everything and the game still ran terribly, no matter the settings. Either using all the cores or using DX12 solved my problem. Thank you so much!
