Need some tweaks for AMD setup

CrazyEyesCortez

Can someone with an AMD setup plz post your tweaked settings for UT, preferably using OpenGL?
These are specs for the laptop needing tweaked:

Ryzen5 3500U cpu
Win11 Pro
AMD Radeon Vega 8 GPU

Any help appreciated greatly!

Do you mean all the graphics related aspects to be able to effectively play or record demos? Well, unless you have a problem with a specific detail, such as brightness or frames/sec. or clarity of objects/characters...
Could you make the question more specific?

I was asking for a friend who has a new school laptop with these specs. I suggested using OpenGL and that seems to be a good fit. Ooper is probably a good person to answer this as he knows all the good tweaks.

With 469 you don't have to do much messing around, I myself just use the included OpenGL with a few tweaks to make it look nicer at longer distances.

I also set mouse axis speed to 1.0(default 6.0) and ingame mouse sensitivity to 1.0 and just adjust my mouse sensitivity using mouse dpi(using 4000dpi atm, used to use as low as 1600dpi).
User.ini

MouseX=Axis aMouseX Speed=1.0
MouseY=Axis aMouseY Speed=1.0

Some stuff might not work unless you are using 469C >

Ooper thanks Ooper

Any decent new laptop will run ut99 without having to tweak aside from your normal tweaks. I have a laptop from 2013 with hybrid Intel / Radeon graphics and that runs ut99 60 fps no problem with no tweaks.

I figured I'd ask as I'm an Intel guy. Didn't know if using AMD meant any specific changes.

Off topic, your profile pic, lmao

Cortez, I would advise you to test what Ooper gave you on what useless hardware, if it breaks down, you won't feel sorry for it. 😉

I'm still happy with my GTX 970, although the VRAM being the limiting factor in most cases for me, which is rare(BeamNG, PS2 Emulation mainly Gran Turismo 4)
