TPU's Dead Island Clubhouse

[Frizz]

Anyone new would also want the microstutter fix for the choppy looking 60FPS, you guys might not notice it but it is happening for everyone who is playing with a keyboard and mouse it is much less visible without VSYNC on.

Anyhow to get rid of it follow this link: http://www.dsogaming.com/news/dead-island-microstuttering-can-be-caused-by-keyboard-temporary-fix/

I am playing with a gamepad and the game runs 60FPS smooth as butter.

I agree for the most part, but I didn't understand where data0.pak was, so finding that video showed me. I basically just skipped through all of the talking just to find that part. So I mention it incase others can't find it as well.

Incase you want FOV fix as well and are a bit lost (the instructions out there aren't the best) here it is. Plus this guy goes over the rest of the tweaks as well.

Though none of these tweaks should help gain performance.

Awesome these worked wonderfully, bigger FOV is awesome and the shadows etc. really made a difference.

Yeah, I was getting sick playing at console FOV, also helps with massive weapons, your screen doesn't move so much.

Yeah it did in a way make my Sam B easier to play in analog mode (manual swinging with gpad) although 82.5 sort of starts to have the whole fish-eye effect thing from too much FOV so I have mine set at 72.5 which I am pretty content with now.

I've played through Act 1 three times with three different characters with all side-quests I am finding it hard to get bored of this game so far . I suggest anyone who has access to a xbox360 pad to give it a try as it's actually just as good as the keyboard and mouse but you have the option to use analog fighting which allows you to manually time your swings and in any angle you wish which imo is much more fun to break or cut limbs with.

I'm stuck gaming on a controller, and it works really well for me.


And like you, I doubt I'll stop playing any time soon. I will go through with each character from start to finish, for sure.

I seems like there's a new tweak every day. The only tweak I haven't used is for the fov cause with eyefinity you can see lots..

 

[1Kurgan1]

I wonder if people will try and make mods for DI, not really any other open world Zombie games, it does have potential.

Thats a nice one, they need to add shader options and all of the other tweaks to it. But nice thing is, that has some tweaks I haven't seen yet like over cast skies, weapon blur, dust clouds, and a few others.

It's all too easy to sink a good amount of time into this game without noticing. When you are done playing, you might want to ask the nearest person, "What day is this? Month? Year?".

Only had a quick skim thought he posts but did not see anyone complaining or a fix for always on mic.

But if there is some one here who wants to play using vent, mumble or TS3 what you do is run your game and start it then minimize your game and now disable your mic and enable it again which will kill off in game voice.

Friend and me got it working without echoing (we used skype) by setting a non-input device as the mic in the control panel, and setting skype to the working mic.

But it seemed to be a one shot fluke, since when we logged back in the next day it echoed again. Eventually you get used to it and soon don't notice it anymore.
Although its very annoying at the beginning.

AsRock, good information here man!!! I am going to copy the mic settings and include it in the original post under the "Tweaks and Fixes" if you don't mind

if you want to disable the in game voice, its tied into steam. set steams voice to push to talk and its all good.

I tried that and it didn't work, but I didn't restart Steam either as I was already playing, so maybe thats why. This was also about a week ago, so maybe it's changed and works when you do that now.

Just want to give a shout out to stinger608. I think your doing a great job as Clubhouse leader. I can feel your enthusiasm for this game and I think it makes others enjoy it as well.

Thanks....
