Fix 1: Switch programs & move the game to SSD

This tip is from a player who figured out if his frames drop, he can use theAlt+Tab shortcut to switch out and back in. After that, the game starts running flawlessly.

Did you install the game in HDD or SSD? We recommend installing the game on SSD so the problem might go.

Since the FPS issue varies from person to person, we can’t promise this tip is working for everyone, but it’s worth trying.

Fix 2: Lower video settings

Lowering some of the video settings would fix the FPS issue in some situations. Make sure you’ve closed all unnecessary programs running in the background before launching the game.

Resolution 1366X768
Full Screen OFF
Borderless Window ON
Frame Rate Cap UNCAPPED
View Distance LOW
Vsync OFF
Nvidia Depth of Field OFF

It’s suggested to disable all NVIDIA options in the settings. These drain a lot of performance.

If this fix doesn’t help, move to the next fix.

Fix 3: Change NVIDIA settings

If you have a NVIDIA graphic card, change the NVIDIA program settings would fix the issue.

  1. Open NVIDIA Control Panel. If you don’t have it,download and install it.
  2. ClickManage 3D Settings > Program settings .
  3. Find Dying Light then select High performance NVIDIA processor.
  4. ClickApply to save changes.
  5. Reboot the game to check.

Fix 4: Update your driver

Graphic card and its driver are related to the FPS issue. The outdated or wrongly installed driver might be the culprit of the issue. Therefore, make sure you have the latest drivers installed on your computer is important. What’s more, updating your drivers would improve your computer performance.

There’re mainly 2 ways you can update your graphics driver: manually or automatically.

Option 1: Update your graphics driver manually

You can spend some time updating drivers manually by visiting your GPU manufacturer’s official websites and search for the latest driver which suits your operating system.

If you don’t have the time, patience, or computer skills to update your video drivers manually, you can, instead, do it automatically with Driver Easy .

  3. Click Update All to automatically download and install the correct version of all the drivers that are missing or out of date on your system.(This requires the Pro version – you’ll be prompted to upgrade when you click Update All. If you don’t want to pay for the Pro version, you can still download and install all the drivers you need with the free version; you just have to download them one at a time, and manually install them, the normal Windows way.)

The Pro version of Driver Easy comes with full technical support . If you need assistance, please contact Driver Easy’s support team at [email protected] .
