Colo118: Ive had some big stuttering issue on my rig but im running with a 10 years old CPU I5 750 overclocked to 4ghz with an nvidia 1060.
I fixed the issue by creating the file cache folder and adding a command that uncapped the fps in the game. Now im running the game super smooth.
To do so you need to modify or create a shortcut that will look like this :
"D:\Gog\Games\The Evil Within\EvilWithin.exe" +fs_cachepath "D:\Gog\Games\The Evil Within\EWCache" +r_swapinterval 0
Right click on the shortcut then go to the shortcut tab and modify the Target line, for those who just want the uncapped fps just put +r_swapinterval 0
You need to create the cache folder and on the same drive where the games is installed
Edit: Btw im also able to play above 60fps without the letterbox.
Edit 2 : Ive also forced vsync off in the nvidia panel. Havent tried yet with vsync on.
I got a Ryzen 5 3600x, Radeon Rx 5700 8GB, and 16 GB RAM, I usually don't have issues with games, but oh boy, this game is a wreck, it ran at 13 fps and I was about to ask for a refund until I found your post, I applied both parameters for good measure and now it runs smoothly, the mouse in the menus is janky, but during gameplay is almost flawless, thanks a lot mateI fixed the issue by creating the file cache folder and adding a command that uncapped the fps in the game.
