• Save the file. Don't check read only if you want to customize setting in-game!
  
  
• If you want to unlock fps by disabling Vsync you can edit the line "iPresentInterval=1" inside the ini file and change the 1 with a 0.
  
  
• If you unlock fps make sure to cap your frames with your graphic card software to whatever you desire after that because you will face engine bugs. In short if you can't move your character (know engine bug for unlocking frames) then lower down the fps cap.

IMPORTANT NOTE:

• You can also change your resolution in-game, and you can touch most setting in-game besides the obvious that will override my settings like shadows, textures, lights etc..

EXTRA NOTE: (If you want to enable some SFX again)

• If you don't like effects like Sao, Volumetric lighting disabled or you think you can handle that, you can enable them again but this are very demanding effects specially volumetric lightning. It can be enabled by changing this lines from 0 to this values:

bVolumetricLightingEnable=1 (high perfomance impact)

iVolumetricLightingTextureQuality=1 or 2 for better quality (high perfomance impact)

bSAOEnable=1 (medium perfomance impact)

For old hardware users:

• If you really need more frames or lack enough memory on your graphic card besides using medium textures you can also put shadows in 1K, but note that shadows will look really ugly, you are advised. If needed then change the line iShadowMapResolution to this value below:

iShadowMapResolution=1024

• To fix this its also very simple just go to your Radeon settings sofware go to Fallout 76 profile scroll down and in tesellation select "override" and pick x16 option. ENJOY

I did this changes based on my F4 settings and hours of testing in fallout 76, this not only removes drops but also gives a huge gain in frames without losing visual quality, from 49 fps to more than 100 was my gain and i only have a modest RX 480 with 8GB, so give it a try :)
