Is it bannable to use nVidia inspector to increase FPS?

★★ Novice

Hello,

 

Playing the game on a side PC (potato) leaves me with a blurry game like that of wearing coke bottle glasses. I'm a big fan of frames over appearance, and certain YouTube videos describe ways to update the textures, anti-aliasing, etc. via a tool called "nvidia inspector" to increase FPS. The result won't win any aesthetics awards but it's smooth.

 

 Dropping resolution, optimizing Windows, using performance mode, etc. just doesn't do it.

 

Will players get banned making these config file and graphic card adjustments? 

 

Thanks.

Could you post an ingame picture? It looks like a lot of details such as grass, trees and such might hardly appear and increase visibility.

Which would be an unfair advantage towards other players.

I agree I highly doubt this will be allowed as visually you will have the upper hand. though I'm hands down for it myself.

If you YouTube "ULTRA LOW FPS BOOST FOR LOW END PCs" there's a video with the full breakdown. Attached another screenshot.

 

I might agree that there is an advantage, but those who have better PC/audio hardware technically have a much higher advantage over someone with 25-35fps. Skipped frames is a bit of detriment to accuracy Large smile

 

Other companies reintroduce objects like bushes/grass at the absolute minimum so it could be patched in the future.

 

Players manipulate power performance, drop control panel settings down to severely low settings, etc. but I don't know if there's an official perspective on this. It's not worth a ban, so I thought it's worth asking publicly.

no you can not be banned, for example, I can only play the game fluently if I use invidia inpsector and change my vidioconfig settings, because my pc is a potato Standard smile and I simply asked an ea member and he says it is OK . here is the proof! I link the conversation!
I hope I could help

Streamers have been banned for using this in Battlefield 5. EA are very inconsistent with their rules.
