This answer attempts to answer the same question for Linux users and more completely than is possible using comments. Note: The OP specifically mentions Windows Explorer and presumably is on Windows. If you don't use Steam Cloud for your save files, then they're supposed to be located in C:\Users\\Documents\Witcher 2\gamesaves Next, I went to the NVIDIA Control Panel –> Manage 3D Settings and changed the value of the Low Latency Mode setting to “Ultra”.Īfter this configuration, I launched the game and could only confirm that these were the necessary actions to have a non-stuttering Witcher 2 experience.According to this gamefaq forum thread, if you have Steam Cloud enabled, then you'll find the save files under C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\userdata\\20920\remote For all remaining settings, I kept the default values. Once there, I only altered the Texture Memory Size (MB) its value “Very Large”, as my GPU has 6 GB of VRAM.

You may also need to limit frame rate and/or enable Vsync.Īs first step of the solution for my system, I performed an Auto-detect Best Settings in The Witcher 2 its “Configuration Tool”, which can be triggered via the Options menu when launching the game. To fix this use your GPU configuration panel to manually set the value of “Maximum Pre-Rendered Frames” (Nvidia) or “Flip Queue” (ATI) to 1. Allocating insufficient memory for texture storage can result in delayed texture rendering and constant stuttering during gameplay. For a 512 MB card, it is recommended set this to ‘Small’, whereas for a 1 GB card set this to ‘Large’. This is how much of your graphics card RAM is allocated to texture storage. Locate the option for ‘Texture Memory Size (MB)’. Launch the game and navigate to the ‘Options’ menu on the launcher. There are two possible causes for this issue: What follows here, is how I managed to fix this for my own setup. But then I found more information about the issue here, which I have quoted below. Even though lowering the graphical settings, the game did not want to run fluently on my recent PC.Įspecially FPS drops and constant stuttering ruined the experience.

After completing the first Witcher game, I immediately started the second one, but that did not go as smooth as planned.
