VRChat Performance Tips!

In VRChat
if you open your Launch Pad (Hand menu, not the radial)
go to the gear open the big menu
Go to performance options
scroll down
Change "Graphics Quality" to Low or Medium
and Multisample Anti-Aliasing to 2X or 4X
_~ICE~ on YT says to use 2X if you've set your resolution to 150% or higher and 4X for 100% or lower_

Then on the Launch pad again
Gear/Cog :gear:  > Scroll down > Performance
You'll find the options to
"Hide Avatars Further Than Xm Away"
And
"Hide All Avatars Except The Nearest X"
I recommend adjusting those 2 settings

In SteamVR settings
if you don't like the smearing/blurry effect from the interpolation
to turn off "Motion Smoothing"
Also always have your Render Resolution in SteamVR set to custom
Depending on your GPU and graphics preferences
I recommend setting the resolution from 50% to 150%
Set "Overlay Render Quality" to Medium
SteamVR Home can cause stuttering so if you don't use it probably good to turn it off
There's an option for "Advanced Supersample Filtering" I barely see a difference with it on or off
but with any form of Antialiasing it probably has some performance impact
One person said
"Switch it off if you prefer sharper images. Leave it on (as it is by default) if you hate aliasing and sharp line/pixel 'shimmer'."

For Oculus the motion smoothing equivalent is called "Asyncronous Spacewarp"/(ASW)

For Virtual Desktop it's Synchronous Spacewarp (SSW)
I actually like having SSW on but not everyone does so see if you prefer
to have it off/disabled, automatic, or forced on.
_I think SSW is only on the Quest 2_


Some extra Windows stuff for a lil bit more performance

"Windows Optimized Quickly for VR+"
_I might write it out later idk_
_for now I think this is a good amount of info that not everyone knows_
