Default configuration worked fairly well for me in my first hour. Perhaps it tanks significantly once your factory really gets into swing

It does. I only have 15 pals working and my deck is crying at 540p w/ fsr. Sub 20 fps around the bases, and takes a few seconds to unload resources and recover.

I find the locations funny. I don't have the game yet. Is this mod needed outside of windows as well?

I crash all the time. Trying this tomorrow. Talking hard reboot freezes 3 times tonight alone. Really annoying when I'm hosting the game my wife and I are playing on.

They need to fix the keyboard support too. I can't enter text with the on screen at all.

I haven't actually bought Palworld, but I've had similar issues with hard reboots in other games when I used up all my ram/vram. You might try increasing your swap file size and see if that helps.

I’ve had significantly less crashes using proton GE 27. The keyboard thing is very frustrating.

Been using 25. Just downloaded 27 tonight after the last crash

I haven’t done a ton of testing yet but last night I installed the mod linked below and I’ve seen about 7fps improvement. https://www.nexusmods.com/palworld/mods/27/?tab=description

There are two options for “cartoon” graphics which weren’t worth the fps gain IMO. I recommend the normal graphics option marked ultra performance.

It doesn't work once you bring it up. That's my point.

Weird I have had little to no stutters on mine, it's so nice to play it on the go

Now release a fix for dedicated servers eating 25GB of ram and crawling to 5-10FPS 🤓

I just started streaming it from my desktop. Too much for the deck IMO.
