Are you experiencing crashes when changing graphics settings and trying to play NARUTO SHIPPUDEN: Ultimate Ninja STORM 4 at 60 FPS? This guide will provide simple steps to fix this issue without any additional downloads or risks of malicious software.
Introduction
Do you have a high-end PC that can run modern games at ease and you want to play this masterpiece with 60 FPS?
You try changing settings and CA-BOOM! It crashed! What the actual Dattebayo is happening here?”.
You try different methods but still unable to get the game to be stable.
That’s what I was troubled with. But now I’ve managed to make game playable and run smoothly with my RTX card. So if you are one of my kind, stick along.
Do I have to have side applications or mods to do this?
Why does it happen?
Before I start explaining the method I would like to explain why it happens.
When you change in-game settings through game settings it does something weird to your graphics settings that is crushing the game.
I know from the internet that NSUNS4 saves your graphics settings in the file called config.ini. And when you change settings in game it does weird thing to the width and height of the game’s resolution.
If your screen size is 1920×1080 pixels then you should play this game on that size, right?
Um… right?..
The game doesn’t think so. When you change your settings from the game settings menu it actually changes the resolution of your game to roughly 30000+ pixels (at least that was the problem I saw in the config.ini file). So I’ve just changed some numbers in the file of the settings of the game and… Oh! It worked!
The Fix!
To fix the issue you must actually enter the game first and make sure to change graphics settings as you wish them to be.
Before you save your settings, make sure that you remember the settings you set and want to keep. Of course it is not necessary if you know what these things are but it would be easier next.
After you change the settings, you must save settings and exit the game (or the game will handle this by just crushing).
To locate the game folder, go to the directory of the game located in:
C:\(your user)\Steam\steamapps\common\NARUTO SHIPPUDEN Ultimate Ninja STORM 4
Don’t copy this file path because the username is different depending on the name of your user.
Or right-click the game in steam>Hover over the “Manage” list>Press “Browse Local Files”
When you find that folder, there will be file called “config.ini”
Open it with any text editor. I used the default text editor of the Windows OS.
Now! That’s where the fun begins!
In there you’ll see strings of text that are your settings of the game. They are easy to manage because the values are written in English language. Some are written in abbreviations like “vsync” that is Vertical Synchronization but it is easy to understand.
The first thing you want to change is your height and width. You can set them as you like but for clarity of the image, set the values as are on your screen. (If you don’t know what values they are on your screen, check how to find them on the web).
Change aspectx and aspecty if necessary. If you’re unsure what to write in there, check your screen manufacturer info or the web.
Then make sure to write 1 after ssaa or fxaa and 0 on the other one. So if you choose to have fxaa (that is if you want better picture) than write 1 next to fxaa= and 0 after ssaa=
It should look like this:
fxaa=1
ssaa=0
Than change if you want your game to be in full-screen or windowed mode.
It is done by changing the value of “windowed” line:
windowed=1 (for windowed)
windowed=0 (full-screen)
Now, if you want to have Vertical Sync turned on, you can write “1” after vsync=
vsync=1 (VSync turned on)
vsync=0 (Vsync turned off)
And the last part is the FPS (Oh boy! Finally!)
Find the line “fps=” and write 60 next to it.
fps=60
My Settings
[screenSetting]
width=1920
height=1080
aspectx=16
aspecty=9
ssaa=0
windowed=0
vsync=0
fxaa=1
showCursor=1
fps=60
The End!
