How To STOP FPS Drops & Lag In Fortnite! (Cosmetic Streaming)

if you're wondering why offsporn your Gamers suddenly become super laggy very glitchy and where some characters just refuse to load in just overall being really weird well it's because of a recent update they added a new installation setting called cosmetic streaming if you go with your desktop right now and you open up the epic games launcher inside of here go over to the library on the left hand side and select fortnite where those three horizontal dots are then click the options menu right here then under the fortnite install options if you scroll down you'll notice a brand new setting called disable Cosmic streaming and you'll notice it's actually unchecked by default and this means that it is enabled currently and what this does in game is it means you're streaming every single cosmetic texture that's in the lobby as they appear in front of you which as you can imagine can and will increase your network bandwidth slash usage because you're obviously streaming every cosmetic as it does appear in front of you and on top of that as well it can actually decrease your performance and from what I've heard from some users already and this can all happen if you leave this setting unchecked which does mean it is currently enabled however if you actually check this setting and disable the Cosmetic streaming what this does is when you play the game you're no longer streaming every single cosmetic around you as you've already pre-loaded all the Cosmetics textures assets when you do tick this mnv fortnite install options right here you can see in game it says installs all cosmetic streaming assets that would normally be streamed during gameplay so when you go in the game all the textures will be pre-loaded already essentially and this means it'll not only reduce the strain on your network usage but it can also increase your performance and improve it overall so there's no sort of spikes or any sort of glitchiness going on with the textures so yeah if you do tick this option you might be a bit hesitant because it's nearly six gigabytes but in my opinion um to actually get better connection and improve ping from not having a stream every single cosmetic after think it's definitely worth it to check this setting and disable the Cosmetic streaming in the game after you've done that too don't forget to click apply again it only costs nearly six gigabytes but that's nothing really compared to the benefits you will actually get from it and remember this is unchecked by default so right now literally go into the fortnite install options and make sure you have checked this it'll help you out a ton if you've especially got bad internet or you do have any sort of issues when loading into the game with textures and stuff like that especially cosmetic textures is that what the setting is all about but yeah also on top of that I would highly recommend disabling the DirectX 12 shaders if you do not use DirectX 12 and myself doing I use performance mode so uncheck this and then on top of that as well the high resolution textures if you want more FPS and more storage on your PC you can also uncheck this one as well I think the best config right now is having the core one obviously enabled that's by default and then also having disabled cosmetic streaming enabled as well again it's an additional size but I think it's worth it overall so if the video has helped out feel free to drop a like on our drops on the channel and use my code and catch us in the next one and be sure to check out any of these videos on screen right now
