Fix Marvel's Midnight Suns Stuttering & Low FPS Issue On PC

In this article, I will tell you how to fix stuttering and low FPS issues with the midnight Suns game on your Windows computer.

1. Skip the 2k launcher

Now the first step is to skip the 2K launcher so for this go to steam make a right click on the game select properties and under General over here you can see the launch option now if the game is installed in C drive then you can copy this command this location 

C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Marvel’s Midnight Suns\MidnightSuns\Binaries\Win64\MidnightSuns-Win64-Shipping.exe

Copy this and paste it over there if the game is installed in a C drive you can use this location paste it over here and then launch the game it will skip the 2K launcher now if the game is installed in some other drive.

D:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Marvel’s Midnight Suns\MidnightSuns\Binaries\Win64\MidnightSuns-Win64-Shipping.exe

If the game is installed in D drive you can use this location so make right-click over there and select properties so over there if the game is installed in another drive then you simply change the name of the drive so if the game is installed your D drive so in my case the game is installed in right so if the game is installed in D drive you can change the letter over here as d if the game is installed in e Drive you can change the letter over here e so just change the drive over here and then launch the game it will straight away launch the game so over here you can see it skipped the launcher and it is launching the game without the launcher so you can try this.

Now if you don't want to use this method so in the launch option if you don't want to use any kind of commands over here then you remove this there is another method you can go to the game installation folder make a right click select manage then click on browse local files it will straight away take you to the game installation folder now use this exe file over here you can see midnight suns.exe make a double click and launch the game from here so over here you can see the game is launching without 2K launchers.

So I can see the game launching over here so you can see it's launching without the launcher so let me close this now use only this exe file do not use the exe file from this folder for me when I'm launching the game from here using this EXE the game is launching without 2K launchers now if you open midnight Suns and then open binary has been 64. if you launch using this exe it will open a 2K launcher and for me, it's opening so over here you can see it's opening a 2K launcher.

So when I'm using this location when I'm using this shipping exe it's opening the 2K launcher this is happening for me but if I'm launching the game using the using this exe file this one the game is launching without the 2K launcher so you can either launch the game from game installation folder using this exe file or you can use this command if the game is installed in C drive you can copy and paste it in the launch option over there if the game is installed in C drive you can use this command now if the game is installed in another drive maybe F drive or D drive or e Drive simply change the name of the drive over here and copy everything and paste it in the launch option and then launch the game it will skip the 2K launcher so this has worked for many players so it might work for you. If not work then try the second step.

2. Clear the download cache in Steam

Now the next step is to clear the download cache in Steam for this go to steam click on stream on the top then click on settings now go to downloads and over here you will see the option which says Clear download cache click on it once done now try launching the game once this is done restart Steam and then launch the game this has worked from many players so it might work for you.

3. Turn off Ray Tracing, try DX11 & lower down graphics Settings

the next step is to turn off Ray tracing try dx11 and lower down Graphics settings so launch the game first foreign now go to video over here select dx11 now try window full screen or you can try Window mode lower down resolution so if this is set to 4K you can try 1920 into 1080P or you can even lower down more for resolution scaling set it to none now go-to graphics and then if the Master quality is set to Epic you can try high you can go for the medium you can even try low and then check now scroll down if the depth of field is on turn it off turn off motion blur and lower down Graphics settings and then check the performance.

4. Run the game on the dedicated graphics card 

Now the next step is to run the game on the dedicated graphic card so type in graphics settings in the Windows search box and then click on Graphics settings now click on browse and go to the game installation folder if the game is installed in C drive open C drive program files x86 open the Steam folder open the steam apps folder open the common folder over here you will find the game folder in my case it's in e Drive so open Steam Library steam apps common and then open the game folder select this exe file and then click on ADD once the game is added click on options select high performance now click on Save click on browse once again open midnight Suns folder binaries folder win64 select this exe file click on ADD once the game is added over here click on options select high performance now click on C and then launch the game.
