How to Turn Off Bloom and Control Other Graphic Settings in RSDragonwilds

This guide shows you how to disable bloom and tweak other graphics settings in RSDragonwilds for better performance. Ideal for low-end PCs or players who prefer minimal visual effects.

⚠️ Note: Always back up configuration files before making changes.
Step 1
📁 Step 1: Locate the Configuration Folder

Navigate to this path on your computer:

C:\Users\<YourUsername>\AppData\Local\RSDragonwilds\Saved\Config\Windows

Replace <YourUsername> with your actual Windows account name.
Step 2
📝 Step 2: Edit Engine.ini

1. Open Engine.ini with Notepad or your preferred text editor.
2. Scroll to the bottom and add after the line [/script/engine.renderersettings]

r.Upscale.Quality=0 r.Upscale.Softness=0 r.Tonemapper.Sharpen=0.5 r.TextureStreaming=0 r.DepthOfFieldQuality=0 r.BloomQuality=0 r.FilmGrain=0 r.SceneColorFringeQuality=0 r.DisableDistortion=1 r.Tonemapper.Quality=0 r.LensFlareQuality=0 r.Fog=0 r.VolumetricFog=0

3. You can tweak these values as you see fit, (If anyone knows any other lines that affect graphic values feel free to share them.)
4. Save the file.

Optional: Thanks to user Terranin, he has provided us with a guide with a lot of lines for Unreal Engine Config Files, have a look and see what suites you.

Not sure how that would work Eel-Keeper, but I have many people who benefited from the guide, maybe try to experiment and switch out the options.

cut my FPS in half on a low end PC. Removing the fog makes the game render the stuff where the fog would have been.. cool guide i guess?

I'm a bit on the technological tism scale. Is 0 turning it off? I tried this and had no difference in my game with how vibrant and bloomy it looks

Thank you very much, I had been thinking about it for a couple of days and what a surprise to find this, thanks again.

I think the game needs some effects, but not so many. Could you provide an intermediate setting ? I'm going to try settings on my own.

If your engine.ini file doesn't have [/script/engine.renderersettings], just add it manually yourself at the bottom, then paste the settings underneath it.

Game definitely runs better after using suggested settings for ini, super helpful for me personally. PLEASE backup your original ini, for real.

Okay seriously use this guide. I got my fps from 80 to 140 after the engine.ini upgrade

Here's another fix from a discord user "Bucket", if you have an HDR monitor put this into the engine.ini:

[SystemSettings]
r.AllowHDR=1
r.HDR.EnableHDROutput=1
r.HDR.Display.OutputDevice=5
r.HDR.Display.ColorGamut=2

If you don't have HDR monitor you can try this line:

[SystemSettings]
r.AllowHDR=0
r.HDR.EnableHDROutput=0
r.HDR.Display.OutputDevice=0
r.HDR.Display.ColorGamut=0

Thanks for the guide, its like fixed like 80% of the blur that was making the game unplayable in 4k - There still like a little bit of blur, ill play with some settings and report back if i find anything more :)

Engine.ini doesn't have a /script/engine.renderersettings section
