-*Vista, W7, W8 only*- Number 1.) Ok, so the first thing you will need to do, and its rather simple.. Go into your PlanetSide 2 directory and find PlanetSide2.exe, Right click it, click the Compatibility tab. From there, Inside the "Settings" box, click "Disable Desktop Composition".
- What does Number 1 do? This disables Aero, which notably increases performance.
-*All Operating Systems*- Number 2.) I have edited my UserOptions.ini to improve and get the most out of PlanetSide 2, by editing the UserOptions. Go inside your PlanetSide 2 directory, find UserOptions.ini, inside it..Copy my settings below such as [Display], [Rendering], [Sound], and [Terrain] over your [Display], [Rendering], [Sound], and [Terrain].
Note: Never click or edit any graphics setting inside the game with the UI. It will revert it back and you will have to change this again!

- What does Number 2 do? This will edit the UserOptions and strain it to get the most performance possible from editing it.
- [color=#ff0000]This is a very important step to do if you want more performance.[/color]
Beware: Laptops may have overheating issues for some reason, Desktop PCs will stay the same temperature as they did before.
You will need to download this program, it is possible to do it by registry, but this is more simple as the program does it for you. [color=#ffffff][color=#ffff00]http://www.coderbag.com/Uploads/Unpark-CPU-App.zip[/color][/color] or your could simply search on google "CPU Unpark Utility", its the first link. Once you acquire this program, extract it into a folder anywhere, Open it up and click the button "Check Status". This will check the registry to find how many cores you have and if they are Unparked, or Parked. Once it shows them up (Will most likely show an extra core for some reason) click on the button "Unpark All". This will Unpark your cores for maximum performance
- What does Number 2 do? This unparks all of your cores for maximum performance, and gives more power for PlanetSide 2. Will increase your FPS greatly, from Dual Cores all the way to I7s.
- [color=#ff0000]This is a very, very IMPORTANT step. You will need to do this to increase FPS.[/color]
