So I tried the UE5 version yesterday and it was playable at a 40something FPS with around medium settings. Today I opened it again and the FPS is just getting locked at around 15-16 on any settings no matter what. In the pause menu I get the normal, expected FPS, but during gameplay it's back to 15-16. What the hell could have happened?

On a related note, turning off that Lumen thing entirely gives me amazing FPS (barring the current issue of getting locked) but it causes visual glitches like this everywhere:

Edit: Okay yeah there's definitely some sort of save/load corruption bug. Loading an older save restored normal FPS, but any new save and load from then on brings back the low FPS, and any save and load further than that lowered even more (4-5). Basically I can't load any saves newer than my current stable one without crippling the FPS further and further.

This is a frequently asked question. In short, UE5 is getting more work done. UE4 is dead but more developed.

UE4 version is the previous build, which means it got father but was retired with the interest to build more content on a better game engine. UE5 is the new one that has less content, but it is developed relatively faster than the UE4 version was because much of the work is porting assets from the previous build, mostly only slowing down for additional effort required for some porting, bugfixes, revising content to work better in the rebuild, and adding new content.

is pregnancy added yet?

Avoid pregnancy, this mechanic is critically bugged. Although perhaps NPCs getting pregnant is not dangerously bugged. Read on.

Confirmed problem scenario: If you play a female character and get impregnated by an NPC, a quest will initiate that causes some stats to go up then down. Programming for this is very sloppy -- a quest boosts stats upwards with scripts that operate once during its stages, and the game's baseline pregnancy mechanics have scripts that lower stats downwards when pregnancy is done. See the problem yet?

The quest only works once, the very first time. The stat reducing scripts apply every time. Which means every time after the first pregnancy, your stats only go down. So low that your melee attack damage will go into the negatives.

Possible problem scenario: the same pregnancy message also plays when female NPCs give birth. I didn't test if the pregnancy script negates stats from the player even then or if stat decreases apply to NPCs like they do the player. Maybe NPC pregnancy is safe, but if an NPC does get stat decreases and has to get into combat later, this could be an issue.

In short, avoid pregnancy! You have to go to a special location to enable pregnancy mechanics so they're not on by default. Do not enable player pregnancy. Be cautious about NPC pregnancy.

1.Go into the game,
2. load any save,
3.press [save],
you will see the inscription "game saved",
4.exit the game,
5. open folder %AppData%\Local\Carnal_Instinct_UE5\Saved\SaveGames
6. copy the filename with the largest number at the end, for example: "Quicksave_Slot14"
7. rename the downloaded save file exactly the same (for example: Quicksave_Slot14)
8. move it to the SaveGames folder (allow replacement)
9. ready!) in the game you can choose this save

OOF, I did the same and the game does not let me start the save when I press the button
