Ha! I guess we have a problem here. i didnt delete any file
btw lantern on zero even didnt work for me, it seems like i have it on 3/3, so i literally couldnt turn it off
i guess on every pc you will have different porblem. Removing mask shouldnt help with FPS, but should help with error-crush
Sooooooooooo its sad i can't help you, so mes excuses
\ upd
And here it is not that the game does not work. It worked just a couple of versions ago, but I'm 97 percent sure that processing light and torches ruined everything. I played back in version 1.1.1, and there was not a single lag, neither with saveings, nor with a mask, nor with the drawdown of the FPS.
I am ready to do its “optimization” by arguing with my antiviruses, unchecking “read-only”, twist the lamp slider and periodically remove-install patches, which didn’t clearly make it worse or better. I like these games, I love The Imperial Gate Keeper, and would like to find similar. But besides me there are people who don’t want to do this, and it would be nice if they could at least get acquainted with the previous version, where they don’t need a diploma to graduate from the “Game Optimization Academy, By Reinstalling and Interfering into the Root System of the Game”
That’s all I can advise FROM MYSELF, that I checked ON MY EXPERIENCE
Turn off the antivirus, uncheck "Read Only", try to understand whether the patch is better or worse, put on a mask, trying not to use 'chest fucking', and just pray
I really can't help anything else. Based on the foregoing, the game can be played, you can go. FPS will fall, but not critical, sometimes slow down, but I have never died because of this
God bless you guys
