Any tips on how to tweak Steam Deck performance in dense areas?

Upvotes

I got Open MW running just right on my Deck and I’m having a ball! However when I go to areas dense with buildings or trees the fps takes a hit. It’s not a big deal, I’d just like to know if there’s a magic bullet out there.

I’ve adjusted most of my settings to be consistent with various guides - like view distance, water shadows, etc. I’ve also knocked ground cover density to 50%

Short of turning off post processing, is there anything else to do or is ol Steamy just maxed out?

Trying to play Open MW on my Rog Xbox Ally and controller support works great but the mouse cursor i control with left stick is invisible! Please help!

What the title says basically... I installed the latest version of Open MW on my Rog Ally and the mouse cursor i control with left stick is invisible.

I tried: changing from fullscreen, windowed, borderless window, nothing worked.

Any help will be appreciated! :3

Taking a short expedition to Cyrodiil to move some of my assets to my old bank from my Telvanni accounts to protect and diversify my investments … I ended up purchasing a Manor in the area… great covering for concealing more of my assets move of the ladder… I then recalled myself back to my My Tower. Traveling from the north-most part of Telvanni territory, some of my duties for Master Aryon by purging his Egg-Mine Of Blight and Ordirniran of invaders…I headed south after flying all night to reach Ordirniran only to happen upon a fellow Dunmer who had been trapped in a Laboratory of a mad Wizard and his monstrous experiments…what first I thought a bard that I had saved turned out to end up with landing me a capable and formally trained Nightblade in my service after pledging it to me in what he feels is a life-debt. To being pleased with by a fellow Telvanni Afflicted with a curse in his home of the Velothi Tower of Imala to put him out of his misery as long I pledged to hunt down and kill the one who cursed him…and after investigating the cursed daedric artifact with the help of his enslaved gondolier that I had freed the mounted investigation and found our way to the underworks of The Telvanni Canton and came face-to-face with the peddler of these cursed artifacts. With me posing as an interesting buyer: I confirmed his tainted wires as he sold me the exact same cursed statue, he sold my former housemate… after a very short battle, I put him down fulfilling. My obligation went back to the now freed gondolier: who learned that this tower by rule of Telvanni right was now mine… not a bad days work all in all… till tomorrow’s adventures Sera…
