Many games launch with optimization issues, later patched. *FragPunk*, however, has enjoyed smooth performance since release. While further frame rate improvements are always possible, here's a guide to optimal *FragPunk* settings and crosshair codes.
Recommended FragPunk Settings Overview
*FragPunk*'s settings are divided into five tabs. Beyond the Video tab, most settings affect quality of life and accessibility, not performance. However, some can enhance gameplay. We'll highlight those. Others can remain at default or adjusted to personal preference.
General Settings
The General tab offers mostly quality-of-life and personal preference options. Experiment to find what suits you best. These are the settings worth adjusting (though some preference remains):
- Automatic Climbing – On
- Automatic Sprint – On
- Camera Shake During Sprint – Off
- FOV Sprint Scaling – On
- Flash Eye Guarding – On
- Keep Player Centered – On
- Minimap Orientation Rotate – On
- Performance Metrics – On
- Ping Visibility – 1
- Hide Overly Visible Skin Components from Enemies – On
Keyboard/Controller Settings
Customize your keybindings here. With Automatic Sprint enabled, consider binding walk to Shift, a common setup in tactical shooters like *VALORANT* and *CS2*.
Sensitivity Settings
Personal preference dictates sensitivity settings. Experiment or use an online calculator to convert settings from games like *VALORANT* or *CS2*.
Audio Settings
Adjust Sound Effects to a comfortable level. Lower Music, Announcer, and Button Volume. Enable Character Voice Simplification to remove unnecessary banter.
Voice Chat settings are a matter of personal preference.

FragPunk Best Video Settings
The Video tab offers the most significant performance adjustments. These settings prioritize performance over visual fidelity. In a competitive shooter like *FragPunk*, frame rate is crucial. High-end PCs might handle higher quality, but these settings are optimal for most users.
