GUIDE FORUM THREAD

[edit]

Purpose of the Guide

This Guide exists to help STEP enthusiasts and new comers alike with lower end systems, specifically those who have only 1GB of VRAM, complete a STEP installation with all mods; a full STEP installation. Typically, new comers that are limited to 1GB of video RAM will often get over zealous with the mods; not realizing the effect they have on their systems and often revert back to a Performance STEP install:

Performance STEP:
Core mods only; performance options wherever possible. These recommendations will not be much more that the official recommended system requirements.
"My poor box needs all of the mercy that I can spare it, but I can't do without STEP!"

This; however, is not necessary. In the following sections, you'll learn exactly how to maintain a full STEP installation without stuttering and performance issues.
