trick, so in order to fix that, follow the below instructions:

bottom of "dinput8.ini":

[Import.HighFPS]
Architecture=x64
Role=ThirdParty
When=Early
Filename=high_fps.dll

{*} Save the changes and launch the game. ( you will encounter an error about game
version not being compatible yada yada...... kindly ignore the error and continue
with your game )

3D vision fix for NieR Replicant [Optional mod]:
https://pastefg.hermietkree...
-> Download the file and extract its contents in the "NieR Replicant
ver.1.22474487139" folder, where "NieR Replicant ver.1.22474487139.exe" is.
-> Launch the game and let it overwrite the save profile.
-> Preferably play the game in borderless fullscreen windowed mode, which triggers
3D in this game (Windows 7 may not work right with that). That way you can alt+tab
safely without crashes.

The above mod fixes the following issues:

- Haloing problems.
- Shadows.
- Lighting.
- Fog.
- Skybox.
- Volumetric lighting.
- Light shafts.
- Distortion effects.
- Screen space reflections.
- Stereoized specular reflections.
- Disabled barrel distortion, which is annoying in 3D.
Hotkeys for the Mod

- F1: convergence presets (0, 0.5, 1, 2, 3). 2 by default. Depending on your

convergence taste, something in the 2.5 to 3 range may be preferable for you for
normal gameplay. Cutscenes will trigger a preset with 0.65 convergence.
- F2: HUD depth. 40% by default.
- F3: HUD toggle. Not disabled by default.
- F4: FXAA toggle. Disabled by default.
- F5: motion blur toggle. Disabled by default. It doesn't include motion blur from
using magic, dodges, etc. Just the annoying camera motion blur.
- F6: depth of field toggle. Not disabled by default.
- 0 (not the numpad): bloom strength multipliers (x0, x0.25, x0.5, x0.75, x1, x1.5,
x2). x1 by default.
P.s. The high fps / stutter fix works only if you think that it actually fixes the
issue at your end. ( It did for me but I cant vouch that it is beneficial for
everyone else ). So use it at your own convenience.
If you want to revert back the changes just delete the "high_fps.dll" from the main
game directory and also revert the dinput8.ini changes as well.
