In-Depth Description

The command r.shadowquality in Ark: Survival Evolved is used to adjust the quality of shadows in the game.

This command takes a numerical parameter, ranging from 0 to 5, where each number represents the quality of shadows.

Here are some examples of how it works:

  • cheat r.shadowquality 0 turns off shadows completely. This can improve performance if your system is having trouble running the game, but it will make the game world look flat and less realistic.
  • cheat r.shadowquality 1 sets the shadow quality to its lowest setting. This will give you some basic shadows without sacrificing too much performance.
  • cheat r.shadowquality 3 sets the shadow quality to a medium level. This is a good balance between aesthetics and performance for many systems.
  • cheat r.shadowquality 5 sets the shadow quality to the highest setting. This will give the game a more realistic look, but it can be demanding on performance.

If you are not encountering any performance issues with the game, you can set the shadow quality to the highest setting for the best graphics. However, if your game is lagging, you might want to consider turning down the shadow quality to improve the game's performance.
