Seafarer: The Ship Sim: To Anyone Experiencing Bad Performance or Graphics (Workarounds)
Short answer
No confirmed fix yet. Players suggest: "Also set user-defined start parameters on Steam: -USEALLAVAILABLECORES -high -dx12 -USEALLAVAILABLECORES: Uses all CPU cores.
How to fix it
- Check the official public beta branch for the latest hotfix provided by the development team.
- Adjust the in-game graphics settings. Some players report that performance and visual fidelity improve significantly and stuttering stops after playing through the initial mission and adjusting settings without changing any external hardware.
- Apply user-defined launch parameters in Steam to force your system to utilize available resources more effectively. Add the command to force DirectX 12, the command to set process priority to high, and the command to utilize all available CPU cores.
If it still doesn't work
- If you receive an error message stating that DirectX 12 is not supported on your system when trying to launch the game, remove the DirectX 12 command line argument from your Steam launch parameters and try running the game again.

Yeah so unfortunately I have the latest update of Intel Iris XE and have Direct X 12_1 so in theory it should work why isn't it letting me play though I get this message “DirectX 12 is not supported on your system. Try running without the -dx12 or -d3d12 command line argument.” the moment I hit Play please help
I had Issues with graphic fidelity as well as bad performance like low FPS and a lot of Stuttering in the first 30-45minutes of playing... i played around with the settings a bit and suddenly after the first mission it got a lot better and now it runs on max setting at a constant 80 to 90 fps no stuttering and it looks great. I did not change anything on my PC or Hardware only ingame settings…
