Wow, you'd think this was an Early Access Game... Oh, Wait

Yes it is an early access game, however, these are effects that have been in the game since the start and this is basic graphic engine work - they've had what, two years to do something.

We waited this long for Mistlands because they were apparently fixing bugs, well, yeah some bad bugs have been fixed but there's new bugs, and old bugs that have gone nowhere.

You could run a Unity engine (graphic) optimizer with BepInEx. It allows to tweak with more parameters than the in-game configuration options. Some might help you perhaps, either to alleviate your issue or to embellish the game, but I can't help more.

Though, iirc, one of parameters of interest is the number of cast rays used in the computation of cover, collisions, etc.

IG put in last patch notes that they did some optimizing iirc. Ck it out.

its been bad since the start , as soon you reach the mountain biome and starts to snow for me that play at 72fps cap , drops on the snow storm to 20fps just because of that.

inside the base , the more light , stuff you craft and add less fps starts al 72fps , few days later the base turns to 30-40fps because you make the home and stations.

mistlands... you reach the biome and the so called Mist its like the snow particle effect that drops the fps to 45-50 exploring , stuttering etc.

its a shame i have the game since the start 2years to release a ''biome'' that its just few rocks to climb 24/7 , dwarfs , bad magic implementation and 0 graphic optimization.

time to move to V rising this is annoying to play lazy devs , look at modding pages they worked more in 2 years adding horses and stuff than these lazy devs that still need to figure out deep north and lava.. when the mod comunity allready put there ores and armor and weapon sets -_-

Got the same problem with my rx 5500 xt. Seems like the devs hate AMD :D

Maybe when the game is closer to release.
