...because she just LOVES to see her man in a uniform! 😍😍😍

P.S. It's happening ya'll The mods are making the game top tier *CHEFS KISS*!!!

I am definitely seeing the vision for Smartzoi. I prompted my zoi to always be outside flirting with women and smartzoi did not disappoint! He headed to North Beach at around 10pm (this was not on his calendar), talking about he's looking for women to flirt with in the smartzoi thoughts box.

He now autonomously flirts with women in the day time when the beach is packed too. Smartzoi also has him check his phone for women. This is insane!

The story telling capabilities are ENDLESS. I can't wait until this feature becomes super smart and starts to trigger different emotions and relationship dynamics. So far I am very impressed with how this is going!

My zoi just went on the cutest little solo trip and met some new friends along the way. One even sent her a cat video! I love this so bad!

This game is the future!

The recent relationship logs in the callout menu is NEXT LEVEL! when I say, I am getting all the TEA without having to even go and look at the memory logs. THIS IS EVERYTHING! I love this feature so much!

I don't even think the dev team know how fire this game is about to get in the next 3 months with the fame system and script mods.

After her divorce, she shaved her head, bought a revenge outfit, cried for 3 days, got over it then decided to have a beach day by herself.

She's about to get back to her massage parlour business as things have been getting super busy while she's been away!

*sigh* love this game!

Also just want to say, I LOVE that finances still increase even when you take a break from your household. As a rotational player, this is GOLD!

Guys I'm actually so excited about this.

In TS4 I used to put a Coachella stadium in Chestnut Ridge as well as some boho airbnb's and I am SO excited to do something similar in INZOI.

Other things that excite me about travel:

• Business trips
• Vacations with extended family/friends
• Destination Weddings (being invited by other zoi's autonomously)
• Travelling to visit relatives back in home countries
• The possibility of having some members in a household go on vacation and others stay at home but have the ability to control both!
• New countries/cities to visit in the future

If Inzoi gets this right and they implement story progression across countries, I just might lose my mind!

Is anyone else looking forward to this?

Nothing to see here, just a fake ass friend getting caught after having a baby with her best friend's husband. The aftermath was TEA. Why was "friend" smiling though?

Look at the texts at the end between "bestie" and both her friend and her friend's husband! Sometimes she would text them both at the SAME TIME!

Who needs enemies fr?!

The way my jaw dropped open when I stepped out the elevator after calling the babysitter! This game is so next level, it's unreal!

This is SO cute!

If you have been STRUGGLING with your graphics stuttering, ghosting, artifacts with Global Illumination on High/Ultra and grainy shadows...I have just cracked the code!

After playing Inzoi for over a year with a powerful RTX 4090 graphics card, I believed that because I was playing on a laptop, there must just be a limit to how high I could set my graphics and I settled for Medium Global Illumination with a mix of high and ultra settings to “balance” my game but BABY! Boy was I WRONG!

I will put my laptop specs at the end of this post so if you have similar specs, feel free to try this out.

I am not an expert, I just know what worked for me. If anything I mention goes over your head you might just need to do a quick google search so you can follow along, it’s all easy. I just had to quickly jump on here and break this down for all of you and as a future reference to myself.

You will need:

• An Nvidia Gaming Laptop/PC (Preferably one with similar settings to mine – RTX 4090 GPU Intel 19 139000HX Processor)
• Nvidia Control Panel

 Firstly, if you have 13th or 14th gen Intel CPU - Update your BIOS to the latest version. I used to always skip this but found out that not doing so can damage your CPU overtime. (You can usually get the update through your manufacturer, it’s really quick + easy)

Second, if you have an OMEN laptop like me, inside the OMEN Gaming Hub, make sure your Performance Control is set to optimise for "Performance" and not "Balanced" as the latter will throttle your performance and cause stuttering. For those without an OMEN, essentially you want to make sure your laptop prioritises performance over power saving and that performance is not being limited by your default PC settings. Make sure to allow use of more battery power to improve performance for gaming.

You will also want to set your fans to auto or high to make sure they are cooling both your GPU and CPU and not overheating while you play.

In game settings:

Next, I have uploaded screenshots of all my in-game settings in this post so feel free to copy.

Pay special attention to the following:

Display Mode: Make sure it's Fullscreen and not Windowed or Windowed Fullscreen as this can affect visual performance and increase ghosting.

Resolution: Make sure this is on the max your PC can achieve.

Nvidia DLSS Super Resolution: This NEEDS to be on DLAA, any other setting can introduce unwanted artifacting/ghosting.

Global Illumination Quality: Needs to be set to either High or Ultra  (This will allow you to use Lumen)

Global Illumination Method: Lumen

Lumen Ray Tracing Mode: Hardware (I tried software but found hardware to be better)

Maximum FPS: — THIS MADE THE BIGGEST DIFFERENCE FOR ME!!!!! — let me explain this:

You will first need to find out what your monitor refresh rate is and make sure your system is using the most powerful one (if you are using multiple monitors): In Windows go to Search Bar, type Display Settings, Scroll down to Advanced Display, where it says “select a display to view or change its settings” at the top, click the dropdown to check if you have multiple displays.

It may come up as “wired display” or “Display 2”

If you have one dedicated for gaming i.e Nvidia GPU, you will want to default to using this for Inzoi.

Click on your gaming display and take a note of your Hz number. This is your monitors refresh rate (MRR). Mine is 240 Hz.

Back in-game, set your Maximum FPS to unrestricted (we will need to restrict this elsewhere but it means your PC can run at it’s smoothest and take full advantage of all the FPS it can safely use.

Defaulting to the correct display (reduce ghosting):

If you have multiple displays, one may be dedicated for gaming and the other just for regular use and your PC may be set up to switch between both. To make sure the gaming one is always selected I did the following:

Omen Gaming Hub – Graphics switcher – Open Nvidia Advanced Optimus – switch to Nvidia GPU Only

Limiting Max FPS (reduce stuttering/protect hardware):

To do this, go to Nvidia control panel, Program settings, Select Inzoi,exe as the program, 2. Use global setting (High Performance NVIDIA processor)

Change the following settings:

Background Application Max Frame Rate: Off

Max Frame Rate: (set this to 3 less than your Monitor Refresh Rate you found earlier) – My MRR was 240 Hz, I set my Max Frame Rate to 237 FPS.

Vertical Sync: On

Click Apply.

 

That’s it. All done. This fixed my slowness, stuttering, ghosting is pretty much non existent, no more weird glowing objects with global illumination. It’s truly incredible!

I can’t believe I finally fixed my graphics after so long.

My game is smoother and more beautiful than it had ever been. I was even able to throw on realistic shadows and this didn’t tank my performance once bit like before and the shadows are far less grainy, not absolutely perfect but WAY better than before.

If you have similar specs, give this a shot and see if it works for you.

Oh and one last thing, I was experiencing random game freezes after changing these settings. If this happens to you, it is most likely an issue with Windows accelerating your GPU:

TO FIX THIS:

On Windows 11 Press Win + I on your keyboard to open Settings.

Go to System - Display.

Scroll down to the Related settings section and click Graphics.

Click Advances graphics settings.

Toggle Hardware-accelerated GPU scheduling to Off)

Restart your PC.

Boot up and Enjoy!

Happy Gaming x

I really can't wait until they implement a "go for jog" feature to exercise. It's going to be so immersive!

Smartzoi has so much potential! It's honestly amazing but I see it getting so much better over time! I imagine modders as well as the personality system may improve on this a lot.

I made this husband jealous of his wife's business and the little thought bubbles that pop up now are so funny!

I love this game!
