2 years ago As much as I appreciate the effort put in here and can actually see some value, something like this is very much preference of the user. I'm actually in the process of downsizing the page as it already has too much information overload and adding on to it will only get more confusing.
Lets brainstorm here.
What if we made a place for stuff like this but maybe not on the main page. Just like Public testing, it links to a separate page. Maybe setup another PR on a separate page and link to it somewhere on the main page in a tiny section. And we can go from there.
Maybe include that they are your custom settings/preference as some users prefer different things. I'd include screenshots/videos as well to be more thorough. Not everyone is running the same spec and can get away with a lot better graphics, or vice versa. I don't really think one size fits all really works here when it comes to in game settings.
The page could possibly be more like a "these are the settings i use" type thing. I still not sure what or how this would work.
A better option and more viable in my opinion before you start anything is to create something in the issue tracker similar to how were doing public testing here: https://github.com/seathasky/FF14-MAC_ModSupport/issues/16. I'd probably be more on board with that, as other users can easily submit there results.
What are your thoughts?

Hi there,
I've spent some time (possibly a bit too much) experimenting with the graphics settings in-game running under Crossover to work out what's worth tweaking and what isn't.
For example, options such as LOD and texture filtering really improve how the game looks, while having little impact on FPS. Ditto for Shadow Cascading.
Other options, like Tessellation, don't play nice with Crossover at all and halve FPS is some areas while providing no improvement to graphics.
I've documented my findings here in the README - please let me know if this isn't the right spot.
Cheers.
