Thank you for your report! Could you upload your user_settings.config file for us, please?

After doing that, could you try re-doing your graphics settings and re-applying them and seeing if it helps?

We noticed that you’re running with a lot of mods. Could you try uninstalling all of them and then deleting your user_settings.config file and trying again?

The optimization is so bad that this game cannot run well on a slightly old gpu unfortunately.
