You're now in your 7 Days to Die save folder. Save Location on Mac As Mac hides certain folders, it's a little trickier to find your save than on Windows, but still relatively easy.

Today I’m going to explain how to get a better FPS (+/- 60 FPS) for “7 Days to Die” game. So this game is still in Alpha, so it’s not that well-optimized. You probably play it at 30 FPS and constantly get lower FPS (8, 10, 20 FPS) and I’ve seen a lot of guides, yet couldn’t really found a good one. After a lot of testing, finally… I present to You my guide to get a better FPS and even if Your FPS will drop sometimes, it mostly won’t drop below 30 FPS (+/- 40 FPS for me).
So, let’s just get into it!
There are 2 steps you need to get into, the first one is customizing your Graphic Card, and the second is customizing your game.

Now, open up “7 Days to Die”, join Your game, and press “F8” to check your FPS. It should be around 60 FPS (can get down to 40 FPS and more than 80 FPS). Only at very rare case, it’ll drop to below 10 FPS, but again, very rare case. I’m testing My method with “Acer Predator Nitro 5 AN515-51 Core i5-7300 HQ”.
