First, I want to point out, that I'm not sure, wherethere it's the light shafts/lighting, that decreases my fps.

So I have been playing Witcher 2 for a couple of hours now. I can run the game on 25-30 fps, but sometimes I come across places, where fps drops down to 15 fps. I've noticed, that those are the places, where you can see light shafts (even though i have light shafts turned off), like the ruined elven bathroom. I'd like to turn off these light shafts/lighting completely, but every graphics setting, that has the word light involved in it's name, is set to the lowest. I was woundering, if there is a configuration file, that would allow me to turn these light shafts/lighting off.

Here is how much fps I usually get:

These are the light shafts, that I'm talking about, and how much fps I have in the ruined elven bathrooms (light shafts on top of the water fall, the deeper into that lighting i go, the lower goes fps):
