Since the beginning of this patch , my fps are really weird , at first I couldnt understand or find the issue. I would get super smooth capped 60 fps ( so probably more than 60) after starting my session and would quickly go down after a couple of minutes , as low as 20-30FPS. When getting low fps , i would restart the game , get stable fps , and then go down again. Over and over again. Now I know what the issue is , i’ve tested it many times. CRAFTING ITEMS ! If I open the crafting UI and craft an Item , performance gets worst. If I do it again , it gets even worst. Hopefully there is a fix soon !
Oh and , great job EHG , amazing patch and love the insane potential of the new monolith system!
Myself and one of the community testers have found issues with FPS on the Stash & Inventory UIs… I have not personally noticed the same in the crafting UI tho… Your system & settings info could help when trying to reproduce your specific finding…
Thanks… I will link this to the other bug post threads…
In theory the Forge UI and the Inventory UI open at the same time could definitely be related… The other tester found an odd thing with the inventory being full of 1x1 items like rings caused an FPS drop so anything is possible… It could even be a problem with doing multiple crafts one after another…
Out of interest… if you set the game settings to a really low config like 1080p, 60fps framerate limited, every setting on very low or disabled… Does it stil exhibit the same FPS drops that get worse and worse?
Yes! And Stanzwar replied to me on reddit saying they found the fix to my exact issue. Apparently it was caused by opening the crafting materials panel for the first time during a play session. I’m glad they are already working on a fix! Gotta love EHG!
