Hey hey! Long time player but first time poster.
I recently upgraded to a new computer from an older Macbook but have been having trouble getting Starsector to run at high FPS. I could previously get 40-50 FPS on a 2012 MacBook pro even with a dozen mods on the current build, but I can't pass 20 FPS on vanilla now on a higher spec comp. One thing I noticed is that Starsector isn't taking up much CPU power, less than 10% at any given time, even during battles where FPS is most affected.
Steps I've taken so far:
- Added memory in vmparams. Load times are very fast but performance is still bad
- Updated to latest drivers. No effect
- Tried both windowed and fullscreen. No effect on performance
System specs:Processor: Intel Core i7-6700HQ 2.6 GHz (Intel Core i7)
Graphics adapter: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060 (Laptop) - 6144 MB,
Core: 1405 MHz, Memory: 4000 MHz, GDDR5,
ForceWare 368.79, Optimus
Memory: 16384 MB, 2x 8 GB SO-DIMM DDR4-2400,
Dual-Channel, 2/2 in use, up to 32 GB
Mainboard: Intel HM170 (Skylake PCH-H)
Would be great to get some help on this. Thanks in advance!
