That's probably Grand Sector, which is known to be a resource hog, as is Adjusted Sector; more stuff on the hyperspace map is going to demand more from your system, it's just the way it works. The campaign game is optimized for a certain size, exceed it, and it gets demanding real fast.

Nothing to do with faction mods!

I should have mentioned that without the mod, I have a solid 60fps with approximately 50-60% idle percentage, with a good dozen faction mods but when adding GT it then tanks the fps even when I remove the other faction mods.

I'll try a previous version if possible, as the post by Alluvian says that was better for them.

First of all, let me thank both of you for reporting this issue. From what you're saying, this happens only on the campaign side, so I may know where this come from.

Let me know if this also happens during battles!

[Lerzan]

As far as I could tell, it only happened on the campaign map (in a system or hyperspace), when in any menu or docked with something the fps jumps back up to 60fps with 70ish idle percent and when in a medium sized battle it was at 60fps and 85 idle percent.

Hopefully this information is somewhat useful!

[KnightOfTigers]

It's indeed helpful, I guess I've got my hands down the problem. The thing I've tested seems to improve the performances on the campaign map, so I'll upload an update soon.

Wanted to update now that I've been able to try the new patch, everything is working great and even with a full mod list I'm getting 60fps and good idle percentage. Thank you for the support!

Excellent, quick work on resolving the issue! Really enjoying the new GT Derelicts you have put together thus far. Also happy to see fewer baguettes in pirate fleets on average. While amusing to encounter, the humor is lost a bit when they make up the majority of the large/capital component of pirate fleets.

Amazing mod, I especially love the GT habitats you can find around the sector.

The battle music is also pretty good, it's a shame more mods don't have stuff like that.
