Sharp FPS Drops on Static/Loading Screens
« on: November 11, 2020, 02:35:14 PM »

Whenever there is a screen transition, I'll just call it static since that's the visual effect that plays, FPS will tank from 60 to 3-5.
Modlist
  "lw_console",
  "interestingportraitspack",
  "lw_lazylib",
  "US",
  "lw_version_checker",
  "audio_plus",
  "shaderLib"
[close]
There are no crashes or errors in the logs. Running on linux, all drivers up to date.

Edit: Tested with all mods disabled, FPS still drops when doing something like opening a planet menu or going into hyperspace.

Hi - sorry about the trouble! This looks like the same issue as here; there's a workaround (and some explanation) in this thread:

Yeah, this doesn't seem like the simplest thing to search around for!
