[4.10] FPS drop during Solborn Militia Outpost Defense Mission

Post by Lyam Telos » Wed, 22. Sep 21, 22:16

Hello !

- 4.10 (458643) - English
- Unmodded game
- Terran Cadet
- Nature of problem: Huge FPS drop to 30, then 23 fps during Solborn Militia Outpost defense mission. First the FPS was floored to 30 fps then went to 23 fps. It jumped a bit up when everyone was not firing anymore then dropped again when firing weapon started again in the second part of the defense. My usual FPS in sector is often above 60 fps, sometime above 100 fps.
- No changes made to the game or computer.
- dxdiag: https://pastebin.com/14Yp02xw
- vulkaninfo : https://pastebin.com/cs15FW3z
- Malwares Byte run (after dxdiag) came back clean

Some more info my config and system:
- CPU is overclocked at 4.70Ghz
- Game is installed on NVMe drive
- Game runs often slower when coming close to a space station or inside it (between 50-80 fps (which is more than okay!), but in some occurences it goes as low as 35-40 fps)
- I play with Firefox, steam and discord opened so the game has something like 8Gb of RAM available. I could close firefox when playing to test (but I also bought some more RAM to double up my 16Gb RAM).
- My GTX 1080 Ti is undervolted a tad to reduce heat and keep good performance

About the game:
- Here are my in game settings: https://i.imgur.com/PU2JJoj.jpeg
- I'm early in the game so I do not have stations and other ships. I didn't even deployed a satellite for myself yet.
- After saving then reloading the game, the fps was better around the station (56 fps)

I hope someone will be able to help me a bit with my FPS without sacrificing too much of the graphics (if possible).

Thanks in advance :)

P.S. I'm loving the Terran Cadet gamestart so far!
