xaropalis Posted January 4, 2020 Share Posted January 4, 2020 So i started playing avorion again after a few months on the beta branch, every time i log in a server i play fine for a few minutes then my fps drop from 200+ to 10 and i hear some audio crackles when this happens. Any tips? OS: Windows 7 CPU: AMD FX8350 RAM: 16gb DDR3 GPU: NVIDIA 1060 6gb Client Log: https://pastebin.com/NqrVRv0T Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WSY Posted January 5, 2020 Share Posted January 5, 2020 While this may be coincidence your the second person to report issues with 16gb ram A 1060 And a 83xx AMD CPU. The other person had windows 10. I will reply here in a bit with a few things that may be worth trying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WSY Posted January 5, 2020 Share Posted January 5, 2020 I apologize ahead of time as I am not sure where your PC knowledge level is but here.is a few things to check. Mouse trails or custom cursors? Sometimes and oddly can cause fps issues. Any sort of weird dpi scaling set in windows? Also, sounds odd as well, are you able to log and verify your video card clocks go up when you start the game? And...can try setting windows mode, full screen, window full screen. My last resort recommendation is to try the old clean boot. So only essential windows services and drivers are loaded. (Not safe mode). Basically standard startup but with non of the extras. (BEFORE DOING CLEAN BOOT, I posted again with a few things you check and try before hand below.) Full disclaimer: only do it if your confident and know what your doing. Dont be offended, I just have no idea of your PC knowledge level, you also may have done this already or know more than me- but just trying to help. If after clean boot still no go, then could be a bug specific to your PC config. Clean boot info because I'm too lazy to type it out: https://www.windowscentral.com/how-clean-boot-windows-10?amp Also fair warning, if you overclock hardware etc, may want to make sure the specific softwares for temp control and over clock monitoring are not disabled, or set thing to non overclock in case those very softwares are somehow conflicting. AV software also sometimes gets a little angry and will throw warning that spyware is trying to disable your system. Lastly if you rely on AV make sure to turn everything back on (also on webpage on how to re-enable everything) before browsing the internet etc. If still no go, post dx diag and hopefully devs can help out.

xaropalis Posted January 7, 2020 Author Share Posted January 7, 2020 Sorry for the late reply i didn't notice you had replied. I have no mouse trails or cursors. No dpi scaling. Clocks do go up. I have shuffled through window modes no difference. Already done a clean boot. Im guessing the issue could be one of the mods used on the server im connecting.

unbekannt1984 Posted January 9, 2020 Share Posted January 9, 2020 Hi, have you checked your Firewall/Antivirus/Internet-Security? There's some software out there, that doesn't know Avorion... Behaviour-Analysis and so on could cause some load on your PC. What's about your internet-connection? Are you using some kind of Router that might allow traffic-shaping?

DivineEvil Posted January 9, 2020 Share Posted January 9, 2020 Just for the sake of clarity, is your computer stationary or a laptop? Many laptops have a function to impede the performance of processing hardware to avoid overheat, which I think can be disabled in BIOS setup (perhaps even in Windows settings, but not so sure). This was the only way it happened to me in the past, and I have a fairly similar hardware setup to yours right now, but it is a stationary PC. I have never seen any similar issues with any of the games I've played so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WSY Posted January 9, 2020 Share Posted January 9, 2020 Ahh devil is in the details, you did say you login to a server. How about when you start your own game for solo play, any issues then? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AMD called it Cool'n'Quiet (Intel ACPI). There should be settings in the BIOS/UEFI, target- and maximum-temperatures and so on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have never seen any similar issues with any of the games I've played so far. Im on a stationary computer, water cooled max cpu temp on full load is 35c. Cool n Quiet turned off power settings set to maximum performance, cpu is not throttling. What i noticed is that when this happens gpu usage drops to really low percentages but i have no integrated gpu and default gpu is already set to the one i use. I wonder why i also get audio artifacts and glitches on a stedy repeating pattern. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VipeNess Posted March 12, 2020 Share Posted March 12, 2020 I'm also experiencing fps drops constantly within game too. It happens when you first load the game in the main menu, multiplayer area and while playing (constantly). i7 8700k, 32gb ddr4, 1080ti, nvme m.2 drive Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TESL4 Posted March 12, 2020 Share Posted March 12, 2020 Its laggy when I first log in, but that is all the lag I have experienced. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
