They contain your gfx settings, you dont want to have to set them every time you start the game...
Specific places have low fps and stutter, especially cz. To say its unplayable everywhere is a exaggeration. In some places it is, and this should have been corrected prerelease.
Nowadays it's all about dusting off your router.This kind of fix reminds me of the days when, if you had any sort of performance problem with a game, someone would always tell you to unpark your cores. I miss those days
Sorry but that makes zero sense. The DLC was supposed to add new functionality, not to ruin what was already working fine.
To be fair, my router probably does need a good dusting. But then again, so does much of our apartment
I did not defend the game. I am a player not a FD employee. You are suggesting that horizons was 100% o.k. and EDO is broken.
ok?
If would help if update 8 give us cz and settlements without this significant fps drops and stutter. Of cause 50% or 100% more fps would also be nice and necessary, so I can brag how much fps I have. But we will get that only if we pic up the the free Hutton anaconda and I am not prepared for this journey. Maybe with update 9, 10, 11....@StefanOS
yes Horizons is not perfect but as you see there was 7 updates already in EDO and performance was bad and still is.
As for game engine, EDO is build on top of Horizons so game engine is not new but upgraded with same fundaments. Taking your point we will have to wait again 7years for stable EDO as it Horizons is now. You are very wrong.
Those performance issues shouldn't happen, issues was pointed out while we had Alpha release. Where was QA team before release, sleeping? No they knew game is broken but FDev released it anyways taking money from hungreds of players. For me (and not only me) it's not fair because we all heard "What you seen in alpha is very very first build of the game including planetary tech".
At last, we can make agreement if you belive (because I dont) that Update 8 will fix performance for the biggest feature which is ground FPS and it will work as intended. We will fly to Hutton Orbital for free Anaconda and I will buy you a big BEER there
That's an old trick that goes back to the days of XP. It's good advice, in a general sense, but I don't think it would have much of an effect effect here. Also, you don't need to do it in safe mode. Add the variable "DEVMGR_SHOW_NONPRESENT_DEVICES" to your system environment variables and set it to "1". Then, in Device Manager, you can activate "Show hidden devices" and all of the cruft will be revealed.
I was kidding, just joining in the reminiscing of old technical fixes.
good tip though!But before that gotta make sure most drivers are loaded into High Memory, so you have a lot of conventional ram free for Elite.
I'm getting too old to remember stuff like that now.
Or your Windows PageFile?
Then again, we already knew that around the alpha, when that post came out how EDO renders everything but the kitchen sink. Not that we can do anything about it.
