Beyond: Chapter one - performance took a hit

So, I just installed the Beyond: Chapter One update and logged into ED.
My previous settings worked like a charm, with 98% of time being at 90fps, now it's 98% of time at 45fps, even in the hangar.

What should I sacrifice? :(

These are my settings (click to enlarge):




My specs:
i7-7700K, GTX1080Ti, 16GB RAM, etc.
 
Ambient occlusion and shadows are good ones to lower. What GPU do you have as I am surprised that you can get all that on with the game 98% 90fps in the old version.
 
Ok, so I'm not alone. Just launched ED after a long period without using it as I saw this big update coming, and performance are very bad. I was also at 90fps most of the time and now it's stutters and jitters. Mmmm not happy... Does some settings shifted and need to be adjusted?
 
I had to drop ambient occlusion from high to medium and drop hmd settings from 1.5 to 1.25 to maintain 90 (testing at the new Guardian site). Other than that I think our settings are the same.
 
As it says in the OP, GTX1080Ti.

Sorrt missed that right at the bottom. Probably best to keep all info with the rest of the info in your threads. Anyways back on topic. Just lower some of the settings until it gets about right. You probably won't notice much difference.
 
Performance was pretty much the same for me tonight as before, MSI 1080 GamingX in VR. I switch off AO, and shadows are set to medium. HMD - 1.25.
Res sites were running better with the card being used at a higher percentage. Before it was running at 48% ish with poor performance.

Judder, jitter where none existed before.

GTX 1080

Nvidia or AMD? I have an AMD Vega 56 and a Rift, and if anything the game runs smoother. The only thing I have come across, is a very slight flashing when turning my head in the SRV.

Edit: This is in solo.

Thats interesting so did I ! ...in the SRV. (Nvidia) But performance in general was virtually the same. Even on planet surfaces.

Is it fair to assume (or hope) that there will be a patch in the upcoming week or two that will hopefully address a number of little things like this?

Didn't people report this performance hit during beta?

Nvidia 1080, i7, 16Gb RAM, SSD, etc.

My point is, it wasn't there during the beta but...I'll try again tomorrow.
