Hi all,

I have been loving Alpha 3 but I have been noticing Frame Drops drops lately in a pretty small park!
Here are my specs:
Intel Core i5-4460 Quad Core 3.2GHz
8GB RAM
2GB NVIDIA GeForce GTX 960
Windows 10 64bit

In Alpha 2 I could run on High settings getting around 50FPS but I mostly ran on Medium settings getting just over 60.
And now in Alpha 3 (with a small park) I'm getting 20-30 FPS on Medium settings [cry] I know optimizations are still being made as this is Alpha but I didn't expect it performance to get worse! All my drivers are up-to date as well.

Pretty sure they've up'd the engine a LOOOOOOOT.

I use to get over 80 FPS on max settings alpha 2.

Now in alpha 3 it seems everything looks way nicer, Am now down to around 40 fps everything maxed on a 980TI at 3440x1440

It' also running slower for me! Global Illumination does not seem to be an performance heacy feature to me (practically), and it looks gorgeous! [yesnod]

how do you enable it to show fps?

Steam has this nifty integrated fps counter. Open up steam, then click the top-right where it says "Steam" then go to Settings ->In game->In game fps counter. Now when you play games from Steam, you should see the small grey fps counter where you choose it to display.

HEY PEEPS

I have a 6th gen Intel Core i7-6700k and Sapphire Nitro back plate version AMD Radeon R9 390 GPU. I play in High everything maxed out settings on 1920x1080 resolution, and get 30-48fps. Alpha 3 has tonnes of new stuff even I am overwhelmed!

Attention devs/Frontier staff: Where are the security staff? They're not there in Park Management. But Janitors are. I just finished playing the game Alpha 3 version for an hour it's good. And my saves from Alpha 2 are intact. It's 5:12 pm Wednesday 24 August NZ time. I use MSI Afterburner. I'm just editing my 58 minute video then I'll upload it to YouTube. I have 10mb/s upload speed and the raw recorded file is 6GB. I should be able to get it up on my channel within the next 3 hours XD.

I had a drop in FPS on mine as well. I know my system isn't the best so in the future will most likely have to upgrade. Don't know if I should upgrade my processor (AMD Phenom II X4 @ 3.4 Ghz) or my graphics card (Nvidia N460GTX) first..

First time with this game I've felt it necessary to drop my graphics settings. In a park with just 3 shops and a dive coaster, it was already starting to show lower then I'd like FPS..

Yeah glad I'm not the only one with these problems. As for your hardware, I wouldn't be able to help you with that (I don't know too much about computers) But there are a bunch of people on here which could help you out so maybe make a thread or PM one of the Devs [happy]

What FPS is acceptable? I noticed i'm only getting 15-25 now....

60FPS is the sweet spot with most games. But this game is in Alpha so there are loads more optimizations that need to be made so it should be a lot better when the game launches in November

i have a gtx 1070 FE and my frames have taken a dive from 60fps to 25 fps even on medium,i have 5,000 guests and 6 coasters and about a dozen shops.we are probably just gonna have to wait until hardware catches up just like rct3.3 years from now this won't even be an issue, thats why i asked if we could limit guest's in the park on sandbox in a future update.

Hey everyone,
I also have an fps problem with the game at times, but I was able to find a way around it. The game's frame rate decreases the longer you have the game running. I was building a coaster in an empty park and I noticed as I was building, my fps went from 80 to around 30. So I tried going to a different park that had lots of trees, rides and building pieces and I was getting 50 fps. This didn't match with my other park, so I tried launching the previous park again and I was back to 80 fps again! So try re-opening your park if you notice a tank in the game's frame rate. Hope this helped!

wow... If your getting 25 fps i'm not worried. Clearly we're all over thinking it. Until my game lags or crashes i'm going to ignore fps until the final version.

It also depends on what kind of CPU you have too since this game IS CPU intensive too especially with the AI. If you have a good GPU, the game is going to perform better on a quad core i7 processor with 4Ghz clock speed compared to a quad core i5 processor with only a clock speed of 3.2Ghz.

this is odd coming from me: i feel this game doesn't NEED a full 60 fps, while it would look WAY better, its not a FPS game so having 60+ fps isnt like a full necessity. But obviously atleast 30 in this game is playable. Like i said thats odd coming from me cuz i would always say that 30 fps is unplayable. but this game its decent at. I run it at about 40-50 fps with a medium park with my specs (in my signature) and i dont see much of an fps problem, yes the camera isnt super smooth, if ur atleats at 30 fps you should be good.

Hi guys,
I am hopping, that the game will get SLI support or somebody can figure out, what SLI mode will work.

I got an x34 predator with 3440x1440p and you need much power to get it under fire :) So I am ready with 2x GTX 1070 in SLI but don´t know, if SLI will work..
