How can i fix fps drops?

Arensnuphra

Hello dear cosmoteer users! I've problem which is pretty upset me.. Just 1 v 1 big size ships and when they fighting my game lagging like hell. My system is pretty high end.. ( Rx 480 8gb, Ryzen 5 2600 3.4 ghz, 16 gb 3000 mhz ddr4 ram and 480 gb ssd and game installed on ssd )

How can i fix that?

Arensnuphra The mods Cosmofine and Speedset might help you, it's just that large amounts of projectiles and crewmembers take quite some processing power to simulate, so there is not much you can do besides slowing the game (Speedset) or reduching the simulations (Cosmofine). And lowering graphic settings usually helps too btw, Cosmofine has you covered in that regad too tho.

Arensnuphra Yeah, as Walt mentioned, a savegame would be quite handy (Mediafire is great for attaching that sort of thing to the forum). My specs are actually pretty similar to yours, and I can run 10 of the larger built-in ships without dropping below 15 FPS, so the game lagging from just that alone seems unlikely

Walt

It'd help to know what ships were actually slowing down the game for you. I wouldn't expect 1v1 between the largest Bounty Hunter ships to lag on your rig.

I'll release a video about that. So you can see. Thanks for the comments btw.

Arensnuphra That seems about right to me. The terror, being nearly twice the price cap in BH, and having more crew-per-credit than usual, is basically the most intensive ship in the library right now. I just recreated that scenario myself, and got a very similar amount of lag.

As far as lessening the lag goes, turning off fancy particles helps some people, lowering the game speed (Which speedset allows you to do to a much larger extent) will always help, and if need be, Cosmofine should allow you to run a lot more stuff at the same time, at the cost of some physics accuracy

I used cosmofine and its look weird and didnt help me. I guess dev's need to optimize the game. Because I'm running space engineers with big ships witohut any fps drops.
Thanks for help budy 🙂

CaptainRedstone

Arensnuphra Weird, Cosmofine should make your game ridiculously faster...

Anyway, optimizations to the game would always be nice, but I think the game runs pretty well as it is. Sure running a lot of stuff requires you to slow the game speed down, but it can certainly handle most situations with ease
Also no problem! Tech support is kinda enjoyable : D

In my defense, Space Engineers doesn't simulate thousands of crew simultaneously. 🙂

Yeah, SE doesn't simulate any crew only your avatar, and at best one NPC on an enemy ship. And those only man the cockpit and don't do much else.
