FPS Drops on Planets?

Does anyone else have stutters on planets with particle effects like Chasca and Tantau? I keep trying fixes but nothing seems to work. I have a 1650 Super so my graphics card should be able to handle it. I checked with a friend who has a1050 from years ago and he has no issues. Anyone else having this issue?

    Hey there! Do you know if you have the latest driver for your video card? Drive updates come out often and if it's not updated it can cause FPS drops.

    If you think it's updated and still happening, would you mind attaching a DxDiag so we can look at your Windows errors and system specs?

    Hey, @EA_Blueberry! Thanks for the reply! I update my drivers via GeForce Experience. Are they different for specific graphics cards?

    @mpwtee0v4gbx GeForce Experience helps find the correct drivers for you which makes it easy. If you were to manually install it you would need to know your Windows version and graphics card type when navigating their site.

    @mpwtee0v4gbxUpdate your drivers through GeForce Experience, all right, but tell it to perform a clean install. I had issues with other games as well, and I did what I said. It solved this stuttering and another issue I had in MELE: bloom effect misplacement in light sources. Well, no 100% guarantee that it works, but it did for me.

  • A clean install? I usually do custom installation through Experience.

    Edit: Did a clean install, unfortunately, nothing seems to make a difference ☹️. Still dropping from 144 to like 75 FPS on Chasca.
