FPS drops after Felucia update (SWBF2)
Hello. I am a PC player and I am experiencing some FPS drops. My PC is quite good and I have never faced this sort of problem before even if I was running the game on ultra graphics. This problem st...

I have the same issues. The game worked fine for me without any lag / performance issues before the September patch. Since that update I am expierencing lag and FPS drops. This happens in MP & Arcade mode & Instant action. Even in the collection menu when looking at emote previews, the FPS suddenly drop.
The game ran smootly for me prior to the September update. I didn't change any ingame settings since the patch dropped and didn't change any PC settings, except installing the latest NVIDIA drivers and Windows 10 updates.
I have Windows 10 (latest update installed), an i5- 6400 processor, 8GB RAM and an NVIDIA GTX 1060 wth 6GB RAM. I have installed the latest NVIDIA driverd (440.97)
It would be really appreciated if you could look into this and apply a fix if possible, so we can enjoy the game again without any lag/FPS drops.
Found the root cause
Windows 10 enables a kind off vsync , noticed this by msi afterburner, my game was always running on 144 HZ (144fps) so even the intro that normally caps at 200 fps was now even 144 fps
tried few things than maybe vsync was enabled, removed settings folder from my documents, reset nvidia control panel, started game, nothing, stays at 144 fps and Gpu runs max at 64 % now
so was a hardware limit
than i went to my installation folder C:\Program Files (x86)\Origin Games\STAR WARS Battlefront II ====> starwarsbattlefrontii.exe = right click on it ==> properties ==> compatibility ==> change settings for all users ==> select " Disable full-screen optimisations "
i know this a known issue for other games, but since the latest patches seems i had huge fps drops = this selected , and Gpu runs back at 99% , in my case back high frame rates without drops
ingame graphic setting = High , no vsync, no film grain , no motion blurr , no vignette
attached Two screenshots from ingame : start from a new round , lock to fps and the graphic line

Thanks for the detailed steps! We'll make sure the team gets this - Can anyone else confirm this works?
@Mr_Fulgore : Hi Mr fulgore
do u have dx12 enabled ? I think we have another problem in dx12 mode cos I tried yur workaround : ====> starwarsbattlefrontii.exe = right click on it ==> properties ==> compatibility ==> change settings for all users ==> select " Disable full-screen optimisations "
and it s the same for me : huge fps drops during the game since the update :/
(no problem at all dx11 mode)
- @cyberfredcobra Disabling Full screen optimization did not work... havent played the game in a while and it use to work great... now I am crawling at 10-15FPS ( I have i8700k, SSD HD, 32GB RAM, RTX 2080)
- @Mr_Fulgore I followed all steps and it doesnt work.. it plays for a game or two and then it drops to 10 FPS... Playing Destiny 2 and Gears 5 no problems at ultra settings.... so this is just SWBF2
the same for me : ALL my games run perfectly !
I think something is broken since the update with the 3d engine of the game : I ve just tried a 1080p screen with 60 hz (old screen that I keep for testing only 😉 ) and u know what ?
My 2080 Ti is at 100% with 1080p@60hz vsync on with dx12 mode , it s just completely weird !!! that s why we have so many problem , in dx12 mode , 3d engine is completely bugged since the update.
- @cyberfredcobra Yeah, tried everything.. definitely game is bugged
