Re: Battlefront II Campaign Massive Stutter

I had this problem too, nearly unwatchable first cutscene due to lagging/stuttering. I used the console command "RenderDevice.RenderAheadLimit 3," and turned off the Origin and GeForce Experience overlays, and it's 97% better. Still get hiccups now & then, but almost never gets out of sync, no more than 0.5 second pauses. I haven't played with it much to see which of those is important, I think only the RenderDevice command, but anyway it worked for me.

Hope this works for you. Found this solution at https://battlefront-forums.ea.com/discussion/82088/stuttering-lag-cpu-max-out-please-help

  • Sven-RIT your link is dead, but I tried it and this has worked!

    The start of the opening cutscene still froze for a couple of seconds, but after that it was fine.

  • Link wasn't important, I was just trying to credit my sources. Glad it worked for you!

  • I don't even have GeForce Experience installed and i always turn off the origin overlay but it seems that the latest update has fixed this issue. Well, atleast for me.

    EDIT: There is still some micro stutter here and there but i hope the devs fix this in the next update.

    If you don't have GeForce Experience and always have the Origin overlay turned off, then of course ignore those steps and do the third step.

    these fixes did not help me. i hope the devs fix it soon. the first opening cutscene is unwatchable because it stutters so badly. i run ultra with no issue otherwise. i am considering a refund due to this.

    And you definitely tried the last step before starting the campaign?:

    In-game, open the console (which key that is depends on your keyboard, but probably either tilde (~) or the one next to the number 1 (`)) and type 'RenderDevice.RenderAheadLimit 3' (without the apostrophes) and press enter.

    Changing "RenderDevice.RenderAheadLimit 3" worked perfect for me. Thanks.

    I tried all thus and the cutscenes are so much better. But it seems that the actual gameplgay now stutters more than ever. Like nearly unplayable when I'm playing as iden
