Low FPS in SWTOR
Hello! I recently came back to play with SWTOR and I have performance, FPS problems. My problem is when I just running around, during cutscenes, dialogs I have decent fps (80-100 fps), but when I sta...
I totally agree with you smooth gameplay is the aim, but when fps drops suddenly from 60 to 45 or lower over and over again it slows down the gameplay not to mention the warzones, which makes the game not smooth. I already tried fullscreen , windowed fullscreen, turned off AA and shadow but it didn't help at all. I even tried with very low setting and it was still 20 fps.
like I said warzones are a separate issue , I was under the impression it was engine issues on certain systems more the others, the reason I gave the link for the laptop wifi was it was the first time I had seen any reference to making a change in warzones and his latency was unchanged before and after yet the fps rose in warzones and we know a laptop is no where as powerful as a desktop.
the game engine does wait on render on certain communications hence why there will be a pause on mounting speeders , so I wonder if there was a correlation in the laptop situation.
name plate scaling may also make an impact on playability as the cpu can get bogged down with the adobe scaleform UI ( this is the UI used in swtor )
