Re: SWTOR Lag issues

@OndrejMicanek 

engine will produce a pause when opening and closing certain windows, but this is like a momentary pause 

Check windows power options are set to high performance when playing, and maybe disable vsync if set on, note to turn off vsync this can only be done in fullscreen mode , for nvidia if using vsync in the game profile in the nvidia control panel, set vsync to fast not just "on" see image

Also see if its more playable in fullscreen window mode

  • I have tried both of your suggestions with no positive change unfortunately. 

    Tried downloading the older version of DX9.

    Tried disabling the enhanced shadows (which I have read, do not work properly). 

    I have not been able to find any noticable solution. 

    I have been thinking, is it maybe because I am playing the Steam version? Are there performance issues with that?
