Hello Andrew, and thank you for the report! Are you experiencing the bad performance for the entire scene, or would you say some pockets are worse than others? If the latter, would you be able to mark them via /loc and paste the information for their location coordinates here? I believe performance for most major highly-concentrated city scenes is known to take a slight hit.

 

Hi Attenwood, it seems that after entering Resolute and looking NW frames are the worst. If I pass the area with the big statue and vendors around it, it doesn't seem to be as bad. Something in that area around the tall stone statue taxing the system badly. I believe that game engine uses mainly CPU currently, maybe things will change for better when you offload some to GPU to process shaders.. I am not sure how your engine currently works, but that's what I've heard.

 

Thank you for the clarification, Andrew! Adding this to our report and will investigate personally to see what might be creating this performance slump in the area described.
