Low FPS/Stuttering When Zooming Out Past 150%

[Loken.Cerberus]

Anyone else having the issues where frames drop drastically when zoomed out past 1505? Sorry if this is posted elsewhere, just there is NO way my rig should have trouble with this. Screenshots of settings (set on low and it still stutters) and a rundown of my rig stats. Hope someone has some advice. Just cannot figure why it turns into a slideshow at further zoom, and it's even noticeable at lower zooms.

Is there some Java, or Windows Priority workaround anyone knows of?

Forgot To Mention using a G-Sync monitor if that matters.

I would bet your running high resolution. Lowering your resolution will greatly help with fps. For example on my rig with a intel 10900k rtx2080 128 gigs of ram. Win 10. If I run it at my monitors native resolution 3440x1440 and zoom out I get like 20 fps. But if I lower it even one setting to 2560x1440 it pops up about 20 fps at max zoom levels

Try to disable vsync. That helped me

High res was definitely a factor, as was vsync. The real culprit was editing the .json for the game and increasing it's available RAM. Still a BIT of lag when fully zoomed out but the VSync and Resolution help. Thanks guys!

Ok, one more question. Is there a way to scale the status icons (i.e Thirsty, Stressed, etc.) so that they are more visible. I forget they are there half the time.

if there is i dont know what it is

Recently i upgraded from a laptop i got in 2015 that had a 960m and and an older processor of that time. Played project zomboid back around that time no problem.

This year for christmas i finally got a new pc, a prebuilt (due to current market issues)
new pc has a 5600x and 3070.

I cannot get above 60fps. Zoomed out im hitting 15, and thats after going through each setting and manually increasing memory usage. At first zoomed in it was 10-20 or so.
I can play halo infinite on Ultra Graphics while streaming in 720p, locked at 100fps, cpu temp at about 37, gpu at 60-65.

I cannot figure out for the life of me how to get the fps up in this game. Gpu and CPU are barely being used at all. Chrome users more power.

After updating everything, i realized running Java -version in command prompt yielded nothing.
I downloaded latest java.
The games fps went up a good amount.
Zoomed out at 200% im locked at 25fps. any further than that is unplayable. Also locking mouse cursor seems to really solidify the game running in fullscreen.
Everything is maxed right now, so ill turn some more things down but i think i can live with this.

I feel it's especially unbearable in a storm.

I'll check on updating Java and unlocking more RAM. Reminds me of the days of yore when that was the only way to get Minecraft to run worth a damn.

I was in windows mode with really low FPS and changing to full screen it worked perfect for me.

Was all you changed the available ram?

Yep. Later on I also made a page file specific for that drive, it seemed to help a LITTLE, but it might just be me.
