Alpha 20 Performance
I gave up some work time to try alpha 20. I don't know if it helps at all or not, but the cities are loading a little slow and some of the guns produce some lag. I also almost fell through the road in one area.

I have an Nvidia RTX 3080 with a Ryzen 9 3950x 16-core processor. It isn't my machine.

I'm also getting 60 fps in the game now which is very nice. Alpha 19 got me about 45 on a good day. I did manage to really bog it down though. Zombie spawn and other obvious stuff.

I know it's experimental. I just thought that maybe some people were lagging and thought it was their machine. It's definitely not your machine.

The textures look great.

I don't understand the point of the supercharger for the truck. It only adds 1m/s. I'm sure that has to do with the world not loading fast enough, so it's understandable just doesn't bring much to the table.

Pipe guns are fantastic.

The best gun is the lever action rifle. That is a great addition to the game.

The drone is awesome, but I likely won't be using that very often.

Does any perk affect the pipe tier of weapons? Gunslinger didn't affect the pip machine gun.

If you're new to the game, Gunslinger + SMG = Endgame Buzzsaw.

Are you playing SP or MP?

Also: Gunslinger is for pistols IIRC, doesn't work on machine guns!

Best fix I found honestly with lag and framerate, dedicated server. I am on a 2080ti with an i9 9900k, both on water and pushing some clocks to some serious limits but even in A19 running with an i7 7700k spare pc I have...I would always average 60fps, usually with vsync off to check things it usually on my system will be in the upper 70fps.

On A20 I am now actually seeing around 80fps. Only times I have seen lag is still with the usual sunset and sunrise. Not sure why but that has always been an issue for my setup when those times hit. I have full Ultra settings on so if its possible you may want to try dedicated server options if you can manage it somehow....seemed to fix all my lag for pretty much all the time. I am doing 4k Ultra settings so the 3080 should be doing better than my setup I would suspect

I play single player, and the vanilla SMG is tied to the gunslinger perk. It shoots pistol ammo.

Are you sure?
Do you have XML proof of this? :reconfused:

I'll just repost here :

Running it on a XPS15 9560 with a GTX1050 4gig.

I play online on a dedicated Nitrado server using a 10k random gen map. Most settings are low to off. It will run amazing for a few minutes and then chug like crazy for a while making it unplayable and come back to butter smooth. Very serious FPS drops.

I don't recall having those issues in alpha 19 with basically the same settings.

the xml name of the smg is gunHandgunT3SMG5 and it comes after the pistol and all tags are perkGunslinger

ever since the game changed from action skills to perks they for some reason put it into gunslinger instead of machineguns
