1.0 lots of stuttering, for me or everyone?

Hi, for the last few days everything was fine, could plays for hours no stutters and now i'm dropping to 0 quite frequently, i just had an update thinking that was it and also updated my driver but it actually isn't the issue

I had to turn off Dynamic Mesh to fix my stutter.

It is a badly named feature for "render distant chunks dynamically". Basically, if you raze a big skyscraper and walk few chunks away, with Dynamic Mesh on, you'll see it still razed. Then if you turn off Dynamic Mesh, you'll see the skyscraper "restore" back to its original form, the way it was at map creation. It is a very heavy feature even I turn it off(RTX 4090).

My few other personal tips:
1) Turn down object quality a bit - model does a subpar job of LODing things, yet.
2) Do NOT turn off Occlusion. It is an optimization feature.
3) You might want to tone down texture filtering.
4) You might want to turn off dynamic reflections if you see that your GPU is struggling.

Actually didn't fix, the stutter is so strong the game exit

What part of the game are you in? Outskirts? The big city? Bloodmoon?

I have to stream the game in discord so that I can play, not sure why that fixes it, but it does for me.

LOL. Never heard about that one to be applicable to 7DTD. Deserves to be looked at by devs. A driver conflict or something, I guess.
I had a similar issue with Factorio and Linux. For some reason letting OBS record the gameplay, even on lowest quality, fixed Nvidia's broken Linux drivers that were rendering the window black(No longer an issue, in case you want to know).

I wanted to see how this game has been coming along since I last tried it, so I started a new game just tonight and I had the same jittery issue. Even tried turning the graphics settings all low and it carried on.

I tried the Dynamic Mesh idea and it worked, but only when I completely quit out of the game and loaded it back up and then it was smooth. I turned the graphics back up too and it ran fine until about a couple of hours into the game and then the jitters came back.

But I'm not bothered. I won't be playing it again, because I still don't like the direction this game has taken in terms of gameplay mechanics and balance. It's not fun anymore. Alpha 15 is still the version of it I preferred.
