4fps on cutscenes??

[hellhoof]

I'm running an 8700k with 32GB and a 1080ti. Any ideas of a fix for getting cutscenes to run like the rest of the game and not drop to 4fps?

First, find out whether CPU or GPU or something else is hogged during cutscenes.

That's a $4000 set up. "hogging" should not happen in the first place.

To OP, cut scenes are messed, they go for 5 to 15 to 30 fps, The game is not very well optimised to say the least, and cut scenes have been like that since the get go.

Never seen a laggy cutscene even on a 2012 PC.

fx 8300 and a 1060, only using like 16 gigs of ram. Cutscenes are fine for me. I'd suggest actually checking where and what is clogging your pathways.

I have a similar setup to yours and I had the same issue with a cutscene. Turning off V-sync seems to have fixed it for me.

Thanks! That was it! When I got to the next cutscene (currently playing Monastery section of game), it was at 30fps. In game, it's around 75fps. Settings are at Very High with textures on Ultra High. My resolution is 3440 x 1440. Weird how the cutscenese are treated differently from the rest of the game.

I'm really happy to have them no longer playing at 4fps. This issue only started after some update, but I'm not sure when, because I play on and off.

I recently returned to the game and started a new save,so it was very annoying when the cutscene suddenly started messing up like that. I have no idea when or how the problem started,but at least there's a simple fix for it,so glad it worked for you as well.

2080, 16gb, 2700x and the same here. Jesus Christ, 2 years after release and they still did not fixed it.

Fixing your ineptitude was your parents' job.

Why are you fanboying all over this game, are you being paid to protect them or what? It's a decent game, but the truth here is, that even after that much time, the game is bug riddled.

I've been playing lots of FPS games on PC for well over two decades. I know what a "bug riddled" game really looks like.

There are many real issues with KCD, and I don't refrain from pointing them out. There are legit bugs, including those that I myself tested, reported and saw fixed.

But I also have a habit of calling out ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ when I see it. And what I routinely see on the forum here is whiny spoiled brats, especially those with clear hardware issues or just plain own ineptitude, ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ and crapping on the game for no good reason.


In this particular case, Vsync=ON causing 4 fps in cutcenes is a symptom of something being wrong - and certainly not with the game, since it works fine for thousands of people, including those with similar or same hardware - and it should be properly investigated and debugged, not just swept under the rug by merely disabling Vsync, which is a provisional solution.

it's not your rig. This game is badly coded, the studio is simply incompetent at code optimization.
