[EvilKenevil]

I have a pretty decent gaming laptop, But it does have a fps fallouts on the real map, as in on flat i get maybe 40/50 fps and on real map i get like 20/30 - depending on machine i build could even be worse... and the area of map im at

What are your system specs and ingame settings

[EvilKenevil]

I normally run medium graphics with shadows and anti-aliasing and SSAO swited to LOW or OFF. Specs are as followed - bare in mind these are from a gaming laptop not a desktop pc -
intel i5 6200u - 2.3ghz
8gb ram
1tb hard drive
EDIT: running windows 8

What program are you using to see your fps?

[EvilKenevil]

Thing called EVOLVE - used to connect to none port forwards servers and more, it has a FPS counter prebuilt in...

can i ask you to try disable it, and try playing the game and lelling me the fps

To have fps showed ingame load a world and press enter then type /debug This will open alot of debug infomation, we are only interested in fps.

Only added about 1/2/3/4 fps it was jumping around all over as i walked around

evolve itself is a lagfest.just use fraps for fps counter.......i use bandicam.paid version.the fps hit is slight.

[EvilKenevil]

I seem to get much worse with fraps...

[EvilKenevil]

I think this is just something for the devs to sit on... I suspect in a few upcoming months optimizations will potenitally come to Scrap Mechanic. It is quite expected being an early access game. - Sort of only made thread as a little thing for them to see.

Have u tried updating your drivers?

[Turbo614]

sorry too hear that.my laptop specs are a bit higher than what you have and i run mine with particles off.helps enough.

That wont do anything much and i have tried before on performance improvments on other games and the drivers programme got doesnt match my laptop

This game is having alot of trouble with intel graphics, thats why im suggesting it as it has fixed many problems with intel graphics.
