Question: Does this addon render all screens at the same time, or does it render one, yield, then render the next? Because I lowered my resolution from 512 to 256, and I'm still getting the exact same amount of lag when I look at my security station in my dedicated server that has 11 screens (with three of those screens dead due to missing camera sources)

Is there any other way of increasing performance short of lowering resolution? Frame rate is already set to 10, and draw distance won't help because they're all on the same wall.

7-15 FPS (Ryzen 7 3700x, MSI RTX 3070 Ti, 64 GBs DDR4 memory)

Even if I set the screens to one frame per second, I get a lag spike every time they update... So I think the answer is that they all update at once.

It would be nice If we could have the cameras work on one monitor

yea

better than the actual wiremod RT screens because it doesn't darken the screens
MrCinnamon 18 Dec, 2022 @ 12:04pm 
this is great

Also, are there any console commands added with the addon?
Like maybe a "max screens" command?
Alexthefox133 16 Dec, 2022 @ 12:40pm 
It shows the directory for how to get to the addon's files, but if I copy and pasted the directory, it'd be incorrect.
Why? I keep my steam in "F:\Program Files", not "C:\Program Files (x86)", as I have an external, 1 terabyte hard disc drive due to steam collectively taking up over half of my PC's storage space.
(Don't ask me why it's "F:" instead of "D:", I don't know either.)
