Thanks for having a look at it in any chase =)

Yeah in my testing I can see the framerate dropping by as much as 10% from opening/interacting with some UI elements, but it's not the same issue that this mod addressed.

Using the original methodology and tools, while monitoring the Warhammer3.exe I do not see the game paging the same resources in non-existent directories as I did in the pre-1.3 version of the game. There may be some other optimization issue at play, but I don't currently have the tools, skills, or knowledge to diagnose or "fix" it.

its probably not the exact same bug no (i hope not CA) but just try and opening and closing building menu on campaign map while pressing a and d on the keyboard and you will see the game freeze for 1 second. feels very similar to what was broken before

Daaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaamn, glad to help. And nice come up too ! wish I had a RTX 4070 Ti!
Rziha Apr 16, 2023 @ 7:14pm 
Spartan VI I love you so much dude. Last year I had an 10 years old computer and your mod allowed me into playing this game.

Now I have an 4070 ti but I still remember where I came from.. I will forever honor you
Spartan VI  [author] Apr 16, 2023 @ 7:12pm 
I know you are, but what am I!
Rziha Apr 16, 2023 @ 7:11pm 
@Spartan VI hiello there handsome
Spartan VI  [author] Apr 16, 2023 @ 7:09pm 
I doubt they re-introduced the same exact "bug" but I'll take a look once this patch downloads.
Astroice Apr 15, 2023 @ 8:54pm 
They broke it again.... please update lol
Rziha Apr 13, 2023 @ 6:52pm 
I will download your mod and I don`t care about what you say about it. Also favorited and will tip into tip jar if thats not enough
Spartan VI  [author] Aug 27, 2022 @ 8:54am 
Not possible. Placebo effect. This mod is an empty file.
Space Buddha Aug 27, 2022 @ 3:51am 
This mod is relevant again i had huge lags on all menus on my nurgle immortal empires campaing and this mod fixed it!
Spartan VI  [author] Aug 23, 2022 @ 10:07pm 
No reason to come back since they've fixed the issue in patch 1.3 for WH3. They still need to fix it in WH2, WH1, 3K, Troy, and Rome 2.
ItsDaKoolaidDude Aug 23, 2022 @ 9:42pm 
A favorite mod during Warhammer 2, though I wonder if it'll come back

ths loveyou!:steamhappy:

@Stealther: Yes, we can delete / unlist workshop files, which I'll do before Immortal Empires / Champions of Chaos goes live.

The reason I've not done that yet is because subscribers who have campaign saves while using this mod may run into issues loading their Realms of Chaos campaign saves if this mod is suddenly deleted, which I've 100% seen happen with other mods in the past. I just don't want to be blamed for nuking people's saves. By the time IE/CoC drop, I expect most players wont even bother with Realms of Chaos anymore, so fair warning to everyone. :D:
lStealtherl Aug 20, 2022 @ 2:34pm 
Honest question, I have no knowledge regarding workshop scene, and you probably would have if able to. You can't delete the mod from workshop list?
Spartan VI  [author] Aug 18, 2022 @ 6:42am 
It's an empty file, so it won't do anything. :D:
Faceroller Aug 18, 2022 @ 6:13am 
I'm gettin 10 FPS on my 3070 and 54 on my 1080ti,,as of today (1.3). So their fix did nothing for me, I'm gonna try your mod even if obsolete.
Gozdinho777 Aug 16, 2022 @ 4:01am

Dont tell me what to do:lunar2019scowlingpig:
SelinaGoth_AI Aug 2, 2022 @ 10:54am 
damn it drops to 10 fps if you move quickly above them every single time! what you explain is wh2 behavior which is as i said before works as intented. i hate this games engine graphic bugs, high gpu heats, ui bs...
Spartan VI  [author] Aug 2, 2022 @ 9:33am 
The first time you do it, it may stutter as the game loads those assets, but it shouldn't happen repeatedly like it used to pre-patch 1.3. Post patch, I haven't been able to recreate a persistent stutter when mousing over building icons or other UI assets.
SelinaGoth_AI Aug 1, 2022 @ 2:24am 
is there a trick or a way to lessen impact of event messages or building slots? when you move your mouse over them it cause massive fps drop. In WH2 it works perfectly.
Spartan VI  [author] Jul 31, 2022 @ 6:16pm 
The mod is an empty pack file. It won't do anything because the fix is already implemented in patch 1.3.
Cripple Jul 31, 2022 @ 6:09pm 
I decided to give 1.3 a go and its unplayable now with a 5800x 32gb ram and 3070, 1.0 1.1 and 1.2 ran fine and 1.3 is now stuttering as if im only getting 5 fps. Gave this fix a go and its still the same hmmm. I only run 1 button respec and no chaos portals.
Spartan VI  [author] Jul 31, 2022 @ 10:35am 
New subscribers should not load this mod. It's basically an empty pack file, only here for compatibility with existing pre-1.3 patch saves.
Gansinho Jul 31, 2022 @ 8:39am 
@Guvenoren I think yes, he said in FAQ number 1
Guvenoren Jul 31, 2022 @ 6:48am 
So this mod is obsolete?
Wolfy Jul 25, 2022 @ 6:52am 
Upvoted just because of the mod image.
Driesmann Jul 21, 2022 @ 1:33am 
Unfortunate but expected, one could hope lol.
Spartan VI  [author] Jul 20, 2022 @ 4:24pm 
No, they're most likely different file names so even if it did work, it would load WH3 icons and look really strange.
Driesmann Jul 20, 2022 @ 11:51am 
Hi, would this mod work with Troy by just copying it to the mod folder there? It suffers from the same issue.
Trepen0004 Jul 13, 2022 @ 5:07am 
Only just got WH3 and also noticed that when I did a benchmark with around 8 mods installed it absolutely destroyed my FPS, and when I ran it with no mods it was all good again. Glad I found this information here as I was going nuts trying to figure out what was going on.
Spartan VI  [author] Jul 7, 2022 @ 8:55pm 
@Runix, yeah we had a working session on that issue in the Modding Den where I did a number of tests and the solution posted to reddit was the outcome of our testing. The solution is to copy the pack files from your \Steam\steamapps\workshop\content\1142710\ folder to your \Warhammer 3\data\ folder. This comes with risks of course since they'll no longer be linked to the workshop and wont get updates. You'll need to manually clean these pack files up when the issue is patched.

There's an issue with the virtual file system that's mitigated by having your pack files directly in the local warhammer 3 data folder instead of the workshop folders. Was able to replicate the performance hit simply by using empty mods loaded to the workshop, where I measured a 50% reduction in framerate simply by using 30 empty workshop mods.
Runix Jul 7, 2022 @ 7:41pm 
There's a new bug that got added with the most recent hotfix that really hurts performance depending on number of mods loaded. See the discussion on reddit for details. There was a question of if this mod will fix it, but it sounds like it won't. Just FYI. Hopefully the hotfix will get hotfixed soon . . .
Spartan VI  [author] Jul 6, 2022 @ 6:15pm 
Yes, they "fixed" the asset loading issue so that the game will cache that it searched and not spam asset searches repeatedly and forever.
darksend Jul 6, 2022 @ 5:53pm 
are we sure this isn't needed anymore? 1.3 DESTROYED! my performance, worst it's ever been in this game.
Spartan VI  [author] Jul 3, 2022 @ 9:31am 
I'm not sure if we can unpack the audio files, but we may be able to use dummy files and create those folder structures to see if that improves performance.
Trubble Jul 3, 2022 @ 9:28am 
To me it looks like the same issue now exists with audio files. When I run process monitor it shows a ton of audio files that it cannot find in the mods folders before finding it in the pack file. And there are a LOT of audio files...
Spartan VI  [author] Jul 2, 2022 @ 6:36pm 
Blessed by the horned rat, yes yes!
