FreeWobat Posted May 30, 2013 Share Posted May 30, 2013 Hi everyone! I'm playing Warframe for a few weeks now and I simply love it! However I wonder if anyone might have some advice on how to fix my only problem which is a low FPS count. First things first: It NOT because my PC is too bad and seems to be Warframe related. My system: - Athlon II X4 640 (about 60-80% load when hosting) - 8 GB 1333 RAM (about 4,5 GB used) - GTX 580 (about 40-50% load on highest settings with PhysX) - Raid with about about 600mb/sec read My FPS drops when hosting especially when lots of enemies are spawned while none of my systems is fully loaded :| Other software like BF3 runns smooth on highest settings. It would be awesome if anyone knows how to work around this problem :) As well the crosshair is displayer wrong when using Nvidia vision... any known tweaks for this? (Sorry if this post is in the wrong topic; I still a forum newbie) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TehJumpingJawa Posted May 30, 2013 Share Posted May 30, 2013 Simple answer; don't host. Hosting is extremely demanding at the moment, and causes performance problems on all but the fastest of machines. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FreeWobat Posted May 30, 2013 Author Share Posted May 30, 2013 @TehJumpingJawaof course that is the easiest solution :) But as my systems doesn't get to it's limit when hosting I presume that the issue is software based and might hopefully be solvable in some way.

Your system *is* being taken to its limit. Warframe doesn't efficiently utilise multiple cores. So while your cpu might not be reaching 100% utilisation as a whole, one of its cores will be, thus bottlenecking everything else. The only solution is for DE to invest some time into optimising their game & engine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HailCreation Posted May 30, 2013 Share Posted May 30, 2013 Well the issue is software based, but it's in the game client's code. It's not something you can just fix. The way hosting works right now ends up being more intense on your system than it should be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The way hosting works right now ends up being more intense on your system than it should be. And it only gets worse for tower/void missions...

aim4it Posted May 31, 2013 Share Posted May 31, 2013 (edited) I got boost in performance by turning off color correction and local reflections. I can even host without game breaking lag now. Edited May 31, 2013 by aim4it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CeePee Posted May 31, 2013 Share Posted May 31, 2013 I got boost in performance by turning off color correction and local reflections. I can even host without game breaking lag now. Can't thank you enough, turning these two off gave me easily more than 50% more performance when hosting. Fps still drops significantly from being just a client (60 fps) to being a host (30 fps), but it's not the 10 fps it used to be :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
