Permanent lagging regardless of resolution Thread - Gothic 2 - Requiem mod for Gothic II - The Night of the Raven

Hi, I think that people already encountered with this problem and maybe it was solved, but can someone give any suggestions, because it is very frustrating to fight with that lag...

edit: Disabling ambient fx worked wonders, back to 60 fps!

edit: Lagging still persists, when lockpicking, for instance, every time I press the left or right button to pick the lock, fps drops to around 40 for a few milliseconds (which makes it really hard to "get on beat"). In the city, for example, fps is merely around 30 all the time and at midnight, if I am inside the city, I get access violation error. I don't know, what causes the lagging, but for sure my computer starts overburning when playing G2 with this mod.

did you try playing with dx11 mod?

Yeah, I tried to, but just before game started, had to discover that my NVIDIA Quadro FX 880 graphics card cannot support it. Pity... Why do you ask? Might moving the dx11 mod.zip files to my G2 system folder contributed to fallibility of the game (I just deleted them after it was unable to start)?

it usually improves performance on newer systems

you can try

zTexCacheOutTimeMSec=0
zTexCacheSizeMaxBytes=0
zSndCacheOutTimeMSec=0
zSndCacheSizeMaxBytes=0

or increasing the MaxBytes above the default

not sure if changing the TimeMSec helps at all or changes it for worse

Thanks for a tip! But the comment below the lines you advised to modify in gothic.ini file states that the greater values, better the performance. Or does 0 count for a max value?

im no expert but i think that 0 chooses a value based on your pc specs (could be completely wrong here)

im going to try to test how changing stuff effects performance when the next version comes out since on my laptop the game is not running great i know how to disable alot of the grass but i dont think it helps inside town
