Are you using High FPS Support to go above 60 fps?
other-emerald
other-emeraldOP•10mo ago

Michaelsoftman
Michaelsoftman•10mo ago

i get more fps in cyberpunk than terraria my game also randomly crashes when its like rebuilding when i change my mods but besides having to relaunch it seems fine might as well drop all the logs
Michaelsoftman
Michaelsoftman•10mo ago
The only errors I see are Gravity Doesn't Flip Screen conflicting with high FPS support
other-emerald
other-emeraldOP•10mo ago
so why is my framerate low
Michaelsoftman
Michaelsoftman•10mo ago
It's something you can't really do much about, poorly coded mods lol Only choice is to start disabling things
other-emerald
other-emeraldOP•10mo ago
do u know which mods are poorly coded?
Michaelsoftman
Michaelsoftman•10mo ago
Based on what you are using, I'd disable any mods that deal with Lighting effects and see if that makes a difference Also Infernum is the content mod that will tank your FPS the most
other-emerald
other-emeraldOP•10mo ago
noooooo i really liked infernum
Michaelsoftman
Michaelsoftman•10mo ago
It's just not FPS friendly You could always play the game windowed and reduce the window size

other-emeraldOP•10mo ago
terraria is only using 40% of my gpu
other-emerald
other-emeraldOP•10mo ago
also my underground backgrounds are flickering this green mossy texture

Some type of lighting error I guess Also the game is more CPU bound, it is single threaded and can only use 1 core
other-emerald
other-emeraldOP•10mo ago
yea i have a Ryzen 7 5800x3d i should have pretty decent single core performance
Michaelsoftman
Michaelsoftman•10mo ago
How much FPS do you get with no mods enabled except high FPS support?
other-emerald
other-emeraldOP•10mo ago
idk lemme test it lol 500 if i click off it drops to 325
other-emerald
other-emeraldOP•10mo ago

i disabled infernum and didnt see a performance change i played it before and the only time i noticed it being coded poorly was when DOG was shooting 10 billion projectiles and my game was running in slow motion i disabled both my lighting mods and my fps went up by like 10 :/

Complaining about 60fps sickens me
other-emerald
other-emeraldOP•10mo ago
i get like 2 in the devourer of gods fight
xenial-black
xenial-black•10mo ago
That's reasonable to complain about But that's partly also just what the devourer of gods does
other-emerald
other-emeraldOP•10mo ago
uh no he isnt supposed to make ur game run in slow motion
Michaelsoftman
Michaelsoftman•10mo ago
He does that to everyone with Infernum
xenial-black
xenial-black•10mo ago
I've never fought him ever without that happening
other-emerald
other-emeraldOP•10mo ago
really???
xenial-black
xenial-black•10mo ago
Yeah
other-emerald
other-emeraldOP•10mo ago
what a terribly designed fight
xenial-black
xenial-black•10mo ago
My most recent playthrough is tanking like hell though and I'm still in prehardmode I don't think tmod likes my 10 big content mods
other-emerald
other-emeraldOP•10mo ago
either way i still want more fps when nothing is happening i havent even killed a boss yet and i onl have 60-80 fps
xenial-black
xenial-black•10mo ago
60fps is not something to only about everything further is an indulgence and a bonus
other-emerald
other-emeraldOP•10mo ago
uh no
xenial-black
xenial-black•10mo ago
My pc is not terrible and I have 20fps max
other-emerald
other-emeraldOP•10mo ago
my pc isnt terrible either i should be getting atleast 200 fps without nitrate i get the same fps as i do in skyrim with 1800 mods
xenial-black
xenial-black•10mo ago
But without nitrate i get like 40 fps
What I would give for 40fps
Michaelsoftman
Michaelsoftman•10mo ago
Are you on a large world by chance?
xenial-black
xenial-black•10mo ago
Yeah
Michaelsoftman
Michaelsoftman•10mo ago
Try a smaller size world, IIRC the biggest cause of lag is due to Terraria processing so much world data every tick
xenial-black
xenial-black•10mo ago
Damn
other-emerald
other-emeraldOP•10mo ago
Im on large
Michaelsoftman
Michaelsoftman•10mo ago
Try small or med and see if there is an improvement
other-emerald
other-emeraldOP•10mo ago
But on the same world when i remove all my mods i get 300-500 :noway:

I was following this thread to see how it would play out, cuz i'm also having FPS issues, but apparently it is out of our control 😦 I remember playing heavily modded playthroughs in the old 1.3 64bits tmodloader, and i would get constant 60fps in every scenario with a GTX 660, core i5,12gb RAM. Now in 1.4 i can't get stable FPS with RTX 3080, Core i7, 32GB. 💀 Crazy how Terraria mods evolved... But yeah, it is probably Infernum. I messed up with every single one of the 84 mods i'm using. And the one that alleviated the framerate was Infernum when turned off.

ima just turn off my 2 lighting mods and suffer with the 70-90 fps and probably like 50 fps boss fights
