Stuttering, Small freezes and framerate Issues

[jens]

Great, thanks for the detailed tests! Gladly skip the files, as the less changes we have to make the less risk of creating new problems for others.

So based on the latest feedback, here is a new test, it has only the change of removing the map and sound changes, the config has been modified to follow your latest tests. So if you would please just do the test again following the same instructions that would be perfect. If you have any friend or someone you know that has not had any issues before, if you could ask them to test as well that would be helpful in making sure we are not creating a new problem for others.

(if you used stutter3 test, then you have to revert the changes done by it before testing this version)

New test:

How to test:

- Download file and unzip it. Then copy/move the contents of the folder
into the game directory. If you do this correct Windows will prompt you
to overwrite and merge files and folders. Do this (but warning that you
will destroy your regular install and will have to redownload if you
want it back later.). You can find the location of the game folder in
Steam by right-clicking on the game, properties, last tab and click
browse local game files.

- You now have to delete the file My
Documents/Amnesia/Pig/main_settings.cfg. The game will create a new one
with the new settings.

- Launch the game using the launcher, use the settings as detected and
do not tweak them. That is use low, medium or high as suitable for your
setup.

- Start a new game and see how it works. If you have stutter, try
running the game without vsync (make sure it is not forced in control
panel for graphics card) and see if that makes a difference.

When reporting back, please include your system specification with:

OS, Graphics Card, CPU & RAM. Also say what settings you used in the launcher (low, medium or high).
