Post: RE: Terrible framerate issues

I stopped playing when they became more prominent in Theda. Low fps in the room where you put the omni tool onto a terminal, the room is on the right and you have to smash a window to enter. Low fps a...

Tried the gog patch and the horrid frame rate remains. Dunno what more to say. Early adopters are always the biggest fans but seem to suffer most. I'm sure frictional are doing their best, perhaps gam...

Post: RE: Terrible framerate issues

I've got 16gb of ram, using a ssd, i7 at close to 4ghz. I play most games at 1440p 60fps though I do have to turn off things like ssao to keep 60fps on most modern games. With Soma I can't maintain 60...

Yeah, it's not even when a lot is going on in the game world, for example I only get a slight dip (maybe 5 frames) when I'm out in the huge ocean - this seems perfectly reasonable as it certainly look...

Post: RE: Terrible framerate issues

I'd confidently say this exact issue is down to the game and not my setup, could be the same with Xerenos. It could just be jarring with the recent Windows 10 drivers and/or needs more optimizing.

Dropping the resolution doesn't remove the dips unfortunately. Also my computer doesn't seem to be struggling or bottlenecking. I actually do get 60fps on all combination of settings but then it dips ...

Same problem with frame rate here. I have gtx 680, i7, 16gb ram - I can run and play most games on very high settings at 1080p (or mid-high at 1440p) but Soma seems to strain and struggle even at low ...

It's just a game about some naughty pigs. You play a man who tried to change the world for the better and then the pigs starting running a muck. They're the ones pulling the strings, the filthy swines...

Ok,the screen tearing is fixed (turn off the newly added "adaptive vsync" in options) and I have finished the game. I thought it was fantastic but the mild stuttering still occurs throughout. It's not...

My favourite part was seeing all the Pig-men in their cells. It was quite a sad scene (and funny when one slips over trying to run at you). After that the game was less intense for me... I was the rea...

Aside form the screen tearing (which doesn't happen in windowed mode) I have another issue - Stuttering. The game stutters just before a something happens and it's very annoying in a game like this -...

Can I set a specific framerate in the games config files? Something like.. Maxframes=60 I'm on a 27' iMac, the screen is 2560x1440, if that helps.
