Tilburg E CP rubble frame loss

[kylomylo]

I have an old GTS 8800 (latest drivers) and a minimum spec comp to go along with it, and can pull around 30-40 FPS in most situations, except perhaps large inf fights with corpses.

I did get massive slowdowns in Tilburg around the E CPs area, which was caused either by one of the destroyed buildings or smoke it was giving off. My FPS would insta-drop from 30 to 1, and then back to 30 the second I got the rubble out of view.

The area in question is around the eastern most CPs in Tilburg, right next to the road into town (I'd hazard a guess it's the ruins on the right hand side when looking into town / towards main street).

Wish you could give me mre info (lat/long?). I'm walking all over destroyed Tilburg east and not seeing any big fps hits (60-90).

Also not seeing any smoke so wondering if we have different settings.

Turned on quality settings, have smoke but not seeing killer rubble. Will keep looking for a few.

I think the smoke hes talking about is under the 'combat smoke' setting

This building was destroyed and giving off smoke. The moment it got out of my view, FPS went back to normal. I was in a 232 at the time and there were smoke grenades going off which did not give me a significant loss in FPS. Only this spot did.

Weird. I have same card and a lot more resolution and I am not getting the 1fps issue here.

I'd just play with combat smoke off.
