Re: [2.0.7] Frequent FPS slowdowns during gameplay (Apple Silicon)

M1 Air with 8GB of memory; I do have an M4 Pro binned cpu with 24GB of memory coming soon though 😎.

2.0.21 has had a massive performance improvement if I turn "render in native resolution" back on. I get up to ~55FPS if I disable "Occlude light sprites" graphics option to switch back to 1.1 light ...

Re: [2.0.7] Frequent FPS slowdowns during gameplay

The person in charge of the Mac build said earlier in this thread that he is out sick and will deal with this when he feels better.

Re: [2.0.7] Frequent FPS slowdowns during gameplay

It feels to me that it is an external monitor issue, on my M1 8GB MBA running on the internal screen is fine at native resolution. On 2.0.8 running on the external monitor at native resolution is no longer getting close to the same performance as 1.1.110

Re: [2.0.7] Frequent FPS slowdowns during gameplay


Dropping bellow 60 FPS, or stuttering sucks 😟

For macOS players, I recommend to disable "Render in native resolution" in graphics settings, if you run into FPS issues.

Space Age has lot more complicated rendering to compose all the sprites and shader effects in somewhat acceptable way. We are ...

Performance in 2.0.8 is half of what I got in 1.1.0 on my M1 MacBook Air.

I believe this has something to do with the HiDPI changes, my M1 MacBook Air (MBA) has 8GB of Ram and an M1 processor. It is hooked up to a 4k monitor the game previously looked and ran at 60fps with render at native resolution and only started to dip into the 50's when my base got large. Now on a ...

Re: [1.1.107] "Could not establish network communication with server."

If anyone runs into this in the future I had to disable the firewall and then reboot the modem. Just disabling the firewall did not work make sure you reboot the ONT/Modem.

I then turned-on security with the plume wifi pods they provide.

[1.1.107] "Could not establish network communication with server."

Recently when I try connecting to multiplayer servers every single one I cannot connect too. I do not know if the problem is with the game itself or my network. Is there a list somewhere of ports I need to try to forward or anything?

I am with Quantum Fiber and have the c5500xk modem with their ...

Re: Game Mode support for Apple Silicone

I would love this as well! Here is some more information: https://eclecticlight.co/2023/10/18/how ... u-and-gpu/ . Do you run the game through a standalone launcher or steam? I use the standalone launcher and do not get game mode.
