this musst be an joke ..... i hope ...
sure ... i can get nice performance if i get back to C64 GFX .....
but we are 2023 ....
DW2 have 2005 top GFX in 2023 and the only solution you have, is to make it even worse ...

I would say the better path would be to optimize the engine (or select ...

Played around today with 1.1.0.9 and 1.1.1.1 trying to see if there is any difference and I can get both versions to use a lot of GPU by zooming around the nebulas. Started a fresh save in 1.1.0.9 and recorded it with MSI Afterburner reporting GPU usage, GPU temp and FPS. Loaded the same save in 1.1 ...

I have just rolled 1.1.1.1 back to Aurora in my newly started Aurora game, since my GPU started throttling up and getting 80-90% usage and temps above 80 degrees C. Not really sure why it started, but I'm back to Aurora and the GPU is back to normal.

I rolled my version back to 1.0.1.6 through Steam, deleted the two config files and made sure my Nividia profile was removed. It seems that it runs at around the 60 fps since the temperature and load is low. Changing the hz to @144 did nothing, but its hard to test w/o some kind of fps counter ...

And continuing my game with the FPS locked to 60 gives me smooth scrolling of the map and GPU usage around 45% and a temperatur around 53 degrees C.

I removed the Control Panel entry and is back to the above settings playing the game.

Zooming in gives my a FPS at 282,93, 95% GPU usage and temp risen from around 50 degrees C to around 80 degrees C. My cpu fans start spinning and a high pitched sound is heard from my pc. I'm not really sure if ...

Hi Erik

I had it set to 60Hz and it seemed that it respected it since my card was "silent". I normally check my fps using Geforce Experience but its seems that DW2 doesn't report correctly to it, so I'm unsure what fps really was.

After I reported this, I have added DW2 to the Nivida Control Panel ...

Hi

It seems that the latest version do not respect the selected refresh rate set in the Settings. I have selected 60hz even though my screen takes up to 144hz (Gsync):

My ships just got the Skip Drive and then they made a sound when jumping

Sorry, my bad.

Here is my DxDiag: http://www.twins4ever.dk/DxDiag/DxDiag.txt

And I can add that my version is the Steam version running version: 1.0.1.4

Hi

Its a good day today since I have been looking so much forward to play DW2 and I truly enjoy the experience :)

But aren't there supposed to be some sounds like in the old one? I only have music and it sounds like the same track playing.

I have no Ship Travel Vectors even when set to all. Am I ...

Thanks for doing this!

The main folder is now graphics. Is that right, ie. not GraphicsAlt like 2.1? And the sub folders are nato?
