Really bad performance

[jorgegomzar]

I wasn't sure to reopen the last issue or to create another one, but since it's a completely different problem I am creating a new one.

Got the game to work (thanks BTW), but for as many tweaks I try to apply it's never a comfortable gameplay. It's not "bad" as in "I cannot play like this", but almost every second the game lags a bit.

Using DXVK_HUD=true in the launch parameters I was able to take a screenshot of the problem:

Those periodic deltas mean that every second there is a drop in the framerate.

As well, when entering the game or going back to the menu this gets worse:

Until date, I've tried:

• Using the PULSE_LATENCY_MSEC param, (first I thought it was only affecting sound, so I referred to your solutions)
• Using -high -heapsize 8388608 params.
• Setting up GPU Mode to "Prefer maximum performance"

Setup information:

• Proton 4.15-GE-1
• Prefix contains: faudio, vcrun2015, dotnet48, d3dcompiler_47. Configured as winxp.
• Steam parameters: DXVK_HUD=full DXVK_FILTER_DEVICE_NAME="GeForce" PROTON_LOG=1 PULSE_LATENCY_MSEC=90 %command% -high -heapsize 8388608

Thanks

This looks like the dotnet lag that the patch is supposed to fix. Manually go into you Space Engineers installation directory ..../steamapps/common/SpaceEngineers/Bin64/ Open the SpaceEngineers.exe.config file and make sure <gcServer enabled="true" /> is somewhere below the <runtime> tag. If it is missing add it... You can read more here https://github.com/Linux74656/SpaceEngineersLinuxPatches#step-3

Surely the last time I checked the integrity of the game it was removed... Thank you, it works perfect now
