Beach Memory leak?

[THX]

Not sure what the cause is, but noticed since the last couple patches the beach lags with short freezes and GPU use is excessive. Is anyone else getting this?

 

Specs. I7 5820k.

32 Gigs DDR 4 (high end Trident Z)

GTX970

Win 10

 

All graphics set to Extremely High - used to be fine.

Yeah i have noticed this too, my settings are only on medium but the lag and freezing make staying there unbearable. Didnt have this issue before.

[Aliviax]

yes happens to me also i notice that the freezes in beach stop if u set frame rate on 30 instead of 60 

[Senteria]

Same problem, i7 7700k have 100% on beach and 75+ temp on any graphics setting

And I thought I would be the only one with the problem.

But since the big patch with those 24 poses, I have those freeze frames every few seconds.

And it is not my PC.

 

My Specs:

i7-7700k

16GB DDR 4

GTX 1070

Win 10

 

And I only get those freeze frames on the beach. On every other room, no matter how much people are in there, everything is fine.

Same here for me and have heard the same from some others too.

 

Seems to be fairly independent of the used desktop hardware (eg GTX 970 / i5-2500, GTX1080 / i7-6700, etc) and independent of the Nvidia driver's version - the behaviour persists.

For some it seems to help to go down from 60 fps to 30 fps - but not a general rule either.

 

As it has been said its affecting the beach only - other rooms work flawlessly with up to 100+ fps - so I can't imagine it's an hardware performance issue...

 

Nevertheless I also heard from few sides that this doesn't happen on (some?) notebooks - and I can confirm that as well.

No lags on the notebook with Geforce 940M / i7-6500U.

Not the slightest idea how that fits together.

 

Would be glad though if this could be fixed as well... (besides other things like eg. the sorting of the friends list, the memory leak (RAM)  etc ;-) )

 

Thanks a lot!

My laptop with GTX 860M works fine  but my desktop with a GTX 970 is awful and turning the frame rate down and reducing the graphics quality makes very little difference 

[Aliviax]

something weird with the beach thats all all other rooms framerates are ok 

so to not have that freezing on the beach u have to set 30 fps only on 60 fps freezes 

[Cyra]

Noticed it too before I quit. Seems to also have to do something with the grass. Reducing the setting for it to medium or lower helps too.

[THX]

I never thought going to 30 from 60 FPS would make an impact... but it does. All my settings remain on Extremely High and that little stutter I was getting (and others seem to have also) has reduced. However, there is still something wrong as all my setting have remained as they were for over a year and not changed. Only the game did.

 

Hope this helps in isolating the issue.

me too extreme settings 30 fps no problem 

i tried vsync but not working 

hope gizmo fix it soon 

[Charlyne]

Happens here too,

 

after a long time, back at Beach. It feels like every 5seconds whole game stands still.

Is the only Room where i had this issue.

you need a new pc ..i have no probs ,,extremly hig and 60fps ..no lags..  

[☙𝔼𝕩❧]

Your specs?

[Robi]

Your specs?

 

 AMD Ryzen 7 2700X Prozessor (3,7 GHz)

 NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2070 

 32 GB DDR4-3000

 250 GB M.2 SSD

 Win10 Pro 64-Bit

That`s nice specs:)

3dx can be runned on lower PCs and 970 GTX is enough in my opinion. So, looks like the beach has some problems.

yes ofc...i play 3dx with my laptop too with lower specs...AMD A.8 7100 /AMD Radeon R7 M265 2GB / 8GB Ram DDR3

Yes a GTX 970 is more than enough.  If I was to upgrade today, i'd go with a 1070 gigabyte and save the $200. 6% speed improvement for  200 bucks isn't worth it IMO.

 

The change has been in 3DX. Perhaps the beach specifically - I dunno. But for many it seems to be the beach specifically and everywhere else is fine.

Most of my friends have the same issue with this location. 

ps: maybe it is duplicates lol   jj

[Aliviax]

you need a new pc ..i have no probs ,,extremly hig and 60fps ..no lags..  

i have i7 6700k

gtx strix 1070 8gb

its not the specks 

its the beach 

and i dont lag i get freezes cause of something gone bad after patch 

i can run 3 x 3dx clients same time on extreme alright

I can go there with extremely high setting and experimental water...without any problem. I don't have a brand new computer but a 6-7 years computer. The game differently behaves depending on your computer. The memory leak is a fact in the whole game. But at the beach, there are too many standing still statues at the entrance...When your computer has to deal with too many avi...it may freeze depending on its architecture. Computer are not a matter of how big they are but how good they are build.

[Serendipity]

I used to go to the beach in extreme settings without any issues but since last couple of updates, need to set 30 fps.

My PC hasn't changed so I guess it's updates related.

This might be true if the problem existed consistently,  but it has only begun recently - at least on my end. It was fine prior recent patches. I think it is logical to deduce that since so many have similar issues something indeed is different.  

 

I dunno what the reason is, but it is a recent development.

Sorry, but your argument is not right in this case. Of course you are right in the most cases. A computer's stability and work performence depends on how good the single components works together.

But, at least for me, I was able to have the beach on maximum settings and in window mode aswell without any freeze frames.

And as you are familiar with computers, you may know, that a game in window mode always stresses the computer more.

 

But since that big patch, I have those freeze frames. But only on the beach, no matter how many people are there. (fullscreen mode)

On the other side, I can still visit big rooms, lights are placed everywhere and 100+ people dancing, standing, fucking without any freezeframe or lag.

 

This has nothing to do with the computer you have. There is somewith wrong with the game. Because, as said, everyone who has the problem now, didn't have that before the patch.

[MeiLing]

I was trying to point out that's not only a matter of components, some began the typical male game mine is bigger than yours....

There has always been a problem with the memory leak, and the new beach has often been mentioned as a computer killer, even if I never had problem there when my computer was freezing at the Sin - I have never been able to figure out why. 

So you are partially right. There is a problem with the code and different computers deal with this in a different way. (btw when I have mentioned the problem of memory leak, some told me to buy a new computer...). 

I guess that Gizmo should work on this memory leak. it affects all the rooms (it is the reason why computer crashed when a room has been open for a long time).
