DRASTIC FPS DROPS
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

I use a2port script porting A2 CO units into A3 and it cause huge FPS drops.
At very first of when mission is starting theres around 25-30 FPS, after few minutes it drops to around 20 and while after it leave us with unplayable 4 FPS.

I know this could happen because of the script itself and that im using some amount of mods from A2 that aren't optimized for A3 - just wanted to share with You some info that could help with incoming A3 builds.

To check mission details etc. look into Additional Information below.

maybe you should try it out without porting things from the other armas, if this is because of the content of other games BIS has no need to fix it

BIS has no need to fix this as well as have no need to develop ArmA 3. Look - I didn't posted this because I want it to get fixed NOW. As I stated before:

"I know this could happen because of the script itself and that im using some amount of mods from A2 that aren't optimized for A3 - just wanted to share with You some info that could help with incoming A3 builds."

I think it can be useful information for them, as well as it could help handle fps drops in the future A3 build.

Edit: Thx for vote down that's what I needed.
