Thread: Empire Low FPS on a Good PC

  1. #1

    Default Empire Low FPS on a Good PC

    I am getting sub-20 fps on Darthmod, especially with large armies. I use low textures and everything, but I still have low fps. Any suggestions?

    How many gamesaves, for every game, do you have in the C:\My Documents\Games\<game>\Saves folder?

    What i mean is that ETW doesn't use compressed gamesaves, so I think the FPS in-game reflects of how much free diskspace you have in the C:\ partition.

    Try doing what Leonardo says and dump some of your old saves, you could also try deleting the files within the fx_cache folder and opening up your preferences.empire_script.txt file that resides within your scripts folder and scroll to the bottom of that file until you reach a line that starts with number_of_threads and altering the number of thread to how many cores your Computer has, for example I have 6 cores so mine reads, as follows:
    number_of_threads 6; # number_of_threads <int>, Set the number of threads <= 0 - automatic, >0 = explicit number

    I'm looking to dump some saves but can't find ' Games' within the sequence C:\My Documents\Games\<game>\Saves folder

    My bad, it is my mistake.

    I forgot that CA doesn't use the same path as Bethesda does for storing gamesaves, instead look in this "C:\Users\Leonardo\AppData\Roaming\The Creative Assembly\Empire\save_games" path.
