Weird Perfomance Issue(Sandbox 80 fps)(MainMap 10fps)

[Mzmonkey__]

I have weird performance problem.My laptop is newly bought is the spec is decent .My deadlock run at solid 60-80 fps in sandbox mode. But when in the main game or in the match the fps went down to a horrendous 10-20 fps with no sign of increasing. I tried using the best performance setting i can find but same result. also tried the private lobby the fps is still 10-20. My guess is something wrong with rendering the main map. will really appreciate any help or solution to this.really want to play the game

(also my old laptop(now broken) with worse spec used to be able to play deadlock normally just fine)

Hi, I'll try to help you. First of all, I need to know if you are playing on the built-in core and what settings have you already made in the game?

Your screenshot shows only the graphics core built into the processor. Such cores are not always able to draw you even 25 frames in games.

If you have a laptop, make sure that your processor does not overheat. After that, you can try to help you with your game at the expense of graphics, because the entire load will fall only on the processor, you should not count on a beautiful game.

If you can, tell me the brand of the laptop and its model, so you will need a screenshot from the task manager from the processor tab

Asus Vivobook 16 X1605ZA-MB774WF is the one i'm using​

If you can, tell me the brand of the laptop and its model, so you will need a screenshot from the task manager from the processor tab

Here is my screenshot of in-game setting and my tashmanager while currently in a privatelobby(20 fps)
the sandbox map is fine with 60+ fps and the waiting area before match is also 60+ fps
the temperature are of the processor is not displayed in the taskmanager but physically feeling with my hand i'm kinda sure it's not overheating

Try to write this in the startup parameters: -vulkan -noaafonts -limitvsconst +fps_max 0 -nojoy -softparticlesdefaultoff -high -preload -m_rawinput 1 -untrusted. Also, knowing the laptops of the Vivobook series, they are quite heated. You may need to think about cooling. Also, go to the folder with the game C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Deadlock\game\citadel\cfg the path will be something like this. In the Cfg folder, find the file with the name video.txt open it with notepad and just below I'll attach a file with the settings, you don't need to copy anything from there. Just compare it with yours and put it the way it is there. Also, your processor is multi-core, the game uses only 8 active cores and threads. I advise you, if possible, to disable additional non-productive processor cores in your BIOS. This can raise the FPS and reduce the heat. You can also find out how you can personally configure the built-in video chip on your laptop via the same BIOS.

Also, can I get a screenshot from the task manager in the CPU tab?:

If you also do not have a Windows swap file, I advise you to set it to 32768gb

 

[LIzZzz]

after all, you should have the approximate settings. I strongly advise you not to use FSR of any version. But simply lowering your basic scale. also, motion blur. Just what will help make the game smoother even with low fps. This blur is very well implemented in this game, which will give you even with 30 fps smoothness like at 60. Just try it.

following your insruction my sandbox fps rose to 100 - 120 fps but in the main map it's still not higher than 20 fps. and another thing that i noted that after playing the main map once the sandbox and the waiting area fps are slightly lower than when i never join the main map this also reset after rejoining the game

 

[LIzZzz]

you have a fairly busy system. If you set yourself Windows with fewer background tasks, then this can also help you to some extent. Also, have you already installed the swap file?

 

[LIzZzz]

после вашей установки мой fps в песочнице вырос до 100-120 кадров в секунду, но на основной карте он по-прежнему не превышает 20 кадров в секунду. и еще одна вещь, которую я отметил, что после игры на основной карте fps в песочнице и зоне ожидания немного ниже, чем когда я никогда не присоединялся к основной карте, это также сбрасывается после возвращения в игру

perhaps it's also about overheating. Since the main card consumes more resources than the sandbox, it can cause your device to overheat, which can reduce its performance. Regarding the heating, I have already said that disabling additional cores will help and you will probably have to think about buying a special laptop stand with active fans. So I will ask you to go into the power settings of your laptop and set these parameters. Sorry for the fact that my Windows is in Russian for earlier.

Also, try to fix your fps at the same amount as your monitor coverage.

 

[LIzZzz]

Also, use full-screen mode

 

[LIzZzz]

you can also remove -vulkan from the launch parameters and also check your fps

can u elaborate about the swap file i have no idea what is it

Go to your file explorer and right-click properties there. You will see a window about the SYSTEM. In it, go to the advanced system settings. There, select the speed item. choose everything as it stands with me.
