Larian Studios Forums Dragon Commander Dragon Commander - Technical Problems Strategic Map Frame-rate

Hi there,
I'm currently having issues with the frame rate on the strategic map in dragon commander. The combat stage runs at 60fps on ultra for me (with AO turned off) however the strategic map chugs between 20-40fps with v-sync on and is only marginally better with it off. I'm running the game on a Radon HD7850 with and overclocked i5-2500k at 4.5Ghz. I've never experienced problem like this with graphically intensive game like Witcher 2 or Battle Field 3 so it seems odd I'm having these issues with a map screen.

Do you have Anti-Aliasing forced in your driver settings, or a dual core CPU?

Strategic Map Causing Lag

Still no fix for that? I was hope it was fixed in last patch 1.20

The fix may have been included in the 1.20 patch (are you still having this issue?), but it is not specifically listed in either the 118 or 120 changelists. In any case, there should be another update tomorrow.

Hope this update will fix the issue. For dual core CPU it's still not fixed yet =(

As I said I'm running on an i5 so it's not a dual core and my Catalyst Control Center is running AA on "use application settings" so it's not being forced. I saw the topic linked but figured my issues was a different one, also unlike the people in that thread my issues don't start on chapter 2 but on chapter one. On the first strat map I notice a significant hit to the frame-rate.

Edit: Also I just attempted to play with AA turned off and it seemed to have no affect on my frame-rate issues.

Oops, I read right over that.

No worries.
