Fix subnautica lag

Other drive, including Subnautica. Now when playing the game still runs similarly to how it did before, with occasional stutter when changing between biomes or loading objects such as Wrecks. But I'm far happier with the improved performance it has now, since the game isn't being taxed as much by sharing the same HD.I've noticed having the game running on the same hard drive as my Windows 10 OS, I would lag out and the game would freeze up for short periods at times - presumably because the OS was accessing the drive for system operations or other actions while the game was also accessing the drive. Now that I have Subnautica on a different drive, it keeps the system HD free to do its thing which reduces the loadtime for the game and generally lets it run smoother. Your mileage may vary based on your system's specs of course, but it's worth a shot if you want to try another step before pulling the trigger on a SSD. 0x6A7232 US Join Date: 2016-10-06 Member: 222906Members The advice to purchase a SSD for smoother frame rates is, in my opinion, misleading. It's not so much the transfer of data from hard drive to memory that causes the lag, it's to do with RAM, processor and GPU. I have a SSD and normal HDD in my laptop and I find that Subnautica does not run noticeably different on either one.I inherited an older Windows 7 PC and took the hard drive from it (not a SSD by the way but it does run at 7200 RPM) and installed it in my gaming system. I formatted it and moved my games to this other drive, including Subnautica.

I agree about the solid state hard drive, and I plan on picking one up since this last update killed my FPS and object popping. I have confidence by the time the game reaches beta status it will function better. The devs have added a lot of features, and it probably needs a little cleaning up.

I moved my game to a new SSD, and it zero difference to load times or playability.

I was hoping the increased read and write would help with issues to some degree. I still need to upgrade however haha. cwolf50 Liberty Join Date: 2016-08-10 Member: 221162Members 0x6A7232 US Join Date: 2016-10-06 Member: 222906Members Ouch.GeneralOperating System Microsoft Windows 10 HomeCentral Processor Intel(R) Celeron(R) CPU N3060 @ 1.60GHzUser Name swagcGraphicsVideo Adapter Intel(R) HD GraphicsVideo Memory 1.0 GBScreen Resolution 1366 x 768StorageTotal Memory 3.9 GBFree Memory 2.1 GBTotal Hard disk 449.9 GBFree Hard disk 318.6 GB...

Lag Whales (Reefbacks, I call them lag whales since my FPS drops like crazy whenever they are around).I play on the lowest settings (Except Anti-Aliasing, and V-Sync) :Even with my specs:since that causes the least lag of course, but I still get it when moving at high speeds and it tries to render the area as I go along.Current Specs.Octo-Core 4.7Ghz16GB RAM120GB SSD1TB HHD4GB VRAM GPUHaven't tried moving it over to the SSD yet, but since it increased Skyrims load times on Ultra by about 1.5 seconds I'm sure the difference will be minuscule.Try moving it to SSD, if your hard disk is the bottleneck (loading new terrain from disk) it will help immensely. If it's your GPU or CPU that's the bottleneck, yeah, you won't notice except for load times. However, nothing's preventing you from moving it back to the HDD if that's the case. (I've seen both cases, some people the SSD helps a lot, some it has no effect, depends on the system and what they specific bottleneck is.)

Scary.) tommy21toes Subnautica Join Date: 2017-05-21 Member: 230666Members You won't be running the game well on that laptop. It's barely over the requirements for Minecraft. 0x6A7232 US Join Date: 2016-10-06 Member: 222906Members @Ragnos oddly enough, some report that increasing their detail settings actually helps. Worth a try, can't hurt as you can always change it back. Ragnos Join Date: 2017-05-29 Member: 230812Members @0x6A7232 I moved it to the SSD and put it on full max settings, and sure enough it barely lags. It stutters from time to time, but it works way better.
