I followed everything in the video and it helped a lot. But I'm also crashing to desktop every time I play now. I have 32 Gig of RAM and I play at 1080. My GPU is a 3070 and CPU is a Ryzen 7 5800x. I don't know what could be causing it. If anyone has similar problems and finds a fix, please let me know.
As of the 3.23.2, can confirm, this BOOSTS the hell out of FPS . I'm on Windows 11, was getting stuttering on overclocked i7-12700kf to 5.0ghz , 64gb ram, AMD 6750 XT 12gb and this fixed it :)
What can I do be able to watch youtube videos while playing? If star citizen is running it will buffer for 2 seconds every 1 second on any video. Is this related to the CPU priority? Should I move the priority down by 1 or what? I might only need to look a YT video about how to do something in game every now and then, anything else can wait until I am not playing.
Great video! Any updates for this video yet? For some reason, I cannot find my background apps settings at all in windows anymore, and I cannot disable Xbox Game Bar. Furthermore, any tips or changes for folks running a Ryzen 7800x3D?
After following this guide I started getting game crashes constantly. Look at the game logs and it said a SYSMEM error, couldn't allocate 2MB. Which is funny, because I have 32GB RAM and the game is barely using 16GB. Anyhow, had to return the Pagefile size back to "Managed by system" and the crashes have stopped. Also, looking at what size of pagefile the system is using atm while the game is running and a couple of background apps, it's almost 14GB. So, willingly limiting the pagefile to just 12GB is a bad idea. At least for Windows 11.
Dude, this was so incredibly helpful! I just DLed SC 3 days ago and was starting to crash to desktop every time I tried landing at Lorville. I don't know if this if an ultimate solution but I could tell my 1st Launch after restart that the load-in screen chaser was flying back and forth far quicker than ever before. Such an in-depth guide that was far beyond my scope of knowledge and so easy to follow along with in almost real-time. Great work my friend. Thank you so much. 👍
I don't think all GPU's support it because I've come across this before with people too, usually in laptops though. Just make sure you're on latest drivers, if it doesn't pop up, you just can't do that specific part 🤷♂️
that has nothing to do with anything in this video. That means your account is corrupt, an cant retrieve data from the CIG servers. Most of us have had that bug at one point this patch so far. It took me 3 weeks for them to fix it for my account.
Game keeps crashing since 3.18 ? I noticed it only happens when i increased Windows Page File Size to 10-12k, instead i did 12-20k. No Crash. (Got 16gb 3600 mhz CL16 RAM) Just dont use chrome or anything else that eats ram. And u wont crash. At least for me. // edit, i didnt do the regedit's tbh, worked fine in 3.17.X. IDK about the regedits in 3.18.
You really need to upgrade your memory to 32gb for StarCitizen, the fact the page file is being used means you're out of memory. the game can use a lot more than 16gb. You'd get much better frame rates with 32.
@@VelvetDiamond Yea i know mate. Just upgraded my gpu from a RX 580 4gb to an RX 6600 xt 8gb for this game. Frames are actually "good" compared to before the upgrade.
Its because 10-12k is lower than what Windows would automatically assign, and that makes it unplayable with 16gb ram as you will only have 16+12gb total physical\virtual ram available instead of the 16+16gb you would have if you kept it at auto. And as you probably know, SC uses around 24-26gb alone, which would make you go above the cap with windows+background apps running. And that makes SC crash. If you set it to 16000-32000, it would be fine with 16gb.
I did this.. and it did make my game smoother but also crash the game immediately after entering the world. I'll try to reconfigure it again and see how it goes.
Yes me too! Even after I rolled back the changes. These are my specs. Intel Core i5 12600KF 10 Core, Intel Z690 Chipset, GeForce RTX 3070 8GB, 16GB 3200MHz RAM I've seen a reply on this video that you really need to go to 32gb ram and expect crashes if your on 16. So going to 32gb is my plan.
Question: Adding that StarCitizen.exe to the registry, what does that CpuPriorityClass actually do? Reason I'm asking is for some reason now in 3.18 I'm having alot higher Cpu usage and lower Gpu usage in 1440p high settings with i5-10600k and Asus Tuf RTX 3070ti and 32gb ram. This wasn't the case in 3.17. Would adding this make SC use more of my GPU? Btw, have done most of the stuff in this video and has made the game ton smoother. Maybe in your next guide for this, you could explain more of what things do in the Registry. Anyway, thanks for the guide, it's a great one.
Frame rate is higher than ever though I have noticed a large increase in stuttering and hitching, as well as massive frame drops from things as small as turning around or looking to my side
Dude. I don't have the words to describe my gratitude. I'm running an i7 1100k and somehow fit a 3090 in my rig. For the past few months, I've been cringing at my monitor when playing this game. Upon booting up every day, It would take a good 3-5 minutes to stop violently stuttering. I'd only ever achieve 29fps on loaded areas and at all times stuttering followed me. Duuuuude. A Million Thank Yous. You didn't just fix my game, it's more like it was just perfectly optimized for my rig! It's an insanely different experience. I can fly in from space (100fps+) down to a starter city with 0 stuttering. 0! It smoothly loads things in and steadily FPS does decline but you don't notice! It's incredible. Did I mention when I boot the game I can just press y to get out of bed and instantly enjoy the game? No more crazy lag or unholy stutters and so on. One more Thank You! You really have transformed my experience on SC and I'm very greatful. I've subscribed to your yt to hopefully pay you back somehow.
Great Video Thank You "Also the Edit powewr plan skip that part" Do this instead. To enable Ultimate Performance mode in Windows 10, follow these steps: Search for Command Prompt in the Start menu. Right-click the Command Prompt result. Choose “Run As Administrator.” In Command Prompt window, type the following command: powercfg -duplicatescheme e9a42b02-d5df-448d-aa00-03f14749eb61 Press Enter. Reboot the system. Open Settings and navigate to System > Power & sleep > Additional Power Settings. Under ‘Choose or customize a power plan’, select ‘Ultimate Performance’.
