Not sure what to do, KSP just runs horrible on minimum settings.

[japoop888]

My system specs are over the minimum requirements and the game runs on 7fps no matter what. I make a slightly large rocket and even on lowest settings it runs on 7fps. I am starting to be fed up with KSP2 and am not sure what to do. I have over 2 hours of playtime so I cant refund it and am looking for help on how to fix my game. (I have a 4k monitor and have tried running it in 1080p and it still is 7fps)

Anything helps. Thanks.

Pretty much what happens when I launch a mid sized rocket.

Can you post your system specs?  And perhaps an image of the craft?

[japoop888]

System specs are a 3070 and Ryzen 5 5600x. 16gb of ram, 3600 cl18.

 

will get an image of the craft in a few days unable to do it now.

@japoop888 There have been a few developer posts about upcoming optimizations dealing specifically with graphics. I, too, am hoping this resolves my issues. Right now, at launch, even a moderately sized rocket gets me about 5 FPS unless I change the camera angle to look away from the surface of Kerbin, then I can approach 15 FPS. But as soon as I point the camera anywhere towards the surface, it drops significantly (to the speed of a PowerPoint presentation).

The most current Developer Insight deals a lot with the future of graphics optimization plans:

@adsii1970 I read the article you  attached. I’m just annoyed because my specs are over the minimum and even on low settings it still is 5 fps. I also have performance issues when I’m in the VAB. When I select a part the game freezes for 1 second then the part renders. Another thing which may help to solve the problem is that when I pause the game it runs smoothly on 60 fps. I can look around when the game is paused and it stays stable on 60 fps. It’s only when I unpause the game it drops to 7 fps instantly. Hopefully the graphics packs are fixed soon.

My experience varies. When on Kerbin or Minmus things are relatively smooth, but landing on the Mun dropped to 1 frame per 2 seconds for some reason.

I got the same problem. You have a radeon 580 too? I think the same occurs on 570s
