ehm , button for “high” texture settings is grayed out together with high character textures… is this your magic fix? no seriously are you trying to scale the graphic this way?

“High-res character textures” is greyed out and unable to change(check or uncheck). Also, “Textures:” field is empty, making me be able select only medium and low.

What is the meaning of this anet?

This was intended…sort of. “High-res character textures” will no longer be available for low performance CPUs(most dual core) since it can be incredibly demanding on performance; on CPUs like these it will make the game unplayable. The grayed out texture quality bit was unintended and will be fixed.

This was a very minor part of the changes that went in, none of which I would qualify as “the magic fix”. As I mentioned it’s been incredibly difficult to ascertain what some of you are experiencing and thankfully our changes helped some of you, but for others it did not. We will keep working on it, chipping away at the issues we find.

Thanks all for your feedback and apologies for the hiccup. I will keep you posted if we find a smoking gun.

Thankyou very much for your time, i can understand what you mean by neglecting high quality textures to dual cores, but my dual core is a g3258 running @ 4.8GHz. maybe you should be able to give users like me, well aware they have a dual core, but a dual core that cannot be seriously stressed by gw2 to reenable the feature. maybe a command to add in the launcher shortcut? just thinking.
By the way, stuttering issue is less present in pve, but still present in WvW. i get solid 60 fps (obviously v-sync on. without i get 130-180) almost in all pve events at best appearance (35-45 at world bosses with 100+ ppl on screen) so the fixes you delivered are working quite good.
WvW is sadly still affected by the issue. in zerg fight, let’s say 30 vs 30 where i used to see 30-35 fps i’m still seeing 15-20 now.

thanks again for your work and your time

as you can read in the title, i also have “High-res character” grayed out. Is that an intended move trying to force scale down graphics for better fps experience ?

tried with borrowed hardware from friends of mine:
r9 290x
gtx 780ti
i7 4790k
g3258 @4.6
i5 4690k

tried all possible combinations “aka both gpus on each cpu” . nothing. and know what? intel hd4400 is good enough to play the game with SAME framerate at high settings, you’ll still get 10 fps in zergs, so why bother getting a pricey vga XD

Seriously, we need a fix. I totally stopped playing

Just curious to see the response here – is there any change in performance when playing in FullScreen mode? We’ve seen this issue occur mostly in “Windowed” and “FullScreen Windowed” and we’d like to see if you all experience any difference while playing in FullScreen mode.

Thanks again everyone!

no difference at all

Your location —- Italy
Time and date of incident —- I noticed this on 9/16
Game World —- Seafarer’s rest
WvW maps
Brief description of what you’re seeing —- game stutters like when cpu or vga overheat and throttle (but nothing of these is happening). I’m playing WvW mostly due to the tournament, and where i could see solid 30-35 FPS in high populated combats now i only see 10-15. I stopped running guild raids, being a commander is just impossible with 10 fps, and i cannot bring my people to death XD
My settings have always been the same : all maxed out except for culling. I used to be ok medium on character model limit and hightest on character model quality. now i’m trying on lowest for both and also disabled best texture filtering and high res characters, but I cannot even say for sure if I’m getting 1-3 fps more. Something else is not working as intended

solution is simple. you make the tickets you sent unspendable, and send right amount of new set of tickets to all players . only chance to do this is before people start spending tickets. please think fast about the solution

Aye agree, good idea. Give everyone 500 new tickets, and not less becouse the 1th placers wont be happy.

learn to read what people write. please

I have dyslexia, hard to learn then, missed out the right. Sorry it bothers you that much.

I was trying to suggest a way to fix it without giving people more tokens than they deserve (ie: sending rewards again, there are chances to make new mistakes).
Making the tokens unusable is the best and fastest fix atm i think (not introducing the vendor tomorrow would work too ofc).

Teleported out of Captain's Airship

arjov.8649

nah ok the reason is simple, i just figured it out. if you were left on the airship after logoff or server/overflow change, you could easily move your ticket to the bank and reach the airship with your other characters, and they want you to buy other tickets to do that

Gli Ahrimans sono una gilda piena di amici , non di numeri. La nostra è una comunità di persone con cui divertirsi la sera, con cui passare il tempo.

Quante gilde oramai contano centinaia di player con i quali, probabilmente ci si ritroverà a giocare solo un paio di volte nell’arco di settimane? Ecco noi abbiamo sempre evitato tutto ciò, e anche su GW2 i reclutamenti vengono aperti e chiusi dinamicamente, in modo da avere sempre ricambio, ma non trovarsi mai con un roster che conti un numero troppo elevato di persone.

Non preoccupatevi, nessun contenuto del gioco è precluso ai nostri gildani. Grazie infatti ad un’alleanza interkittenonale svolgiamo settimanalmente tutte le guild mission e le attività che richiedono grandi numeri, riuscendo nel resto della settimana a divertirci tra di noi senza estranei, perchè tali sono le persone quando in gilda ci sono centinaia di nomi.

Cerchiamo gente volenterosa e disponibile. Non importa la frequenza, non importa il livello. Si cercano amici e compagni, non automi con cui farmare!

Siamo su Seafarer’s Rest. Non importa se giocate su un altro server, va benissimo giocare anche in guesting per provare se quello che vi ho raccontato corrisponda a realtà una volta capito se la nostra community e il nostro modo di giocare vi si addica o meno, potremo parlare assieme del transfer.

In Gilda abbiamo player di ogni tipo, dai farmer più spinti agli occasionali del pve, che magari son sempre nelle nebbie a fare sPvP. Non mancano gli eventi organizzati in W vs W con i nostri commander.

Ogni settimana organizziamo piccole sessioni di training per i nuovi player, sia per lo sPvP che per il W vs W. Diciamo che da noi troverete sempre qualcuno pronto ad aiutarvi in qualunque occasione.

Per tutti quelli stanchi di essere soltanto un numero in più nel roster di gilda, per tutti coloro che cercano una gilda dove poter stringere amicizie in un clima familiare e totalmente incentrato sul rapporto tra i giocatori, noi siamo qui!

Se siete interessati venite a trovarci sul nostro portale: http://ahrimans.enjin.com

Low FPS - [merged]

in Account & Technical Support

Posted by: arjov.8649

arjov.8649

I also thought it was cpu bound, and that’s why i can’t explain it going smoother on a lower end pc. pve has no problems for me, i have 100-110 fps and 60-70 in crowded cities. but in world vs world during crowded events i fall down to 25-30 fps. my GPU is always at 35-40% usage while my cpu about 70%.

on the i7 920 the cpu usage is around 20% open world and 50-55% in w vs w during events .

so i got the conclusion that the game is obviously cpu bound, since it runs smooth on both 4670 and 7870 while openworld, but i don’t understand the difference in cpu loading (maybe better optimization with intel processor), which i think makes the great difference in fps during w vs w. i’m sure that if my processor was at 20% too in open pve i could benefit from my higher end vga, but it’s just my thought. next step will be trying my 7870 on my girlfriend’s pc (also if she doesn’t like me opening her pc ^^)

i’m an engineer too, mechanical engineer to be precise. now after having oranges and apples sold, coul we build an interesting topic on how my gf cpu is being used so less than mine? i’m pretty sure that’s the bottleneck.

the only thing i could check is tryin to use catalyst 12.6, since the ati 4670 it’s only supported till 12.6. but nothing, with 12.6 the 7870 simply works the same way, with comparable fps to 12.8 and 12.9 beta. processor still in 70-80% usage range.

today i installed gw2 on my gf’s pc since she wanted to try it……..BAMMM 70-80 fps in crowded place where i get 35-40 !
my pc :
phenom 2 940 @ 3.8 ghz
ATI 7870 OC
4 gb ram
my gf pc:
i7 920 @ stock (2,67 ghz)
ati 4670
4 gb ram
nice, very nice don’t you think? i spent 230€ for my new vga and gave my old one to my gf, and she runs gw2 better than me XD
the real important note is that my gf cpu goes 25-30% when running gw2, while my cpu goes 75-80%. i think this is the problem, but i really can’t understand.
