FYI....64-bit is Sluggish, Choppy, and generally just Slow

Post by DWReese »

FWIW, I've played CMO all weekend. Some scenarios that I played were large, and some were small, but they all seem slower than 1307.19. In general, they seem choppy, and slow to respond, necessitating a couple of button strikes to het what you want to do accomplished. Usually, it was just slow to respond, and it didn't need a second button strike.

In general, the x15 button runs slower than what the x5 button ran in 1307.19. I rebooted my system, and even made sure that the Direct11 file was current.

This is just for your info. If it works well for everyone else, then it is probably just my computer.

WOuld be good to list your PC specs. Otherwise the posted info is in kind of a vacuum. If you have Windows 7 or an old GPU, there is a good chance you will see some issues in speed.

I would also suggest running the Benchmark test and see where it lands.

In general, benchmarking has shown that the 64-bit update is only slightly slower than the 32-bit version. But that could attributed to the CPU heavy features added over the last few months.

I run an intel i9 9900K OC to 5GhZ with an RTX 2080 TI Kingpin Edition with 32GB of RAM running Windows 10 Pro and I don't have issues with the 64-bit edition of CMO. I've been running the 64-bit version since they released the first beta.

I haven't had much of a chance to use v1.06 yet, but 1.05.1328.7 (beta version) did run better than the 32 bit version of CMO. I think the additional RAM with the 64 bit version really helps the game, especially with larger scenarios.

My computer uses a Ryzen 7 3800X with 64 GB of RAM (long story) and a RTX2070.

I had a similar problem but got fixed soon.

My laptop has a NVIDIA video card, but for some reason CMO was assigned to the low end integrated graphics. I went to NVIDIA control panel and corrected the setting. After that everything works fine.

With the DX9 version, there is little difference in using integrated vs discrete GPUs. With DX11, I have found the integrated GPU underpowered and use only the discrete GPU. I think this might be even more important for certain overlays.
