Summary​

The game begins to stutter drastically while panning every 1 to 2 seconds, even while the game is paused.

Description​

The game begins to stutter while panning as my empire/realm grows independently of government type, population in the world, or any other aspects that would affect performance. The stuttering occurs while the game is paused, or while time is going. The stuttering happens every 1 - 2 seconds, once again regardless of it is paused or playing. It doesn't matter what graphical settings I have on; the issue persists. I have tried the full screen optimization fix + capping the fps at 60 + 1080p resolution, but once again nothing happens. I have uninstalled the game 3 times, the last one being a FULL clean installation (deleted all documents, moved my saved games to a different folder, and installed everything fresh). I have made the game an exemption for Antivirus checks. I have installed C++ and NET. to see if it helps, but it didn't. I have run the task manager while panning to see where the performance drops may be, but there are none. I have looked at almost every post in here that has to do with screen stuttering while panning and tried almost every fix, and nothing works. I rolled back the game to the previous version 1.14.3 and the issues weren't there, but once I updated the game back the stutter appears again. I am at the roads end. I believe I have reached the limit regarding my basic knowledge regarding Ck3 Troubleshooting. This issue is out of my grasp.

I have a 13th Gen Intel(R) Core (TM) i9-13900K 3.00 GHz processor, 32.0 GB of RAM, an NVIDIA RTX 4090, water cooling directly to my CPU. My computer is top tier. Performance is not the issue.

I would like to make emphasis to what I mentioned. The issue is not present in update 1.14.3, and instead only appeared since the latest update.

Steps to reproduce​

Open the save. Begin panning across the map. Every one to two seconds the screen should stutter while panning (WASD or mouse). You must have a large realm for it to trigger (AKA Byzantines and HRE together realm size), so the safe will reflect this.

Best case scenario it's already fixed in the dev build, and the issue misteriously disappears with the next update.

Ya I hope so too but it would be nice if the team said something honestly.

I would bet money it isn't and performance will actually be worse.

 

[mp84]

Ya honestly hard to say if this is already fixed for khans of steppes next week. In any case I’m sure some of us will post back here thats it’s not if the dlc release still doesn’t fix it.

I still just don’t get why no one from the team can acknowledge this issue. Incredible.

I can confirm this keeps happening and it's really annoying. As soon as your empire is large enough, this issue just ruins the game. It's also definetely not related to hardware, since even changing the game speed from 1 to 5 or pausing the game doesn't stop the fixed stutter which happens every 2/3 seconds. Let's really hope this is already fixed for the khans of the steppe dlc release.

[mp84]

Ya unless I missed it I don’t see anything about this issue being fixed in the change log. Ugh.

 

[VenecoHead]

Nothing on the change log. I think I might win my own bet. Mark my words, I don't think they will fix it.

 

[mp84]

Ya got a bad feeling we will posting back here on Monday or Tuesday of next week. Maybe with the DLC out it will free up a programmer to look into the issue. Hard to say honestly cause they won’t respond at all.

I think what’s said there is basically the gist of the issue. It’s the same for me in vanilla as I have never experienced it cause I have never been that large, but clearly it’s there in vanilla from examples posted in this thread. I just don’t feel this is a priority for them because it’s way more noticeable in a TC Mod like GoT and PDX doesn’t care about that even though I wouldn’t be surprised if tons of people have brought ck3 just to play TC mods like GoT and not vanilla. So it would be smart for them to fix this issue.

But the fact they are not acknowledging or posting in this thread a status update is just silly and shortsighted on there part.

Here is to hoping after Khans is release maybe they start to take a notice of this issue hopefully.

 

[VenecoHead]

All right y'all. Just one more day. We shall see if Paradox was ignoring us this time because they were aware of this issue and were going to fix it with this upcoming patch, or if they actually just neglected our feedback and will continue to allow such an annoying bug to continue to plunder the performance and gameplay of those who continuously like to recreate rome, World Conquest enthusiasts, and AGoT players alike.

Just one more day and we will see C:
