Sonic Frontiers: Poor performance with mods on Linux (CachyOS) #130
Description
Activity
I can attest to a part of the issue here.
I'm playing on Windows and.....
When I use mods which are a wide variety, the game for some reason seems to be stuck at 40 FPS minimum.
Meanwhile, when I turn off mods, it goes back to playing entirely fine at a smooth 60.
Heck, even the overhaul mod Frontiers Revisited with its current demo version, plays at 60 just fine.
Something doesn't feel right about this.Specs:
OS: Windows 11 Pro
RAM: 32 GBs
CPU: Intel Core i7-4790K @ 4.00 GHz
GPU: NVIDIA Geforce RTX 5060
What the title says. Without mods the game seems to run perfectly fine but with mods enabled the game has very inconsistent frame pacing and can't go beyond the 32-38 FPS range, despite only using about 40% of my GPU. This happens on both X11 and Wayland and regardless of what Proton version I use. I have a dual-boot Windows/Linux setup and on Windows the game runs at a smooth 60 FPS with or without mods, so it's a Linux-only issue for me.
