Mellisco 2 Posted February 8, 2014 (edited) Exactly what the title says. And it's not just me, all of my friends are having this problem too. Horrid frame rates, textures not loading properly and such. I have a Radeon HD 7770 and am running the game on the lowest possible settings and my friend has a GTX 780 and is running the game on lowest settings and we're both having the same problems. Is it just because of the new patch or is there something we can do to fix this? Edited February 8, 2014 by Mellisco Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DerDuderich 149 Posted February 8, 2014 Strange. I'm using an HD 6870. Middle to high settings, the rain looks beautiful and I love playing in the rain. It makes such a great atmosphere. Little to no effects on framerate and overall gameplay...? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Von_Carnage 37 Posted February 8, 2014 Ye my pc hung earlier when it was raining, thundering and lightning. saw some reports earlier of memory leak, maybe thats the cause ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
savini 587 Posted February 8, 2014 It may not be the rain. There have been a lot of people experiencing massive frame rate drops. Check this thread http://forums.dayzgame.com/index.php?/topic/172292-fix-for-fps-lag-bug-found/ Hopefully that works...unless it really is the rain in which case, I dunno :blush:.

Gerandar 212 Posted February 8, 2014 they should turn the rain off until they make roofs that block said rain. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sacrdandprofne 100 Posted February 8, 2014 I find it's independent of the rain. I have a low-grade card and I still run fine during rain. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

e00c 84 Posted February 8, 2014 (edited) they should turn the rain off until they make roofs that block said rain. aha yes. I was inside a building earlier.. I got wet :rolleyes: also..the rain isent the same for everyone. for my friend its sunshine but cloudy..for me it pouring down. Not sure how the rain works, but it doesn't sound like it's server side. This happened with us too. Me: rain. Friend = sun. Me: sun, Friend = rain.

namco-4 50 Posted February 8, 2014 they should turn the rain off until they make roofs that block said rain.The geometry actually blocks the rain. Check your shadow settings and make sure they are at least on normal or higher. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Daemonkid 493 Posted February 8, 2014 It's not the rain.There is a memory leak due to odd textures on weapons and magazines. Also, if you're carrying pre-patch gear drop it and run away from it. If performance improves it's your old gear.To ID the stuff that causes the issue, look for odd or flickering textures.What I have read to be common is M4 parts attachments and magazines are one of the big culprits.

deus_drone 98 Posted February 8, 2014 I have no issues at all.If they remove the rain on account of your lack of PC upgrades I will stab you through the internet. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nvrsbr 37 Posted February 8, 2014 I am using a GTX 260 cause my main card died with clouds on max and I get no issues. Stop using the weather as an excuse for you trying to run the game at higher settings than your PC can handle. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wingman.edu 55 Posted February 8, 2014 GTX 780 and i7-4770K, running on maximum settings without issue. Also, haven't seen rain inside yet. Maybe higher settings it doesn't rain inside? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BadAsh (DayZ) 1513 Posted February 8, 2014 I am using a GTX 260 cause my main card died with clouds on max and I get no issues. Stop using the weather as an excuse for you trying to run the game at higher settings than your PC can handle. It has nothing to do with that. The current stable version contains some bugs that creates on and off fps drops and memory leaks. There has been a ton of threads on this today. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BadAsh (DayZ) 1513 Posted February 8, 2014 The geometry actually blocks the rain. Check your shadow settings and make sure they are at least on normal or higher. It is not that. Here is a screenie of indoor rain. I just spawned in, and when I exited the building and entered it again it didn't rain inside anymore: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

hells high 676 Posted February 8, 2014 (edited) Were you carrying or standing next to someone with an M4? The current consensus is that there is a memory leak with one of the attachments or the weapon itself. Rain has little to no impact. Drop your M4's lads, pick up a real man's rifle! :P Edited February 8, 2014 by Hells High Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
