Rediculous graphical lag while zoomed out on Insane map with latest patch (Beta 6 Patch 2)

from GalCiv3 Forums

As title states.

 

Only seemed to kick in after I had uncovered a significant protion of the map.

 

FPS drops to single digits.

 

Changing graphical options seemingly has no effect.

 

Loaded other saves from different plays and they have the same problem.

 

With previous version I had no issues whatsoever and could easily run (60+ fps) a 30+ faction game on an insane map with all graphical options cranked up to max.

Seeing a similar issue with the opt-in beta (0.97) on a huge map. I have 2 radar ships out (23 sensor range) and have discovered perhaps 75% of the galaxy. All post turn movements for all the other civs (4 major, 1 minor so far) are jerky, as if the FPS dropped considerably. Running an AMD FX-8350 (8 core), R290 & 16 GB ram system, and on the last version (0.95) didn't see this at all.

Can confirm that I have the same problem. I play on Insane map size and uncovered maybe 15-20% of the map and the lag is already present. In Beta 6 Patch 1 (v 0.95) it was fine.

My system specs:
GTX 970

i5-4460

8GB RAM

Win7 64bit

rediculous > ridiculous

I've got to ask the obvious question here, did you guys start a new game once the latest patch was installed? If not, that's most likely your issue. If so, never mind. :)

Can confirm that this was new game on 0.97 (the current opt-in). Definitely a regression from where the performance was 0.90 and prior.
