You're a genius. Thanks so much. You've made the game that much better.

This really works .

Now only if we can somehow get those video comm screens from opening when a message is transmitted, and that I think would kill the other major fps bug.

Any details on what sort of Frame rate increase this can bring compared with before using the mod?

On my system have 25-30 FPS generally, but have drop to 8-10 FPS when highlights occurs (when scanning info point resulting to a station highlight), with aggressive version drop generally not append and with normal version have drop to 10-15.

A temporary optional file will coming soon, since it's seem that it's a forgotten test mission developers gonna certainly correct this soon !


[edit] It's seem that your talking about all video conversation ? And I'm understand that your talking about those dialogue without interaction that occur some time when your scan info-points and trade offers...

Anyway I'm gonna try to find the way to remove those videos but I'm think it could be used just until dev. tweak them ![/edit]

the testmission seems to be bugged in that every time I scan something on a station, it lowers my reputation with the station owner.

I'll check this file, but can you confirm that npc dialogues not appear ?

I suggest to remove unlocks.xml or rename it (if it's not already made) until i found what append...


[edit]

Seem to be corrected, but Nexus is down...

Here is a link to fixed Remove testmission2 :
