    You can set it in the menu, or CTRL +F2 on keyboard.

    Makes everything look like something is not quite right. It's implementation
    Makes everything blurry to simulate motion. (Well supposedly). In reality, it makes games look worse and can give you motion sickness

    That's the problem. A 16GB graphics card consumes about 14GB of VRAM. You only have 8GB, which is not enough. It's 2026, and video cards with 8GB of VRAM can hardly be called gaming cards.

    Braking is still bad on the 47 and 20 when pulling wagons it takes ages to stop.

    Your theory with this issue would hold water if it weren't for a couple of things I've already given......

    It isn't every time at the said locations it is maybe once every twenty times in timetable mode and maybe 75% of times in Scenarios. (So not every time at the same locations). Also, again as mentioned, saving and then straight away loading the save reverts fps back to 60 fps (what I've capped it at) at that exact same location.

    According to Steam the minimum requirements are 2GB of VRAM and the recommended is 8GB, so why would there be a problem?

    Because there exists a group of…people, who think that if you don’t have the absolute top end of hardware, then it’s your fault a game doesn’t run well.

    What does monitoring of the same Steam or MSI AF show? Perhaps with specific resource consumption figures the reason will be clearer than crystal ball divination.
    Is there a minimum FPS that I should get written there?
    Unfortunately, I only have a mid-range system.

    Your implication was that you needed 16GB of VRAM to run TSW, which excludes all but a handful of NVIDIA cards and leaves AMD cards.

    It’s a preposterous line of logic & completely sweeps aside the most simple & likely answer, which is perhaps the route has some performance issues.

    The same as the NVidia figures i've already given in the screenshots that there is a sudden spike in GPU resources that does not clear as usual after a second or two and stays until the game is saved, exited to main menu then reloaded at which point GPU resources return to normal levels and framerates return to the normal capped 60fps.


    What on earth you keep going on about it not being a top end card for I do not know as if you'd actually looked at the post you'd have seen it explained it is not a constant issue but one that will randomly occur at locations (So therefore not an issue with the card being underpowered) and would also have seen the GPU usage etc during and after the issue that you asked for already shown in the screen shots.

    Maybe keep off the Vodka in future. ;)

    Maybe there is, maybe not. I don't see a problem with mine, or I don't remember it specifically in this place.
    Your monitoring shows just nonsense instead of really important data. What will it show in terms of VRAM usage, GPU frequency? Well,Well, it shows that the video card is loaded at 99%, while its TDP is lower than in the second screenshot with a lower load. Provide all possible data, it will be much easier for developers to find the problem.

    If the developer wants the VRAM usage or any other data not already given I will provide them with it. (Yet again GPU frequency is already in the images provided). Now if you've finished just clogging up a feedback thread for the sake of it and being of no help at all i've got trains to drive.
