Painfully Slow Interface

The Vehicle Selection and Config Menu are extremely slow with Game running which makes creating Configs and Tuning them a painful Process.
It does improve a bit with the Game Paused.
Any Help?

Windows 8.2 64bit
8GB Ram
GTX850M
i7 with 3.2 GHz Overclock

Not the most powerful Machine but the Game runs smoothly otherwise, it's only the Interface that sucks.

I may be the Millionth Person asking that Question, went back a couple Pages and found no other threads on this though.

 

Why do you have some words capitalized? I'm

 

I'm german, it's Reflex and makes a Text easier to read since the Keywords are immediately visible.

 

I've actually been finding the same thing, really annoying how slow the UI is compared to the actual game. I can run the game with next to no physics lag whatsoever with 2-3 cars, but the UI is almost unusable. I have to pause and unpause the UI to get anywhere.

 

Same here, So annyoing.

 

is that i7 a dual core, or is it a quad core.
If you set the UI Process Priority to above normal it will run faster, but it will allocate less CPU time to the game, also drop BeamNG priority from High to Normal.
(Priority changes can be done by going into Task manager and going to details tab, then press the CPU to order the processes with highest CPU usage (most likely BeamNG) first, then rightclick on it and set priority, (also you can change affinity (the cores the process can use, but dont change this on Beam because it is not just car physics (there are shadows and other stuff). Only change affinity if you are using an old non multithreaded game)

 

I'm sure for many slowdown happens, when hitting ctrl-E, ctrl-W or when going to select UI apps, menus open slowly, mods slow down this very much.

Another thing that slows down is CPU load, especially on some custom maps that have a lot of objects.

With fresh install and only vanilla content there is not so much of slowdowns, but Ctrl-W starts to be bit slow with this setup, showing all those parts takes time, I'm totally running out of CPU power from Thread 2 here, my peak CPU load monitor shows how it is peaking at 100% constantly, also Thread 3 is occasionally spiking at 100%, not sure why it affects listing of parts speed though, but maybe that runs on Thread 2 where graphics related stuff runs, those cars are with extra two spot lamps added, that setup kills any CPU on the planet probably:


First time opening menu, panel, etc. is always lot slower than opening after that, under some situations it can be more than an second to open.

Mods affect of course as every time opening parts list or vehicles, it has to go trough everything to know what to show up and those will make UI very slow.

Few times I have experienced UI to be updating something like 1fps, without any proper reason.

After I did clean reinstall of BeamNG, I haven't put mods in and UI has been very fast, so I would guess it would be worthwhile for people having this issue to write up number of mods they have.

 

All is well until I use the UI, the Game is still smooth but the UI is barely usable.

 

I had the same problems when I had my pentium, with my new I5 it's fixed, so it's probably a CPU problem I guess?

 

As you can see my CPU is not the Problem. Neither is my RAM.
