Heavy peformance problems with 1.5.5 [SOLVED]
« on: April 05, 2013, 03:46:21 PM »
Hi!,

I just updated to 1.5.5 version and I'm suffering from big performance problems. For example, when I select the FSM I want to edit from the editor combo box it lasts around 10 secs to open. When I change something in the FSM editor sometimes editor freezes and comes to life after other 5-10 seconds. Is any other suffering from this problems? It is really annoying to work this way. I think I'm going back to 1.5.4. Any solution would be really apreciate.

Note: After reverting to 1.5.4 everything is fine again :/.

I'm using 3.5.7f

Thanks in advance.

Hmmm, that didn't come up in the beta, but it's quite possible your project exposes problems we didn't find. Can you send the project to info@hutonggames.com?

Hi Alex,

It is not possible for me to send the project. We are under NDA and almost about 1 month from release. I can do the tests you need thought.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

I am having the same issue. I went from 800 FPS average down to 100-200 FPS average with obvious "choppiness" in all camera movement. This was not present with 1.5.4 (but globals were broken here) and was not present with 1.5.3 (worked fine all around). See screenshot of profiler with 1.5.5.

Note I do have deferred lighting with realtime shadows enabled so I expect performance loss, but the "choppiness" isn't normal even at 100-200 FPS.

Edit: It also takes around 5 minutes to open a large FSM. The PlayMaker editor just takes ages to function now.

So it looks like we didn't do enough testing of the editor changes in 1.5.5  :-[

But we should have 1.5.6 out shortly...

Sorry about that!

1.5.6 is available now in our online store and is submitted to the Unity Asset Store for review. Hopefully it will be approved quickly!

Hi!,

Sorry Alex I was in the middle of a trip this weekend and couldn't attend your emails. Thanks for the quick fix, it is working now (I tested the beta).

Cheers.
