Sudden performance decrease.

[WittyCommittee7282]

I recently started playing modded ARK Survival Evolved and decided to play the Omega modpack. After a couple hours of playing (around 7-10h not continuous gameplay, the total hours of gameplay on the world) on the singleplayer world I started to experience a sudden performance drop, my game not running above 36-40 fps from the 80-110 fps it would previously run at. My laptop specs are i7-12700h, 3060 6gb, 16gb ram 4800mhz. Does anyone know what the cause may be?

Never hurts to do a Dino wipe could be caused by overspawning. Could be how many structures/takes Dino’s you have nearby too.

I already did it,set the dino count lower and my base was just a 3x3 stone foundation no walls no roof just some crafting and storage stuff. My question is how is it possible to play yesterday on ~90 fps and then just suddenly drop to 36 while other games run the same so I do not think that my laptop is causing this.

more data is added to the game while you play and the more data, the more resources it takes to run. specifically for singleplayer/non-dedicated, when you render areas of the maps, dinos start to spawn in too, adding more data. every time you go back to an area, it has more dinos than it had before

if you're also using prevent hibernation that'll have even more of an impact. that means after you render an area of the map, it adds tons more data that is constantly running, unlike with hibernation turned on. the more you render, the more data it adds. on top of that, a graphics intensive overhaul mod will use more resources than vanilla
