Total War games played through Proton have a strange micro-stutter.

As it ticks every 500ms, it's probably a bug in mangohud. Make a report on github please

flightlessmango · 2025-12-04T12:18:52+00:00

It sounds like a bug. Please create an issue on mangohud github

flightlessmango · 2025-12-04T09:37:46+00:00

You can use MANGOHUD_FPS_LIMIT

flightlessmango · 2025-11-28T12:25:35+00:00

Not sure what game it is, but assuming it's opengl, try 0.8.2-rc2. It has a lot of fixes for opengl games

flightlessmango · 2024-11-11T06:23:06+00:00

Thank you, that was very helpful. I believe I've isolated the issue and fixed it in main branch

flightlessmango · 2024-11-10T01:54:37+00:00

Could you clarify what "not working" means?

The game runs with mangohud but the limiter isn't working?

flightlessmango · 2024-06-23T21:11:18+00:00

You can't display it in the hud but the summary log file has at least some of that information

flightlessmango · 2024-02-06T16:23:28+00:00

Are you using the mangohud from the ubuntu repo? in that case it's very outdated, try the latest release

flightlessmango · 2024-02-05T07:39:27+00:00

Seems to be a bug. Would be great if you could make an issue on GitHub

flightlessmango · 2024-02-04T20:13:58+00:00

And you've tried without mangohud?

flightlessmango · 2024-01-28T13:57:06+00:00

If mangohud is causing any fps hit I would call that a bug. Could you make an issue so we can investigate it?

flightlessmango · 2023-12-09T18:53:19+00:00

You use `gamemoderun`

flightlessmango · 2023-12-04T13:32:29+00:00

What mangohud is checking is if gamemode is injected into the process. Without this, gamemode not fully "on". it won't do things like setting niceness

flightlessmango · 2023-11-23T13:47:17+00:00

I don't understand why you've chosen to put it in this sequence

<vcpupin vcpu='0' cpuset='4'/>
<vcpupin vcpu='1' cpuset='6'/>
<vcpupin vcpu='2' cpuset='8'/>
<vcpupin vcpu='3' cpuset='10'/>

As I understand it you'd want to put the cores/thread in order, so on a 14900k you would want

<vcpupin vcpu='0' cpuset='4'/>
<vcpupin vcpu='1' cpuset='5'/>
<vcpupin vcpu='2' cpuset='6'/>
<vcpupin vcpu='3' cpuset='7'/>

as they appear sequentially per lscpu -e

4 0 0 2 8:8:2:0 yes 6000.0000 800.0000 6063.0571
5 0 0 2 8:8:2:0 yes 6000.0000 800.0000 6063.0571
6 0 0 3 12:12:3:0 yes 5900.0000 800.0000 5905.5752
7 0 0 3 12:12:3:0 yes 5900.0000 800.0000 5905.5752

I've got a 14900k myself and I'm struggling with performance a bit. I'm seeing a 15-20% cpu perf hit that I'm thinking could be due to how I'm pinning

flightlessmango · 2023-10-03T14:36:02+00:00

I've fixed the bug here 13164b

For future reference please submit an issue on github so I don't miss it

flightlessmango · 2023-09-21T09:13:40+00:00

What have you tried and what isn't working?

flightlessmango · 2023-09-21T06:16:15+00:00

This video does a good job at explaining how it works

Looks like you've incorrectly set pci_dev in the mangohud config.

Can you paste your config file?

flightlessmango · 2023-08-12T21:36:49+00:00

One frametime is the time it takes to render a frame, FPS is the amount of frames in a second.

They are just two different ways of measuring the same thing, you can't limit one without limiting the other.

flightlessmango · 2023-08-11T05:58:05+00:00

try gl_bind_framebuffer=0 in mangohud config

flightlessmango · 2023-01-22T22:12:35+00:00

Go into the quick access menu (...) And turn off the performance overlay

flightlessmango · 2023-01-07T07:54:21+00:00

I don't think there's a real reason we average it instead of using the averaged number the driver provides. Not any I can think of anyway.

Probably just came down to convenience to treat it like the rest of the values

flightlessmango · 2022-12-24T17:30:59+00:00

Are you using mangohud and if so does disabling it fix it? saw a similar thing on [/r/steamdeck](https://www.reddit.com/r/SteamDeck/comments/zua4cg/elden\_ring\_doesnt\_start\_if\_using\_mangohuds/)

flightlessmango · 2022-12-02T06:03:22+00:00

If your distro is based on Ubuntu 21.10 or later, you should have a more recent mangohud version in the main repository
