Fps help
Didn't realize forums moved, I'll repost this here.
I'm at my wit's end. It seems no matter what tweaks I do, I can't get above 10 fps. It doesn't matter if Tera's at minimum settings or maxed out, I only get 10 fps. I've tried the engine tweaks from Bernkastel's guide already, and there's no difference with or without it. I've tried uninstalling the game, running it with and without tweaks, and nothing helps at all, not even a 1 or 2 frame difference. My computer specs are as follows.
i7-6700k, overclocked to 4.6 GHz, a GTX 980ti, and 16 gigs of ram. I'm running Windows 10 home edition, if that matters.

These are the few things i can tell you from the top of my currently tired head. Hope you can solve.
EDIT: Another thing I've heard about is that new CPUs don't work well with older stuff when hyper threading. Try disabling that for a quick test too.
I'm just saying, because my computer, an old stock i5 2500k, 8Gb RAM, and an R9 380 is typically 30+ fps in dungeons at max settings @ 1080p. Got $20 says disabling HT will help, no reason my computer should be doing better than yours.
*Edit*
Just remembered, also look at increasing your pagefile/virtual memory allotment in Windows. I had stuttering and FPS/performance issues with my system before increasing this, and after doing that fix, it ran better and hasn't given me issues since. Someone on gameforge's forums posted a good guide about it, just google "Tera, pagefile" and it should be the first one.
This also works much better if you're running Tera on an SSD as well. I have the game running on a Samsung 850 EVO 250Gb SSD, and Windows/pagfile on an Intel 530 120Gb SSD and have not had any loading/performance issues.
Your problem is almost assuredly due to a software issue.
I assume with trying everything you also disabled everything with your privacy settings, extra apps/programs and the basic anti virus aka Windows defender and/or made the exceptions on your list.
Check your drivers tho, best is the deinstall completely with a program that also deletes it from the registery and the file location.
in your S1engine file you should put CPUNumLogicalProcessors= your amount of cores ( i got 4 ). it is at the bottum of your S1Engine file and this line is not there. You need to put it there yourself.
[AppCompat]
MeasuredCPUScore=254.312485
CompatLevelComposite=4
CompatLevelCPU=5
CompatLevelGPU=4
CPUNumLogicalProcessors=4
Works both for Intel and AMD CPU's. exception is the bulldozer CPU, seems somehow this does not work or not to noticeable.
but i went from 10-15 fps to 35-45 fps on max settings ( with the bernkastel and techdude01's guide ) and the setting for amount of views for pc not unlimited but 30.
also look for a line called Poolsize. standard is 140 ( amount of MB its uses from your card ) and change it to 700 per gb. ( i got 1gb so i use 700. 2gb 1400, also from fellow players anything above 1400 seems not to work. so i would just check it on 1400 if you got 2b or more
And i got a crappy pc.
AMD radeon R7 240 1gb.
Intel QuadCore @ 2,4ghz.
RAM 4,00gb at 1066mhz
But issues from the upgraded version, though not normal, are certainly not uncommon.
1: DO NOT disable/turn off any Antivirus/Firewall software. Ever.
2: Unless, and only unless you did a download upgrade to Windows 10, should you reinstall. Re-installing the OS has an extremely low chance of helping you here.
3: I agree with Ultemecia, delete existing drivers, and reinstall the latest Geforce Drivers straight from Nvidia's website. Never use stock video drivers.
4: Updating your Adobe flash player may not hurt either, just make sure to uninstall your existing one and get the 64-bit version. 32-bit is outdated and archaic.
