Azuli-Bluespots Posted January 10, 2023 Report Share Posted January 10, 2023 With mods, Vintage is running hungry on memory. Is that normal? Can I force it to run on vram somehow? I got me a 12gb video card and it seems to barely use it Specs: Kubuntu 22.04 (linux) Ryzen 7 5700G 16 GiB of RAM xfx 6750XT 12gb of vram 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigBadBeef Posted January 12, 2023 Report Share Posted January 12, 2023 More mods = more RAM. It has to put all the custom features you added on standby into memory. That's just how it is. Time to scale back on the tweaking! Also, defer to my guide if you want to gain quite a bit of performance on Linux: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, defer to my guide if you want to gain quite a bit of performance on Linux: Thank you for the explanation, Vintage seems to handle content in a... very unusual way I guess. That said, the solution there didn't work for me and I'm not sure why - my game kept freezing at the title screen with that option on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigBadBeef Posted January 15, 2023 Report Share Posted January 15, 2023 There is nothing unusual about it. Any mod in any game whatsoever will increase consumption of system resources. Can you tab out into the terminal when it stops responding and make a screenshot? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VS was freezing BADLY to the point that either I had to wait for it to crash, or forcibly shut down my computer. I removed a few mods, reduced some settings and it got to "you've been playing for too long, I'm gonna stutter and crash without warning" BUT it takes hours to do this now. I'm not sure if it was the Fancy Sky mod with HD textures, or a combination of it with slightly heavier settings. (also I stream the game, so there's also that in the background, and i started to close my browser too before loading a map.) While it's more stable now, I'm planning for my modlist to be lighter after the 1.18 update since I'll have to make a map anyway. I've been heavily modding stuff for a few years, but Vintage is likely the first to get this memory hungry SPECIALLY considering how stronger my hardware is right now compared to previous iterations. Edit: I also increased the swap memory from 2 to 4 gb before it stopped misbehaving like that. Edit 2: Wait, you mean with the option on your other post? I'll try to get some info.

BigBadBeef Posted January 16, 2023 Report Share Posted January 16, 2023 It will never stop being hungry, especially with mods. Its a voxel game by its very nature in a world where 100% (Yes, ALL of it, not even 99%, but every single piece) of graphic hardware is optimized to render polygons. Its a great piece of technology that always remained on the sidelines. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And after the final message, it is basically frozen on a black screen. Not even closing it normally is possible, I have to use stuff like the Kill command. Tried it a second time without messing with resolution, and it freezes completely after the missing dragonflies mention without any other message if I even open the save list. My game is installed on a folder, as a "portable" version with links to all the main usual locations intact. Saves, screenshots, mods, the works. While I do have a large number of mods installed, I don't think they are doing anything on the title screen for the game to just stop like that.

Mags Posted November 25, 2023 Report Share Posted November 25, 2023 Hey there. Did you ever get anywhere with this? I just had to do a clean install of OS - Win 10. My PC is not epic, but I've got more RAM than I need, and a GTX1650 Super, Ryzen5 3600. Game was running like a breeze before the new install. I can't get LAN to work, so I'm having to reload repeatedly trying new things, and the load leaves time to go get dinner. Then, when I finally do click the go button, boom, spinny thing and half an hour to exit, or hard reboot because I can't even get to task manager most times. I'm at a complete loss. I can't find errors anywhere. My drivers are installed. BTW, LAN still stuck on "my PC hates life and is actively refusing connections." If anyone reading this has suggestions, I'm grateful. Thanks for any help, and best of luck to anyone struggling. Much thanks. Magz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
