Question / Help Space Engineers FPS problem

[Ratel]

Hi, I am looking for help with OBS and SE. When game is on my OBS works only 17-39 fps(without recording/streaming). I have 60fps in game. Any idea what might help?

Log file doesn't contain any streaming or recording attempts.

And what ? I just run game and OBS have only 17 - 24 fps.

You need to do a recording attempt first, stop the recording, then submit a new log to see if it's skipped frames (CPU overload) and/or lagged frames (GPU overload) that's being the culprit.

But record does not matter. Important is what is used. When I'm in grzxe OBS has a 17-29 fps. (Unstable value). When clicked OBS, then it is 60 fps.

This is due to the fact that the game mixes Computing and DX11. Both of these cause a complete GPU state switch, which of course has a negative effect on OBS since it relies on being able to stay in a DX11 state.
You can sort of fight against this by lowering the games priority, giving OBS a higher priority has no effect. Alternatively wait until the game makers either implement DirectX12 or the Vulkan API backend.
