High CPU utilization jump gates - Old 3rd party mods issue.

Post by eXetus » Mon, 13. May 24, 10:54

Hello everyone,

I've been playing X4 for a few weeks now and it's a lot of fun.
Unfortunately, for a few days now I've been having the problem that I can't get near some jump gates with my character, otherwise the CPU load goes up (I can hear it, because my water cooling system gets louder) and then I can't load any more saves from the current game and can't exit the game via the menu (it just freezes).

Example: Jumpgate: The Void -> Getsu Fune

If I send non-player led ships through, no problem.
Does anyone know this, or has anyone had this before?

Many thanks for your support.

We would need some useful information to be able to help you effectively. I would also start by verifying your game installation assuming it isn't 3rd party modded - in which case mods would be likely suspects as this behaviour is not typical with unmodded games.

Thank you for your message, while reading your message I realized that I had not even looked at the topic of mods. I actually had some mods in the game that I had used years ago. These must have been automatically installed again (Steam Workshop), although I had simply carried out the STD installation. After deleting a few old, probably no longer supported mods, everything works now.

Great to hear and enjoy the game. This sort of problem is also why we discourage modded game/savegame reports in Tech Sp and Beta forums.
