While Aircraft is a fun map, it lags way to much in many areas of the map. I have a GTX 1080 and Ryzen 7 CPU and still get below 60 FPS in most of the outside areas. Other people agree they like the map but it lags too much. Here is a video showing frame rates in different parts of the map:
I7-6700K 16GB Ram 2666 Mhz GTX 1060 6GB 750W PSU Some white mother board 960 Evo 250 GB OS Drive Some white case Some white cable sleeves 860 Evo 500GB 3x 4TB long term storage water cooled
That is so overkill for what gmod requires, hence you aren't a great example (sorry) for the average baseline. I'm sure we have some folks who play lots of garrys mod because its one of the games where it has a small requirement for cpu / gpu power in this day and age
I have a pretty basic computer and I don't receive any issues with this map? However, I have heard a lot of people in game saying it lags a lot so ;/
I run GTX 750 Ti and I5-2500k and get solid 100 fps in there, 1920x1080 resolution. So ill slap a fat -1 here
i play on laptop and have no fps issues, dunno my specs othervvise i'd say. tried using the nvidia optimisation options?
I actually brought this up to @Opalium the other day and I was getting around 30 fps in areas as well. I think @HelixSpiral was lagging a bit on this map as well if im not mistaken.
+1, mostly just because I think it is a boring and uninspired map. The only unique thing about it is that it has a tank train, which is probably what massacres the framerate haha
While only running a EVGA 960 SSC and a i5-4690k (low compared to most rigs anymore) I've never experienced any issues running this game ever over the past 4 years... unless it's being played on this map. And it's always been that way. And I think it's like @Pacifist said. It's probably due to the "tank train".
