Windows 10: star trek online below par perormance

yeah, might take me a few days, now I'm waiting on the chance to run an ethernet line as trying to do anything on wifi past basic browsing and skype chatting is a fiasco and a half.

 

what area in specific do you need a screenshot of?

 

To be honest, you're not the only one with performance problems in STO. It may/may not be your hardware, but the game itself runs on a really bad game engine that isn't all that optimized.

I used to play the game maxxed out graphics wise back in the Legacy of Romulus expansion, but after that and starting with Delta Rising performance has just taken a nose dive and I can't even play the game maxxed out anymore...I literally have to make the game look horrible looks wise just to get any sort of decent FPS nowadays.

 

The same as my screenshot. Also LovingWindows might be right as well.

 

ok, on a similar line of discussion if I may..

well I took a friend's advice with starwars the old republic, turned off anything shadow related. I can run the graphics pretty well towards the maxxed out end though I zeroed out the trees and grass for obvious reasons, as they too contribute to lag in that game.
