Since patch 3 my fps went thru the bucket, had to readjust details down for playable fps.
Found when buffs dropping eggs fps would go to almost zero, and I think it did for a second once, wasn't visual because I was just upping and they were way overhead, so I connected it to the sound wav.
Well anyways, have been using Mitsu's sounds since he first did them and I loved em. So, I went back to the default sounds and my fps went right back to where they were before patch 3 and I was able to increase my detail sliders back to where they were and went to 1024 textures.
Result, decent quality visual w/acceptable fps
