Reproducable in testing grounds.

Can monkey coders not make it re-load entire mechlab and store data at once every time? and instead do it in chunks as its required and only re-load updated data? people don't buy and tweak their mechs every damn game ffs.

Navid: "What fixed all my problems was clearing shader cache, and reverting to Nvidia drivers 546.33"
GweNTLeR: "Okay, so thanks to <@354336495445999626> I now managed to GREATLY reduce bug impact:
The necessary lines in .cfg are:
e_ParticlesPreload = 0
e_StatObjPreload = 0
e_DecalsPreCreate = 0
e_PreloadDecals = 0
e_PreloadMaterials = 0
r_ShadersPreactivate = 0
r_TexturesWarmup = 0
The bug still SOMETIMES kicks in, but at least the loading times penalty is not THAT big (I manage to load BEFORE the match starts now) and FPS penalty is just around 5% instead of 33% (in testing grounds, so I could accurately compare ~240 FPS -> ~230 FPS instead of 240 FPS -> 160 FPS)."

Wow, I was thinking of making a thread about this phenomenon after finally connecting the dots while benchmarking something with Solaris City.
I'm assuming like most people playing you're on Windows? I wanted to make sure it wasn't a Proton issue.
For me maps normally load in ~10 seconds, but randomly I get a ~40 second load and the map has that reduced FPS. Have to restart the game after since it then keeps happening every time. Usually the first load is always fine but then it can happen any time after.

Deleted everything out of: C:\Users\User\Saved Games\MechWarrior Online\Shaders\Cache\
Restarted the client
Game did rebuild the D3D11 folder (assuming it means DX11)
FPS went up
Testing continues

A little rant.
I've learned long ago: when someone updates something and YOUR stuff breaks, don't contribute to chaos by tinkering with your end of things, or worse re-install stuff.
If it worked fine before, then the problem is not your end.
Happened with my cell providers, internet providers, work, phone apps etc.

If you start watching a YT vid with some (not all) adblockers, it will mess up your system until you restart the game.

That would fit. For two days before I turn on MWO, I have restarted the computer and the problem does not occur.

Wasn't there an issue with adblock on Youtube like a month or two ago? I recall hearing about that a decent bit before this round of issues in game (iirc some were saying it was a bug and not actually youtube intentionally doing it). Could be something that is causing it sometimes but I think theres more since I've had issues with the game on fresh boot with no browsers open, and have seen others say the same.

The error still occurs. Restarting doesn't help. Cleaning the registry does not help, etc.
in a match I normally have at least 70FPS, now 29-45
UPDATE 2
Maybe I found a solution, although I don't know if it is related, because to me it looks like a problem with shaders rather than busy CPU processes
Anyway, I went to services.msc and turned off every update service (Google, Edge, etc. each), and the FPS returned to normal.
In Win 10, these stupid services can turn on by themselves

I checked all my drivers etc. and its not at my end.
Not sure how much it relates, but my AMD Adrenaline software is also telling me I average 25 FPS with MWO (on absolutely minimized video settings), while I average 96 FPS on MW5 (with absolutely maximized video settings...)
Not at all good.

I would agree that such a thing shouldn't have to happen. However, closing down the game, navigating to a folder, deleting a folder, then restarting the game, is hardly above and beyond. Kicking and screaming while waiting for a dev response and solution, when an easy solution exists (and is what the devs will probably suggest players do as well what an update will do in the near future) is just silly.
