Plugins + Scripts CPU Performance Patch v2.0

[MiSiv]

MiSiv updated CPU Performance Patch v2.0 with a new update entry:

Update 2.1

QoL improvement:

- Added thumbstick control for scrolling in VR. Now you can scroll through pretty much all menus in VR without needing any additional plugins

Read the rest of this update entry...

is there a correct way to use the scrolling ? Quest 3 with virtual desktop in oculus mode. scrolling only works sometimes. its more likely to work if I have both thumbs on the thumbsticks

So is this an AMD only patch? Dont see any settings for an intel 285k...

 

[MiSiv]

Is there any way you could recommend what you'd think would be the best configuration for both config files? my setup is R7 9850X3D and RTX 5080 with 32GB RAM.

I don't have recommended settings for each cpu individually. Everyone needs to configure SkinMeshPartDLL.ini themselves to match their cpu

Also will the patch be working as long as I just drag and drop them into the correct folders?

Yes, you just need to replace the files in the correct folders

Will installing BepInEx also help with the FPS increase?

Installing BepInEx itself won't give you any fps boost. It's needed here to run NativeGCPatcher, which helps reduce those occasional small stutters that happen from time to time

I can't believe my FPS would drop to lower 40s in some scenes.

Fps dropping into the 40s in some heavy scenes, that's actually not unusual at all. A lot depends on the scene itself, like how many characters there are, hair physics settings, the number of lights, and many, many other things. Even powerful hardware can struggle with some heavily loaded scenes in vam

I tested and used it for quite a while on quest 3 + virtual desktop using VDXR. I didn't notice any issues so far I'll take a closer look at it

No. This patch works with all cpus. Everyone just needs to configure SkinMeshPartDLL.ini properly for their own processor

do someone have a installations guide for BepInEx?? would want to add the NativeGCPatcher. and don't seem to figure out how to begin. thanks!

No. This patch works with all cpus. Everyone just needs to configure SkinMeshPartDLL.ini properly for their own processor

So do we need to work off from the original CPU performance patch mod cpu examples of what to add in the skinmeshpart.dll if the cpu fits in only 'one'

I'll add a short guide on how to install BepInEx to the post

Sure, you can use that information as a reference for configuring your own ini file

ok i think i found the issue. so it only works if the left controller laser tracker (blue) is active. right controller (red laser) cant scroll unless blue is active. But blue can scroll without red laser.

I checked, and you're right, that's exactly what's happening. I usually use the left controller to scroll through menus, which is probably why I didn't notice it lol

Thanks for checking this. That was really helpful. I'll look into what's causing it and try to fix it soon

Good grief.

Anyone had luck uninstalling this patch? If I restore the backup files I made before installing, VAM will not fully post, it hangs on the default scene load.

I'm currently troubleshooting a nasty problem with stuttering. I get four or five freezes in a row ANY time I load a new atom, that includes, CUAs, empty, person, etc.

I am using leancore, and only now reading this thread. I tried removing the patch, but it bricks VAM.

Edit

Well. No idea, I reinstalled this patch, and now everything is fine, no stutters.
Only major change was I that deleted the cache in bepinex, no idea what the true problem was with the stuttering. I'll have to see if it comes back.

Edit again - stutters are back, but only in the scene I was working on before.
Going to keep digging. Something is fucked.

Edit edit edit - It's skynet's better bends plugin. 100%.
Don't know if this is something to do with leancore or not, I suspect it is.

Edit x4 - Yep, it's leancore. Sorry to drag the trouble into this thread, but there could be some relevance.

any reason this cant work with offscreen optimizer?

Offscreen Optimizer - Plugins + Scripts -

**BepInEx plugin for Virt-A-Mate — stops simulating and skinning what you cannot see** VaM never stops computing. Skin every character, simulate every strand of hair, drape every garment — every single frame, even for the people standing...

Yes, this patch isn't compatible with LeanCore. Both modify the same functions in different ways, which causes conflicts and leads to a lot of issues

 

[MiSiv]

I have no idea. I'd need more than one lifetime to test compatibility with all the plugins and optimizations that have been popping up on the Hub lately

I've had no issues using both

 

[Pharanesch]

How does the scrolling compare to VR Scroll?

 

[Lamp]

Yes, this patch isn't compatible with LeanCore. Both modify the same functions in different ways, which causes conflicts and leads to a lot of issues

That's fine, but as mentioned, I tried to remove this patch because the fast load times provided from leancore outweigh the performance patch IMHO...

But removing the patch completely bricks VAM. I did backup and restore all of the original files that this patch would overwrite, so I dunno what's happening.

... So uh, leancore is gone. No announcement from wanderer, no notifications from the HUB that the plugin was dirty and has been removed.
Anyone know what happened?

I checked, and reverting to the default files doesn't cause any issues. You must have done something wrong, or something else you use had a negative impact on it

You should ask Wanderer
