hello everyone. I hope all is well.

I'm telling you that I have a problem with the darkshader distort.fx call effect. When playing for several hours, the effect drops its framerate drastically to approximately 15fps and the game continues to be at a stable 60fps. The funniest thing is that if I restart the PC, it resolves itself, but after hours go back to the same thing. It is as if a memory cache was put together. thanks for your help. Greetings.

Yeah, the restart-fixing-it makes it sound like a memory or vram issue. I never used DarkShader, so I don't think I'm fit to help
Although I'm comfortable with shaders in general and no alarm bells are ringing looking at the shader you shared.

Maybe post how you're using the shader? How are you passing the textures?

HELLOOO. Thanks for your time and answering my question. The code is simple.


rem Initialise
sync on
sync rate 60

rem Load model and shader effect
load object "Sphere.dbo",1
autocam off
load effect "Distort.dbs",1,1
set object effect 1,1

do
rem Draw main camera
sync mask %001 : sync
loop




Thank you
