Godot third person shooter demo.... bad performance

Godot Version

3.5.3

Question

Why is the third person shooter demo that slow I don’t understand… Is it because anything special? I tried in a very powerful graphics card still the same.

Maybe because of bad code, which might take longer to process or other efficiency issues? Hard to know or guess without kniwing about the demo

Which third person shooter demo would that be?


This one it is extremely slow on at least 3.5.3

Which CPU and graphics card model do you have?

If on NVIDIA[1], make sure to install the proprietary driver as Nouveau is still very slow as of writing. Also double-check that Godot isn’t running on software rendering (llvmpipe), which can happen if you update graphics drivers and haven’t rebooted yet.
