Significant fps drop in some biomes about traverse HOT 10 CLOSED

Can you tell if this is related to generating new chunks or if it just happens all the time? Nothing immediately comes to mind (I was actually more concerned about the sandy biomes) but I'll look around some more.

In testing (and this may be graphics card dependent, but I am testing with the crappy Intel one), I am not seeing any real difference between those biomes and other biomes. The behavior in Mega Taiga biomes in particular is practically identical to the Traverse Coniferous forests. One easy way to cause major FPS drops though is to go in spectator and move around underground. Likewise, passing through a lot of tree canopies above ground causes FPS drops down to 20 or so on my system, like clockwork.

I would be curious to know what other mods are installed, if any (besides FAPI and TerraBlender, of course).

A lot of mods, heh. I can do some testing when I get home. It seemed to be all the time. I get around 70-80 fps continuously in Mega Taiga biomes.

It could easily be an interaction with things like Better Leaves or Sodium I suppose. Although I'd more suspect Terrestria of that than Traverse.

You were right! I forgot about using Better Leaves- taking that off popped the fps up to 80ish. I use sodium as well + indium and continuity.

I like Better Leaves, but I've always used it together with Cull Leaves.

I was using Cull Less Leaves, but I don't think it was affecting better leaves, just vanilla ones. I'll try the Cull Leaves.

Yup, that seems to have done it. Went up to the upper 60s from 40s, that's just awesome. And the leaves still look great! Thanks!

Awesome; this probably applies to Terrestria as well. The canopies are just so large and dense...
