Very slow performance during external hangar shots Thread - TIE Fighter: Total Conversion (TFTC) mod for Star Wars: X-Wing Alliance

This doesn't seem to happen consistently, but often when watching my ship either leave or enter the hangar of a mission, the framerate slows to a crawl. I'm not sure what's causing this; the only anomaly I can see is one half of my ship's shadow seems to distort and stretch down the centre line of the landing strip as it moves above the platform.

The game doesn't crash, but it can take more than a minute for what would otherwise be a few seconds of external tracking to complete. It's also not every time my ship leaves or re-enters the hangar.

I noticed this as well.

Wanted to add my thoughts to this (couldn't find my ancient account so I actually registered for this ). Having the same issue. Hopefully it can be fixed, wondering how prevalent it is though? Waiting for this to be fixed and other patches before I dive hard into this because it REALLY kills the experience for me. Turns the game into a slideshow and all frames of the sequences need to happen before you can move on so I find myself sometimes waiting minutes to get on with it. Also it seems to momentarily help by going into the escape menu. Then it will render out a few more frames at normal speed before tanking again, so I doubt it's anything to do with rendering.

Im having this issue everytime i land and start on capital ships, which makes some missions of the reimagined version nearly unplayable as you have to land to fill up your warheads. it takes ages to refill, often it freezes completely and the only thing i can doy is hitting escape to open the menu, when i close it, i get some frames untill it freezes again...i need to repeat it untill im completely out of the hangar again, then the game jumps back to normal framerates. this is really weird and i have no idea where to start with searching for bugs here..

would be nice if someone find the reason and a solution.

Cheers.
