Hi everyone, I’m practicing speedruns for Resident Evil 2 Remake and noticed something strange. The game runs perfectly at all times with no FPS drops… except when an auto-save happens on standard difficulty. Every time the auto-save triggers, there’s a brief FPS drop, and then everything goes back to normal.
My PC has a Ryzen 5 7600X and an RTX 4060, so I don’t think it’s a hardware limitation. I also checked performance using MSI Afterburner, and during these FPS drops, GPU, CPU, and RAM usage don’t go over 30%, which makes it even more confusing.
I’m using the non-ray tracing version of the game, and this issue happens whether I cap the FPS at 60, 120, or leave it uncapped.
Is anyone else experiencing this? Is it a common issue or something specific to my setup? I’d appreciate any feedback or suggestions.
got into the files for RE2R and find the RE2_config folder and delete it and you should be good to go.
This can happen if the config file for the game is outdated, it never fully resets itself, even if you uninstall the game or upgrade components in your PC. Just delete the config file from the games root folder then run the game and it will create a fresh config file automatically. I was getting this exact issue a while back and refreshing the config file completely fixed it. Installing the game on an NVME drive will also help
Do you have to do this every time? Because I also had this issue but it came back after like 3-4 run attempts. I might’ve closed out of my game to change setting or something in between but it still started dropping frames again after resetting the config file.
