Hi @我的鼠标会回头
Are you using a third party antivirus? If so, please add the whole folder of the game to the exception list.

No, only Windows Defender is enabled.
Thanks anyway :slight_smile:

Did you try disabling the HD graphics?

Just tried. The problem seems fixed, but the FPS drop from 170 to ~60. Now it’s at least smooth.
Thanks.
(maybe you should consider to fix the HD graphics in the future)
