Framerate drops in fights

Thats it. 

Outside of combat the game works perfectly fine, but the second I start combat the game nearly freezes. 

Every other game works fine, MMO or singleplayer, so I dont think my computer is the problem. My internetconnection is fine, my boyfriend can play without any issues. 

What do you think is the problem? I just want to play. 😪

I’m having the same issue.

The game becomes unplayable, especially in PVP.

The game freezes to the point I cannot move, activate abilities, and eventually the client keeps showing the “This process has stopped/not responding” window over and over.

This is a very recent problem. My partner can also play fine on their computer and does not have this issue.

I am using an NVIDIA card (3060), partner is AMD.

Driver is updated for card, settings have not changed on PC. Connected through Ethernet with no interruptions in connectivity.

Card is not running hot, PC is not running hot during this issue.

It is related to the SWTOR client, based on the error message showing up when trying to play.

Frame rate drops in combat (in  SWTOR) are mostly the result of CPU performance. You both stated what your GPUs (graphics) are, but that doesn't really matter. I suspect that both of you have relatively low end CPUs, especially if you are using a laptop.

Or, your CPU is being hobbled by system settings and/or poor cooling. Get into you 'Performance' settings and make sure your system is set to 'max performance'. 

This may be somewhat alleviated when the game goes to 64-bit.

This is weird but for me the framerate drop only in a few areas:

- Lair of the Geonosian Queen on Ossus - part with Viscounts

- entrance to Waterworks on Ruhnuk, there's a human mob with two tamed dewbacks 

- ToS, the narrow passage with flying mobs

- EV, the path to Gharj

Other than that, I have no issues with very crowded places ( Fleet, 16 people ops, large groups at WBs).
