Issue Description

When in menus (such as the Options Menu and any of its sub-menus) my framerate drops to anywhere between 5 & 15 FPS. I loaded a singleplayer would to see if there were any abnormalities with framerate, but I was easily able to get 500+ on the starting tree.

@Wolf1596Games the version of java you listed is not the same as your game is running. Can you make sure to swap to the newer version and check again?

@Darkosto I tried swapping to the newer version in the Curseforge settings, but whenever I launch the pack it still uses Java 8 Update 51.

I have the same issue on Java 14.0.2

i7 4790k
16GB RAM (8GB dedicated)

I can confirm that the same issue is happening even with Java 11.

Can you download the attached image? Then copy over the image located in config\topography\images then reload/load the pack for me? Does this then solve your issue? Image should be named as options_background.png 😄

@artdude543 It does reduce the severity of the framerate drops but they're still present. In the controls menu, I drop to between 20 and 30 FPS. Which, to be fair is much more usable, but still kind of annoying.

It is indeed a topography image caching issue. At stock settings on 1.0.1 topography's event handler is nearly 91% of all computation in menus

You might be able to alleviate it even more by shrinking the resolution of that file so it doesnt need to do as much, but nothing aside from a mod update will fix it properly.

Yeah, @Shadows-of-Fire after playing around with a sample and then watching the loaded assets in memory. Found the background image to be the culprit. Lowering the resolution of the image does help. The test above at 720p should help all the users.

Consideration to try with 480p but will see what comes from the topography devs in regards. As PackMenu is handling the higher-res assets without this issue. So we should be able to keep the 720p with a mod update/tweak 🙂

Can confirm that replacing the image does make it better.

I downloaded the latest update of the topography mod from curseforge, and I can confirm that, now the issue is gone. I get stable 60 fps in all of the settings menus.

Yep can confirm that Topography v1.17.2 fixes the issue

Fixed in modpack version 1.0.2 which is currently live on Curseforge and ATLauncher
