#Client Optimization

Hey, just wanted to give some quick feedback about Lunar’s performance lately.

I’ve noticed that the client feels super unoptimized compared to other options out there. I’ve got a pretty decent PC (definitely above average), and no matter how much RAM I assign, Lunar keeps stuttering and dropping FPS. Meanwhile, something like CheatBreaker runs way smoother for me with barely any issues.

It gets especially bad during team fights — like 8v8s or 10v10s — the client just starts falling apart. The second I look at a group of players, my FPS drops like crazy. But if I’m only looking at one person (like only one player is loading in my FOV), the FPS gets a lot better.

I still prefer Lunar overall because of the features — mainly the waypoint system with the API (rallies, KOTHs, spawn markers, etc.), which other clients don’t really have. But right now the performance hits are making it hard to keep using it.

Would love to see some improvements on how the client handles stuff during fights and in general. Thanks for reading!

Im pretty sure new features dont effect performance if you have them disabled but what if they made a lunar lightweight where you had to manually select features

#

they wont but it would be crazy

#

legit would actually get so many more people using lunar

#

because ts been behind since they first added 1.8

Yeah, I used to play on version 1.7 with only the mods I needed and all the Lunar settings on default — it ran super well. I could even record with OBS at 200 FPS no problem.

Now, during big fights with lots of players, my FPS drops a ton, and that’s why I switched to 1.8 (even though 1.7 is way better for PvP, and I used it all the time). I mostly switched because of the servers I play on.

A lightweight version like you mentioned would actually make a huge difference. Sometimes it feels like Lunar just has too much going on, even if you don’t use most of it.

Yeah

#

That's why A LOT of people still use "cheatbreaker offline"

i kinda agree to his point

#

like when you look at old lunar and new one i feel like the only way new one wins is by features like now lunar doesnot feel clean as it used to

this is what ive been saying

#

from 2023-2024 lunar was completely fine

#

now all it does is fps drop

#

even with optimisation mods

#

however other clients work fine

#

so its definitely a problem on lunars side

this version of lunar causes my computer to heat up to 95C

I used the console to check why it was happening and I got this error every time the lag spike happened "Shader lunar_colorsaturation_core could not find uniform named InSize in the specified shader program." so it's absolutely lunar's fault

edit: nvm, I just didn't look hard enough for the root of the problem

Not every performance issue is caused by the same factor

#

oh thanks

#

didn't know, mb

#

i strongly agree

#

Other clients and even vanilla gets better fps and even loads faster than lunar for me

I feel its time lunar make a lite version where we select which mods we need this can reduce the loading times by a huge amount but the fact that betterframes is coming to lc might fix the lag problem

#

yea

#

ive been having the exact same issue

zenith pelican
#

where did u see this also what is betterframes

charred osprey
# zenith pelican how dyk betterframes is coming to lc

It was told in announcement and betterframes is a category of settings which increase your performance this is a rlly good feature by badlion client after lunar bought badlion they are bringing the betterframes feature

I feel like that isn't a good idea
Not because the devs suck but because they haven't even properly fixed their own client yet
And now they wanna either keep working on another client in the background?
I think it might have been too early tbh

I'm not sure if it's a server problem or a client problem, but sometimes, when someone shoots a fireball at me, my fps goes down by a lot and my game start lagging as if I had 5 fps, after that I regain my fps but it's so frustrating
