    When I enable UI, the framerate is around 15.

    When I disable UI, the framerate is around 60.

    I basically can't play it due to 15 FPS.

    i7-4770k + GTX570

    Any fix? I really want to play it. Thanks

    You only have one video card?

    Try slowbars mod:

    But current versions have lot of performance issues with Nvidia hardware, probably situation will be improved in next builds.

    But How to "edit your ui_mod_list"???

    The game is basically unplayable with 15 FPS and I turn it to low it's still the same. And I just paid 60 bucks.

    Check this file: /PA/media/ui/mods/readme.txt
    It's explain how you can install mods.

    I sure developers know about problem and everything will be much better in next builds. And yes, this is what you paid for: unfinished game.

    You report problems and wishes and devs fix them! ;)

    I have the same problem most likely, i didnt try without the UI yet, but im stuck at around 15 FPS and we have similar rigs. Im also stuck at the slowbars mod. I don't know how to create that file. do you just create a new text doc and name it with .js ? I read the readme.txt but I dont get how to create the file.
