Hookshot version

v2.1.0

What kind of problem

Low fps or stutter

What happened

The game runs perfectly fine inside Kakariko Village and deku tree, maintaining around 30 stable FPS (approximately 60–80 FPS with Frame Generation enabled).

However, at the beginning of the game, after leaving Kakariko Village and entering Hyrule Field, performance drops dramatically to 10–13 FPS (around 30 FPS with Frame Generation enabled, but highly unstable and with noticeable stuttering).

Lowering graphics settings makes no difference, and neither CPU nor RAM usage appears to be maxed out.

Another important detail: Returning to Kakariko Village does not restore performance. FPS remains low until I completely close and restart the game.

I'm on the newest release, or the problem is still there on it.
I searched the open issues for this problem.
I'm not attaching game files, keys, hookshot.exe, the .bin caches or saves.

Thanks for the report. Reports of the same kind are collected in #1001, which lists this one with your details and links back here, so one fix closes them together. Follow #1001 for the fix and add new details there (or here). If this turns out to be separate it will be reopened.
