Download - Github (For non-Steam users)

If this is your first time downloading Code Based Mods, please read the instructions below! Thanks :slightly_smiling_face:

Features

Performance CEO is a code-based mod that can significantly increase performance in Airport CEO, especially in modded saves. This can be observed in a considerable decrease in RAM and VRAM usage while in-game. This pretty much removes the RAM/VRAM cost of airline mods, a primary limiting factor in the usage of airline mods and Airport CEO Tweaks at the moment.

Download & Installation

This mod is installed using the AirportCEO Mod Loader. Simply follow the installation instructions for installing the Mod Loader here. Installing this mod after simply requires subscribing to it if you use Steam, or dragging it into the plugins folder if not. The installation instructions cover this too.

Bugs

There will most likely be bugs with the mod. This mod may have more than my other mods since it has had an accelerated development and less testing.

Please report any bugs in this thread! I, similar to all other modders, will try my best to fix any bugs that are present, but I have limited time on this project. So fixes may take a while to come, and they may never come for minor issues.

As with all code-based mods, don’t report bugs to developers while the mod is enabled! Make sure the issue occurs when the mod is disabled before reporting, and report with the mod disabled. Make sure to always state if you are using a mod when you ask for help!

Other Information

Compatible with: - All Mod Loader mods
Incompatible with: - ALL UMF MODS, Negotiable Turnaround Time and Autoplanner settings (This is a different type of code-based mod)

Version 1.2.0

  • New Feature: Introduced dynamic downscale system, allowing users to get slightly worse graphics while saving on memory usage
  • Bug Fix: Fixed various odd issues surrounding loading the game
  • Improvement: Revamped config menu for clarity
  • Improvement: Fixed some spelling errors cause I finally found the spell check option in visual studio :sweat_smile:

Roll-out status: :green_square: :

This update brings some much needed improvements to Performance CEO. The dynamic downscale system provides a great compromise between memory usage and performance. :slightly_smiling_face: The other features are just minor improvements to help make the user experience better. Note that the default option is now downscaling liveries by 2x (I can barely notice the difference). This can be reverted in config by changing the value to full quality. For those with very very low end systems, you might have to use downscale 4x.
Here is a comparison of the different memory usage. Base is the vanilla game, ram is the old ram savings system, and the downscales show the new options. Note that this does not include using the old vram saving system (now called the load on demand module). This is still available and will help even more.
