That's looking good in terms of limiting GPU activity.
I think this is the correct next step. Fingers crossed you have a trouble free session!

Have you tried my suggestion of the VISMAX: X where X is the number of feet each token can "see"? Anecdotally, this has helped me in every campaign, even with the beefy computer similar to what you have. May or may not be a small part of the solution.
Good luck with your next session!
What do you want the title to read? I can change it through the admin interface. I did not see a different title on the first post.

He just corrected the spelling on the first post of "unplayable".
His game has been going for about 3 1/2 hours now and I haven't seen any comments about crashing so hopefully that is a good sign.
Hi all,
As it turns out, the problem was actually the Discord bot. Now that it's removed from my system and I'm streaming audio to the players from a different machine, I have absolutely zero issues at all.
We ran a 4 hour session in a dungeon with a fair bit of LOS, some dynamic lights, different vision variants for the tokens, individual fog of war, and up to about 25 combatants in the combat tracker.
Not a single freeze. Not even one slight delay. In other words it ran as well as I would expect on a system like mine.
Thank you for all your tips, I've implemented most of the fixes you have been suggesting (including @JohnD's VISIMAX tip), and I'm assuming all of it also helps the game session run very smoothly, because we all noticed how responsive everything now was.
For those who are a bit fed up with the title of the thread, fear no more - this issue is now RESOLVED

Great news. Enjoy
Yeah! Glad you got it sorted and that you let us know what the cause and solution was! Hopefully if this happens to someone else, we can get to the resolution quicker now :)
Glad you got it working and good to confirm it was the Discord bot. That will probably come up more as more games begin using sound effects and mood music.
