Unresponsive GPU in BeamMP

Support
1

For the past couple of years I’ve tried at least 3 or 4 times to run BeamMP at an ok framerate without success, it lags so much that it’s impossible for me to play it (situation is better in smaller maps and with less people, but if I try to join maps like Italy or the US maps with 16 players it’s just an authentic lagfest). While trying again today I noticed that my PC was not heating up at all, so I checked the usage of the various parts and the GPU was barely being used, therefore I think this is causing all the lag. How could I solve the issue? Game runs pretty smooth in singleplayer, never had any issues there.

Specs: i5 7600; GTX 1070; 32 GB RAM; game is installed on an M.2 SSD

This is the video I shot where you can see all I’m talking about, the GPU usage stays around 0,5-1,5% Watch WhatsApp Video 2025-10-20 at 22.48.40 | Streamable

I had already tried the lowest possible graphic settings and it stills lags because the GPU basically isn’t being used. This doesn’t happen in singleplayer where even with higher settings I’m comfortably getting 100+ FPS in maps like Italy and well over 60 with AI traffic. PC surely is somewhat old at this point but it still runs this and other racing games just fine.
