Thank you

Yep, older game engines like Dunia may improperly spread tasks across too many threads which causes the performance issue.

Glad it worked out!

It worked! Went from 100-120 to 140-200+

I wanted to know why disabling cores would make the game run better (initial thought would be the opposite), so I did some research.

Here is a summary of my findings:
Old games or certain engines (even some newer games today) are optimized for single core performance. The steps JJJJ's provides simply turn off hyper threading (intel) or simultaneous multithreading (amd). Forcing the game to run the entire core, rather than a thread.

Note: the even numbers (including 0) are the actual cores, the odd numbers are the threads

JJJJ suggests to skip 0, reason being that core 0 is where the OS and background tasks run.

I have a ryzen 5 9600x so I checked the following cores 2,4,6,8,10.
