Not able to navigate and move around smoothly in viewport

I am a beginner in unreal engine, and when I installed it for the first time, moving around felt smooth. but now when I move around and look around, viewport is stuttering, and the stutter is very much noticeable, fps is high near 100, with my scene, but still it is stuttering, like snapping to some pixel. How can I fix this issue??

hi @Aklord851

This could be a number of things, if you got high FPS then your getting hitches which arent good.

One thing i can suggest is this:

  1. Close Unreal Engine
    2.Open your project folder in windows explorer
  2. Delete the following folders “intermediate” “Saved” and “DerivedDataCache”

You may get some shaders recompiling but apart from that “hopefully” it fixes it

Edit: not sure why im showing 2x step “2” in my edit it definaltey shows step 1 2 ans 3 lol

I did that, and that did not fixed it. I would like to also tell that when i run the game this issue is not there. and This issue started happening after I got the “d3d device removed error”(something like that) a bunch of times.

It looks like my viewport setting and game play setting are different, if I can get the game play setting on viewport, will that fix the problem, Also How to do that?
Thank You for your help

well, that just removes the controls ui stuff, what about camera?

immersive mode removes UI, game mode shows you what your scene looks like in game.
To view from a camera you select it and it shows its viewport.

Im not sure what you think will fix the glitching here as its clearly something in your editor or possibly a setting thats wrong. some actors can slow the editor but appear fine in game. I have that problem at times but you need to identify whats causing your editor to hitch.

Have you got too many processes running in windows? other 3d applications like blender/maya/3dsmax etc which all want the GPU. Are your shaders compiling? Anything in your logs?

If the game runs fine then theres definatley something bogging down the editor

My game runs super smooth when played, and in the editor it gives me around 100 fps, I have got nothing running in the background, shaders are definitely compiling because the game runs smooth. I don’t know what is causing it :frowning:

you say nothing, but have you got Windows Defender? or other antivirus etc?

They can start runnign at such bad times, try dissabling them
