VRAM Cleaner

Clears up unused assets after raid start timer finishes

Have you ever wanted to play SPT at 12k resolution but your VRAM keeps maxing out?

Well, now you can! No not really, but this mod should help clear up about 1-2GB of VRAM. There will be a small lag spike right after the start raid countdown finishes, this only happens once at the start of each raid.

If it isn't obvious, this is different than - Ram Cleaner Fix - No they will not conflict, you should be able to run both without issue. My mod unloads unused assets such as textures, meshes, and audio and as a result, clears up a chunk of VRAM. Ram cleaner fix runs BSG's code to "clean" RAM (not VRAM) on an interval, in reality what BSG's code does is actually just allocate the RAM to your paging file.

After testing, I haven't noticed any negative side effects from this, I also can't confirm if it'll cause issues for other mods that load any assets like textures/models. If anyone does notice any negative side effects let me know what it breaks and I'll add a list here for what it's not compatible with. It should definitely work with base SPT and other just general non-asset related mods.

I've made this mainly for the SPT VR mod I'm working on because VRAM usage can get pretty insane on there, figured it'd be better as a mod on its own though because I tested it on flat screen and found it clears up a good amount of VRAM even on there. Check out SPTVR - SPT-VR

Warning:

I've heard from 2 testers of the sptvr mod that after installing this, they got an issue where their gun would shoot once then stop firing. I personally haven't been able to reproduce this and I'm also unsure if it's a mix of using it with sptvr or if it's just an issue with this mod in general. If anyone does notice this happening on flatscreen too, please let me know.

Install instructions:

1. Move Bepinex folder into your SPT folder
2. Don't install onto a fika headless client

VRAM Cleaner 1.0.1

Hotfix:

• Much cleaner initiating of the cleaner, I noticed it didn't always work with Fika because the countdown timer doesn't always reach 0 when you run a headless client. No more delay involved, found a different method to connect it to and it'll happen as soon as the raid start countdown finishes

VRAM Cleaner 1.0.2

Hotfix:

• Added a check to see if the cleaner ran at the start of the raid and avoid any calls to run it again during raid (this is just for compatibility sake with other mods if there's any UI mods that call EFT.UI.PreloaderUI.ShowRaidStartInfo regularly)

Also, just want to explain something about this. I know someone in the comments mentioned that EFT allocates VRAM so this mod could functionally be doing nothing. I'm not so sure about that though, something weird is going on. When you use the…
