The Dotabod integration causes cyclical FPS drops in Dota 2 due to the GSI configuration. Multiple streamers (ODPixel, Gorgc, and potentially Arteezy) have experienced this issue where FPS drops significantly every few seconds in a regular pattern.
- The issue is caused by the GSI configuration file that Dotabod uses to get game data
- Removing the GSI folder completely fixes the FPS drops but breaks Dotabod functionality
- Modifying the buffer and throttle values in the GSI config can reduce the severity of FPS drops
- ODPixel found that setting
buffer: 0.0
andthrottle: 5.0
helped minimize the issue
