I've been tweaking the traffic and I can't seem to strike a balance between volume and performance.
Has anyone had any luck? And if so, what traffic values are you using? Or do you use other traffic mods?

You could try to decrease the 10.000 max_vehicle_count value to 5000 in traffic_data.sii file, I did that and got a bit better performance...there isn´t much difference with 10.000 but at least FPS doesn´t fall below the 20's, which was absolutely unplayable. And traffic is still quite high.
I don´t run any other traffic mods, just the Jazzycat AI vehicles (true that they aren´t the best optimised mods)

@LAFAYET47 Do you run any weather or graphics mods? Even with traffic significantly reduced I'm getting frame rate drops in the new states: Wyoming, Montana, and especially Texas.
My PC can more than handle ATS (Ryzen 5600X, 3030Ti, plenty of RAM) so it's leaving me so puzzled.

@wcwood92 Yeah I run Grimes seasonal mods, too. The frame drops have been always there but since 1.46 update they have become a real P.I.T.A....
At the end of the day it's all about the game engine, it's extremely ancient and not capable of taking advantage of modern hardware. It still heavily relies on single core performance...

@LAFAYET47 yeah I'm with you there. The game has seemed to completely outgrow its current engine. It's something I really hope they'll be able to address, because as they move east the land becomes much more densely settled.
Lately they've really been knocking the states out of the park. It'll be a shame if an old game engine holds it back

Yeah my frame rate has gotten much less stable with far more drops since the 1.46 update. I had to change a whole bunch of graphics settings after updating to 1.46 but it's still a problem. 1.45 never really dropped the frame rate low enough to bother me, though I didn't really use mods on 1.45. I'm hoping they give the engine a retuning on both games, but especially ATS.

@RevanFan It's because they need to update the game to DX12, then performance would increase. But that won't happen for at least 7 years and 22 days from now, aka year 2030.
Nothing to say here anymore.
Re: [REL] Minor Urban Overhaul (11/15/2022)
Yeah this frame rate drops since 1.46 has made my ATS experience not enjoyable anymore. I wanna play it so much, but when those frame rate drops happen at dusk, and a few other graphical miscues that weren't there before 1.46.... I just get frustrated and turn off the game.
Re: [REL] Minor Urban Overhaul (11/15/2022)
@digital31 are you noticing the drops with and without this mod?
For me it seems the increased traffic is the worst offender for FPS

It is not traffic, it is dusk and early evening...
In other words - light effects.
