Game barely runs after reaching main menu

[CharmingThunder]

Hi, I picked up the game on the recent sale on steam as I've had my eye on it for a while.
Unfortunately the game takes an obnoxiously long time to load and when it does I'm presented with the main menu at a fairly messed up resolution. It barely runs presenting one frame every 2-5 seconds and changing the video settings does nothing.

I have tried verifying the cache on steam and running it in administrator mode.

PC specs:
CPU: AMD FX-6300 3.6Ghz
RAM: 8GB
GPU: nvidia Geforce GTX 1060
OS: win 7-64 bit

I'm happy to post any logs/diagnostics if asked, but I'm not very technically minded and haven't a clue where to find them.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

I'm also have this problem. Also, computer dosen't react to alt+tab and windows button when it happen. New drivers for GPU and reinstall game doesn't work.

CPU Intel Core i5-6600 3.30 Hz
RAM 16 GB
GPU NVidia Geforce GTX 1060 6 GB
OS Windows 10 64 bit

So after messing with it a little more today, I've found a workaround.
Setting the game to windowed mode (Important it's windowed NOT borderless fullscreen) makes it run properly, but this isn't really a solution, I'd like to be able to play with my actual resolution rather that a little window on my desktop. (setting the resolution too high makes the window behave oddly)

In full screen is it trying to run at 4k?

Reinstall my GPU driver another time, and now this worked. BUT! In game about 75% of buttons doesn't work. I only can start a new campaign and move my ship with RMB. That's all. I can't even exit the game without alt+F4.
Omnissiah obviously cursed this game.

1920x1080 is my current screen resolution. (you think I'd buy the game on sale if I could afford 4k monitors? )

I've had issues when I change from full screen to window or back the game had changed to 4k. I noticed as my mouse cursor was a lot smaller and slower.

Greetings Admirals,

In the past, Focus_Jolan has solved a resolution issue that looks like yours:

Can you please try to replace your Game.ini and GameUserSettings.ini by his?

Let us know if there's an improvement.

Thank you.

Hi, sorry I've been busy the past week and haven't had much chance to mess with the game. I tried relaunching it earlier today and for some reason it launched in VR mode (not sure how, I only have one of the really early oculus rift dev kits given to me by a mate) after disconnecting the oculus rift the game launched normally (it's still opening steamvr but the headset's disconnected so no "vr mode") and appeared to have fixed the issue.

after testing in a couple of skirmishes the game does in fact appear to be functioning normally and the framerate issues are gone in both fullscreen and fullscreen windowed.

I did replace the config after the weird VR episode but I'm not sure if it's resolved any issues or if it's changed anything (SteamVR still launches, still no framerate issues, etc...)

Thanks for the help and I'll play the game some more when I get the chance to actually test that everything is fixed
