Here is my system information.

MOI v4 trial
Windows 10.0.19041
AMD 3970x 32 core
128gb ram
rtx 2070 x 2 with NVLink

Hi dodeqaa, you might try temporarily disabling the AV completely to see if behaves any differently. Maybe ESET still is doing some kind of processing on them.

The trial version is actually more prone to problems in this area than the full version because the trial version is wrapped with an anti-hacking layer called Themida. It makes it harder for it the trial version limits to be removed by hackers but also has some performance penalty.

The full version doesn't have that on it.

Hi Michael,

Thank you for your reply.

I have the trial running at work and its working fine. The PC at work is not using ESET antivirus though. It is using Sophos home.

That PC has the following specs:

Windows 10.0.19041
Intetl I7-7700K
64gb ram
1080TI x 2

Ill try disabling the antivirus like you say and let you know how that goes.

I've just tested it without the antivirus running and the behaviour persists.

Is there anything else I can do to confirm if this lag is because of the interaction between ESET and Themida?
Or does pausing ESET already exclude it?

Sorry I don't know. I would think that pausing ESET would rule it out but there have been problems in the past particularly with ESET where it decides that anything wrapped with Themida getting flagged as being a virus.

But maybe it doesn't have to do with ESET and it's just that the performance penalty from Themida itself is enough to cause this behavior on your one machine.

Hi dodeqaa, if you send me an e-mail at moi@moi3d.com I can make an alternate type of trial version for you that has saving disabled instead of a number of days limit. That version will not have Themida on it and so it should have the same behavior as the full version for extrude and offset.

- Michael

I will do so. Thank you!

Hello,

Just posting this for information's sake.

ESET NOD 32 antivirus suite will cause a lag with the 90 day trial version of MoI 3D even when Realtime Protection and HIPs are given exceptions. Turning off the antivirus will not work as well.

The trial version without save functionality does not suffer from lag. Probably because of the absence of the Themida anti hacking component.

Will continue evaluating and purchase when I'm done.

Thanks to Michael for all the help.
