Post by: vip_prizrak_3 on June 20, 2013, 08:55:33 AM

When i open new panel again then FPS falls  more ;( (look at img_3)

What can I do to raise the FPS? 
My device: ACER ICONIA A500

You have a full-screen panel covering your entire screen. You should disable your main camera (3D camera drawing your tank) when that happens.

But what can be done when the panel does not cover the whole screen and you can not turn off the main camera?

Version 2.6.3 has some major performance improvements for Unity 4.1+ users. Other than that -- it's all about how you optimize your UI. Making use of "widgets are static" property within panels is a great way to boost performance.

In Asset Store is currently available only version 2.6.2.

Did you profile your game with unity profiler ?
Is this scene running on a particular phone or tablet ?

You can take a screenshot of your scene when you open a panel, disable the camera and show that screen in the background.

When the panel is closed in the profiler UIPanel.LAteUpdate takes 5% CPU, when opened - 20% CPU and FPS falls to 20.
This does not happen on top devices, but on older devices the performance is very falls (for example ACER ICONIA A500).

Yeah just wait for 2.6.3. It should be out shortly.
