Performance Profiling Overlay

The performance profiler is a developer tool that is not needed during regular gameplay. If you are a modder or developer who actually wants to use the performance profiler and interpret the results, see Scripting/Profiling the Game.

How to close the Performance Profiling Overlay?

While playing it can happen that, by accident, you press a shortcut that opens a developer tool, often in combination with keys on the NumPad. The Performance Profiling overlay obstructs your view of the game, and you cannot tell how to close it.

Solution:

Here some things to try to close the various overlays:

• Pressing CTRL key+H key closes the overlay in most cases.
• Pressing ALT key+NUMPADCOMMA key is an alternative to close it.
• Or you can save and quit, and restart the game.
