More Frustration With Clip Studio Paint!!
10 years ago
Clip Studio has started doing that pausing thing again. This behavior that I can find absolutely no one else reporting anywhere on the Googles has somehow followed me through a full OS wipe and reinstall.
Here are the symptoms again, and if anybody can scrounge up any leads I can follow, I would be SUPER STOKED to hear them:
- Every now and then, CSP pauses all input. There are usually 2 or 3 bursts of pauses in a row, where all input stops for a couple seconds.
- These pauses are sporadic. They seem to happen about every half hour, but sometimes more, and sometimes less.
- They can happen when I'm using the Wacom, or the mouse. Doesn't matter.
- They don't happen in Paint Tool SAI, Photoshop, or any other program.
- I've tried shutting down all other software while I draw, it still happens.
- I've tried adjusting the task priority for CSP to High, still happens.
- There is a burst of activity in the "Ethernet" pane of the Windows Task Manager Performance graph that corresponds to these pauses.
- Despite this spike above, I've never been able to catch a corresponding event in the Network activity table in the Resource Monitor, where it can tell you what program is sending/receiving how much data. (Maybe there's a packet sniffer or something that can catch this better?)
- I've done several full scans for malware on my system with various products (Ad-Aware, Windows Defender, etc) and found nothing.
- These pauses do not happen on my laptop, which has much of the same software stuff on it, and is MUCH lower spec (slower processor, slower graphics, less memory, etc).

Try the beta drivers... if you are.
1) Get Process Monitor from Microsoft.
2) Make sure the option "Drop Filtered Events" is enabled in the Filter menu.
3) Set a new filter (Ctrl-L)
4) Set "Process" + "is" + "CSP.exe (or whatever)", and set it as the only active filter.
5) Enable all activity classes (registry, file, network, etc.)
6) Start capturing events.
