Lag spikes when shooting enemies

[Living_Tribunal]

The game runs great all maxed but sometimes when I go to shoot an enemy the game will lag for a split second. Doesn’t happen all the time but it is often.

Doesn’t happen when using crowbar or pistol but if I use .357, SMG or Shotgun it does. Not sure what’s causing it.

got almost the same issues… i think it has something to do with the sound device or sound caching.
im running the game also maxed out (1080p, i7 3770k, 8gig ram and HD6870)

try to disable ur sound device (in windows!!) and check if the problem still exist.
im gonne try the same tomorrow (im at laptop atm)…

let me know if you find any fix or the reason for this lags.

I had problems with sound stuttering + frame lag. After I disabled my anti-virus and Windows Defender, it got better. I also wrote “-console” in launch options for Black Mesa, but I don’t think that has much to do with it.
