Our Plutonium gameservers have been a mess in the CPU performance department since the last two updates. Starting with the one that mentions memory improvements (r5304) and now the latest (r5314).

What used to be around ~20% usage with five T4 gameservers (ZM) and four T5 gameservers (ZM), is now averaging almost double with tons of spikes in the graph.
Windows Server 2025 Datacenter running in a virtual machine, 12GB RAM and 4 vCPUs allocated.
So no WINE here, but it's not just you nor the compatibility layer "jank".
@jefferson.orig Hello there! i'm iranian, i used vpn, the launcher takes so long to launch, you have to wait and watch white or black screen of the launcher, but the game is OK in nazi zombie mode, didnt try the multiplayer
you would need to have the old version's appdata files and then you can replace your current plutonium appdata folder contents with them (bin, games, launcher folders), and then start plutonium with the launcher exe to bypass the updater. Plutonium doesn't have an archive of old file versions. For future needs you can manually copy your appdata folder and save the previous versions in case you don't like the update.
The folder selection window Plutonium opens only shows folders because it wants you to select a folder, not a file. Select the game folder.
