Latest Build Update rFactor 2 - 1.1110 Now Available!

prerendered frame to 1 increases fps considerably with this build for me. especially with AI cars in sight.

9 AI @ nolan with ISI Cobra Street (practice)

everything maxed out ~150fps (slight stutters)
everything else maxed out but pp low ~200 fps (very few minor stutters)

i5 3570K @ 4.2
16G Ram 1600MHz cl9
1070 MSI Gaming X

Over all, very impressive update, those slight stutters i can get rid of by lowering shadows and road reflections, but future looks very promising with this kind of performance. if S397 can get rid of those little stutters with max shadows and ultra road reflections, there will be no match in performance/quality.
still i wonder why that prerendered frames set to 1 helps with AI cars in sight? it does help overall performance too but the ai's wont drop fps allmost at all when this setting is applied. i know that setting prerendered frames to 1 moves workload from cpu to gpu, but could that be all thats causing this?

Could someone try this out too and report?
I have noticed that too.
 
Yes because somewhere the seat starts and going further back would mean u only see the back of your racing seat. So...thats why there are limits...
No because I can't see dash at all. Increasing FOV dashboard becomes visible but of course FOV is wrong.
There is much free space till backseat but limit is already reached!
 
I can't agree more, this is insane. It's like they let a designer that never played the game took over that project and put it without looking at it in the soft.
How can you make a tach without red zone ? In a race car simulation ?

The new HUD is making me think of that FE HUD they put sometimes in race, that look futuristic, but that doesn't help for a cent.
And to be fair, that make me wonder if the same guys worked on the new UI... :D

Get yourself Symhub https://www.racedepartment.com/downloads/simhub-diy-sim-racing-dash.10252/ works perfect with all your sims Rf1 RF2 AC RRE and many more
 
I finally have the chance to play rf2 in full res on my new screen now...this is great! Only sad thing is in wet conditions fps goes from 60 to 19... so, no wet races until gpu's are affordable again.

That's the point, i didn't had any gains on wet conditions. As i play in online leagues with dynamic weather, i cant change anything.

Rain and Night optimizations are crucial for Endurance Racing.

Wrong colors in UI never will be repaired :) New HUD is complete disappointment. Tach is useless(not showing red zone in rpm) and too small, map had too big car markers and become unreadable. Is that HUD took almost half of year development?

Damage indicator seems to remain broken. Shows damage that newer happen with damage multiplier less than 100%

The UI is the problem, rf2 always had horrible huds, this problem will only be solved after the new UI. For now i recomend shqm_hud. Probably the best you can have for now.
 
5 points though ! lol
But seriously ,it helped . I went from 100℅ percent utilisation to 42 in pC2 and got better Low fps .
Cars 2 can't handle Smt what means, that the 4 simulated cores are useless so the utilisation meter says nothing about the Workload of the CPU. If you have a game that can only handle one Core and the CPU has hundred cores, you can notice only 1 percent utilisation but the CPU limit is yet there. The only useable check for a cpu limit is the Gpu utilisation. Is it far below 99 percent, the CPU is to slow

Okay , in pC2 my GPU was always around 80ish % with 6600k but haven't looked with 7700k ,only had task manager (pC2 showed 92% but system was pegged at 100%)and MSI AB fps graph open last time but will check next time i play but that might be a while scince i now have rF2 working again .
Whatever happened though i can see a definite improvement after new CPU .
