Good morning Expectations I would like to run the game with 20 AI with day&night transitions using only STD content ( no mod) in a track like Sebring or Indianapolis at 80 FPS Stable. Hardware I recently upgraded my graphics card from a GTX 1070 to a RTX 2080s. My CPU is a I7 8700 and I own 16 gb or RAM. Oculus Rift S. Software i use STEAM VR to run the Oculus and I lanch the game in VR HDM with Sync set to NONE, AA set to level 3 and Post Effects set to Medium. Issue Stuttering Despite the decent hardware , I experience stuttering when running the game . Unfortunately, I have to run the game in offline mode as online is not realy active at the moment and therefore CPU is stressed a lot by the AI, ASW I tried setting a race with 20 AI at Sebring and ASW kicks in setting FPS to 40 and when it doesn't activate and I can have also massive FPS drops. Experience with other simulators AC After a lot of tweaking , I am able to run AC at 80 FPS but I run mostly online. Also, I did not install any mod such as SOL as when I did , the performance deteriorated quickly Raceroom No way I can run at 80 FPS, I tried everything AMS2 80 fps flat Any help?
I don't know why but ASW seem to doesn't work with steam VR and rF2. Use Open Composite : https://forum.studio-397.com/index....ead-settings-tips.55249/page-112#post-1016663 I use these settings for 80 FPS 99,99% of the time for GTX 1080 a lot OC + i7 9700K @4,9 Ghz + 16 GO DDR4 4000 Mhz : But with time scale OFF and 12:00 PM : https://forum.studio-397.com/index....ead-settings-tips.55249/page-112#post-1018745
thank you @DrivingFast , I will now try your suggestions. I can see you have a much more powerful CPU and faster RAM than mine , also I noticed you locked the time scale and time so you avoid time transiction. Can you confirm that if you set a race at sunset you get worse performance due to shadows and reflections?
Apart from the graphic settings, the following things have a gigantic influence on the performance : Rain and to some extent the clouds, the day night time scale cycle (in particular sunrise and sunset + night), number of AI and especially ... AI visible. I hate VR reprojection (ASW), so I gave up everything except graphic details (circuit + cockpit + textures) + 30 AI + 6 AI visible only + 130% of supersampling and improvement of the quality of nvidia control panel and AA level 5. Thus, even the most poorly optimized track of rF2 (Nurbugring GP S397. ) works in 80 FPS with a correct image quality but without rain, without day-night cycle, only 30 AI, only 6 AI visible, function Auto FPS UI enabled to 80 FPS and ...... No graphic effects enabled (shadows, reflections, rain, special effects, post effects ......). But the GTX 1080 is the equivalent of a GTX 680 for a full HD screen ...... Really very insufficient. EDIT Every graphic setting which is linked with day/night cycle is worse with time scale and low sun. If you never use rain, deactivate rain + road reflection effects. You will save FPS even if it wierd.
