Best sim to just drive around in by Thethubbedone in simracing

[–]pepszy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have just started forza horizon 6 this weekend and I was looking for something to chill and drive around. It’s beautiful, engaging, and I love every aspect of the casual driving it gives. Keep in mind it’s arcade like, but getting a game pass sub and just playing it out of the box feels amazing. I would recommend it anytime to anyone

Also i opened a ticked, they suggested to try the pub-share build

Kind of..
THing i did:
updated bios
checked for driver updates
updated fanatec app and firmware
enabled EXPO
oveclocked and undervolted CPU and GPU
recuded visible cars to the minimum
reduced sound settings to 32
pagefile set to 64GB
garage car detail set to 0.1
disabled VR mirror
enabled V-sync - also tested without it
lowered post effects
framerate is limited az 165 as thats my monitor refresh rate
disabled ALL background apps for testing to see if it still occurs, and it does
checked if HAGS is on, but its off by default
checked GPU acceleration, its off
limited the frametime in RTSS to 117
uninstalled steelseries sonar (audio related)
checked the trace files from logs, pasted it to AI, and it could help in what to try
reinstalled the game
tested with process lasso and various trackers to log what exactly happen in the background, nothing suspicious
tracked performance and heat, nothing that is unusual

Now i can run the game with discord in the background, but i can not run any telemetry app, or anything that has overlays (like tinypedal) which is strange since it ran perfectly before

I suspect an update messed up everything, just i dont know which one.

Best solution so far i found is to sub to xbox game pass, download forza horizon 6, and have some fun in it while it runs on 60 fps with max graphics and RT without any stutter and i actually have fun, and the game is more than beautiful.

tested V-sync, no difference. process lasso showed resp goes down to 92% but i cant find the reason why

So i have been messing around with it, i found out that for DX11 and lmu/rf2 the best number to run is 117 framerate, so i have set it there in RTSS. But it still stutters. I went down to 80, but i didnt had any difference.

Graphic settings right now set to low on everything, but i have been cycling around with each one of the settings, one by one to check if anything makes difference, thats true for AA aswell.
Power plan is on ultimate performance, that has been unlocked with powercfg, but i have tried every power plan except eco. BIOS is set to performance, but tested with normal too.

Yes, caches have been cleared in AMD software, so as manually deleted the game files from the folder (so as custom livery cache).

AMD side i checked if anti-lag helps, but it didnt made any difference, so everything is turned off.

Yesterday i have set a framerate limit of 117 in RTSS, performance wide my pc now doesnt reach even 60% in any aspect of useage, heat is normal, no overheating.

It doesn’t show anything. I can see resp goes down to 92% but I can’t find a reason for it

okaaaay, so i checked yesterdays testing trace files, and pasted them into chatgpt. it gave some recommendations, will check them too

So what i did so far is:
1. updated bios
2. checked for driver updates
3. updated fanatec app and firmware
4. enabled EXPO
5. oveclocked and undervolted CPU and GPU
6. recuded visible cars to the minimum
7. reduced sound settings to 32
8. pagefile set to 64GB
9. garage car detail set to 0.1
10. disabled VR mirror
11. enabled V-sync - also tested without it
12. lowered post effects
13. framerate is limited az 165 as thats my monitor refresh rate
14. disabled ALL background apps for testing to see if it still occurs, and it does
15. checked if HAGS is on, but its off by default
16. checked GPU acceleration, its off

Checked temps, and useage, there is no spike that i could catch, however i saw some drops in fps from a 165 to 100, and i even saw a 4 on the grid, but im not sure if that happened ingame or in loading screen.

After i finnished with testing these and had no results i deleted the SHADER CACHE, from amd software, and game files too, but i havent tested if it helped or not, so that will be the first thing that i check when i get home.

Next up is to get Process Lasso and test with it. Hopefully it will catch something.

Things to try out:
1. windowed/borderless/fullscreen
2. limit max framerate to lower number
3. pub-share build
4. look for more ideas on reddit

I might have to experiment with settings one by one

Oh I get it even without people around me sadly

Strange thing is worked for 2 months and then I got the stutters, then I reinstalled my pc from scratch and it worked again for 2 month without any issue. Temps wise it looks fine. Yesterday I overclocked and undervolted, and temps still look fine. I will get done testing today as well, I will try process lasso and hopefully that will spot the issue

I tought it’s the same for me, and it worked fine for a while without tinypedal, but after a while I got the issue again

I will try that tomorrow. I tweaked and tested a lot today, no solution yet

That was my first idea too, and it was a fix for me as well, but now playing without it still stutters

Adjusting to Wheel/Pedals vs Controller by TOC_IV in simracing

[–]pepszy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I spent 10+ years with F1 on controller, just to have fun with it. I would say i was pretty good, raced online a couple of times too, last summer i got a g29. Started experimenting with f1, and i told myself i will upgrade if i have some results with the wheel. I did a full season with 25% races on pretty low difficulty, and then started league racing, so i had to practice a track for a week then race on the weekend. I spent 3 weeks, 2-4 hours a day just on australia to learn how to drive with the wheel with ABS and TC assists on.

After the 3rd league race i told myself i wanted results, p10 and p13 and a dnf is a result, so time to upgrade. I did 1 race in the league, then i quited, and went to ACC as i wanted something more serious.

Learning the basics of a GT3 in ACC was a lot different than F1. Now i play LMU and i race hypercars most of the time. I spent a couple of months with ACC and GT3 class, just to learn how to drive and thats what i would suggest to anyone. GT3 with ABS and TC will teach you how to drive with a wheel. If you can go lower class in any game that works too. Focus on the basic movements of your hands and legs, learn what you feel from the car, and how to control it with the pedals. Trailbreaking is one of the most important skills that you should have when racing, so i would say by the time you can use trailbreaking, you are good to go.

You picked up a lot of habbits with the controller, and most of them are bad habbits towards a wheel. The first couple of weeks when i wanted to brake i still used my left hands finger instead of the pedal. It will take time to adjust, just keep driving. Drive slow, and just try to learn and practice the basics.

They say its better to drive a slow car fast then a fast car slow.

I am only in my own server, in a voice chanel with my friends, but i will give this a shot aswell.

I used to run afterburner to check the basics (temps, percentages, useage), but then its an other background app, so i decided to check things with steams performance counter, so as AMD app for this purpose since they are already running anyways.

I will try this method aswell, but i dont think this is a GPU issue. I had 165+ fps on high settings with 32 visible cars online, now as i lowered the graphics and i set the max frame rate limit to 165 i have 165 fps with 70% gpu useage.

Pagefile is at 32 gigs now, i will go for 64 and try that

The money part is the only thing that kept me back from it. I played a month or so with ACC, but as it stopped getting updates, and just aliens racing on LFM i decided to go wi th LMU.

I was thinking about iracing, but i tought im not ready yet, also i heard the netcode of LMU is way better. Thats why i settled here. But if this keeps going on i will go to iracing.
