Strange effect

Hi,

 

Sure this is the right section, tell me if not.

 

When i drive through booth tunnel, every 5 seconds or so the environment (tunnel) seems to stop moving whilst the car carries on doing so. It isnt asif everything stops it just seems to be out of balance with the speed of the car.

 

This does not happen anywhere else in the game

 

Hope somebody knows what i mean.

What?

 

When you enter the tunnel you get an FPS boost, like you're inside a house's interior. The "world" (Liberty City) is somehow not loaded, or only uses lod textures. This is why you think your car goes faster, or something else. If it's something else please describe your problem a bit more precise. turn.gif

sorry lol

 

right- when i am in any other tunnel, there is a fps boost. But this isnt a boost, its really difficult to describe but is really annoying.

 

It is as though it is "rocking" in effect. Like a stutter in fps, but the car keeps moving.

 

Sorry it is really hard to describe

 

Arski: it is simliar but it doesnt freeze it seems to slow down then speed up, not changes in fps i know that. Because in other little tunnels there is a fps boost but nothing like booth tunnel

Most likely a texture error on R* behalf or you're getting an FPS boost.

 

The less objects like vehicles, buildings and people the more FPS you will get because the less your computer has to process.

Yes i understand that smile.gif This is why i have created a topic becuase it is not simliar to a fps boost due to the less calculations being made at one time.

 

It is simliar to inertia. That describes it best

 

However, i suppose i can live with it smile.gif

 

thanks for the replies

Congratulations, you managed to make a black hole in he Booth Tunnel in GTA IV where you travel though time and space.

 

(Record it with Fraps! biggrin.gif)

lol now I get it. So the tunnel actually acts like it was moving for a really short amount of time. Hm very strange I hope it'll never occur to me. I love cruising in tunnels, especially when there's a sh*tload of car and I'm with a convertible smile.gif

CHOPPER IN THE TUNNELS FOR THE WIN !!!!!!!!

 

Sorry... I don't wanna spam.. just seemed funny to me. And I'm looking for someone who has the same issue as me, which is disco-dancing water reflections... yeeeah, hard to describe too. Happened since the new Nvidia patch release... 185.85... sigh.
