RedIndianRobin 2,938 Posted November 19, 2019 Share Posted November 19, 2019 Settings is now accessible in main menu. Oh no not again. It reset all the graphics settings again! WTF COCKSTAR. 3 Link to post Share on other sites
Spider-Vice 43,577 Posted November 19, 2019 Author Share Posted November 19, 2019 Make a backup of your settings.xml and bin files before updating. When it resets just restore them I guess. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
adigyran 3 Posted November 19, 2019 Share Posted November 19, 2019 (edited) this is a bad idea, because they might add new setting and possibly crash the game due to different settings Edited November 19, 2019 by adigyran 1 Link to post Share on other sites

I wonder what useless feature that nobody will run because it sucks up far too much performance for very little visual return we got this time. Link to post Share on other sites

Also DeepSurface settings is set to High now instead of ultra in settings.xml. 2 Link to post Share on other sites

BlackScout 7,039 Posted November 19, 2019 Share Posted November 19, 2019 Just make a backup of the file before starting it up. Then set it all over again. Link to post Share on other sites
GN 92 3,742 Posted November 19, 2019 Share Posted November 19, 2019 I hope they fix the f*cking random crashes. Link to post Share on other sites
RedIndianRobin 2,938 Posted November 19, 2019 Share Posted November 19, 2019 Holy sh*t. Quick benchmark. Got 4-5 fps boost especially in St.Denis. FPS is much more stable. 3 Link to post Share on other sites
Spider-Vice 43,577 Posted November 19, 2019 Author Share Posted November 19, 2019 Set my settings as before, seems to be running the same, just fine as before, so no performance loss or anything. Link to post Share on other sites
RedIndianRobin 2,938 Posted November 19, 2019 Share Posted November 19, 2019 I am hitting 50 FPS on average now. 2 Link to post Share on other sites

Just because you don't use it and can't run it, that doesn't mean it's useless. Link to post Share on other sites
MeatSafeMurderer 1,340 Posted November 19, 2019 Share Posted November 19, 2019 I'm about a minute into the benchmark and performance hasn't improved. I wasn't expecting them to pull magical improvements out of their ass but a fix for Pascal being dogsh*t and underperforming would be appreciated. (Although that might be on NVIDIA) Link to post Share on other sites

(Although that might be on NVIDIA) It's Nvidia fault, same with Maxwell. Radeons, even RX 470 are faster than 1060 3 Link to post Share on other sites

I can run it, I just choose not to because it sucks up 5-7FPS and unless I am playing Tree Inspection Simulator 2020 I can't tell the difference. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
RedIndianRobin 2,938 Posted November 19, 2019 Share Posted November 19, 2019 First impressions, I am really happy with the slight FPS boost even though it is 4-5. I'll take it. Now am off to play. 3 Link to post Share on other sites
Spider-Vice 43,577 Posted November 19, 2019 Author Share Posted November 19, 2019 It's either better or the same at the same settings in Valentine for me. Will have to test more later, waiting on a change log to see what's happening. Link to post Share on other sites

Again, it's not useless just because you don't use it. I use it and it looks so good. It's the best update to the game since it released.

A curse in disguise. 😛 3 Link to post Share on other sites
DEADWOODZ 7,884 Posted November 19, 2019 Share Posted November 19, 2019 Yeah, fps is much more stable around towns such as Valentine now. Getting around 45fps. Specs: GTX 1070 I5 4760k oc'd @4.4ghz 16gb ram resolution: 2560x1440 4 Link to post Share on other sites
Nagru87 2 Posted November 19, 2019 Share Posted November 19, 2019 got a better fps in test with same setting ultra-high before patch was 52fps avarage now 56fps 2 Link to post Share on other sites
Spider-Vice 43,577 Posted November 19, 2019 Author Share Posted November 19, 2019 I did notice Valentine seemed to be faster but it could be the weather conditions on my 1060. It was like very close to a stable 60 FPS at the same settings as before. Link to post Share on other sites
Blendi- 675 Posted November 19, 2019 Share Posted November 19, 2019 So what changed? I cant find the new patch notes Link to post Share on other sites
Spider-Vice 43,577 Posted November 19, 2019 Author Share Posted November 19, 2019 This one was released earlier so the patch notes must be coming later. Link to post Share on other sites

My performance is quite a bit better though. I was getting occasional dips into the low 50s before, now my lowest dips are mid 50s. Valentine in particular seems to be performing a lot better. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
MeatSafeMurderer 1,340 Posted November 19, 2019 Share Posted November 19, 2019 Running the benchmark to completion I got the exact same results as before. Nothing outside margin of error. Had a quick run around and didn't notice any differences either. Be interesting to know where the boost that some people are seeing is coming from. Link to post Share on other sites

Could have to do with 4 core CPUs which were an issue? I have a 6 core/12 thread CPU so my "improvements" might have to do with the weather being overcast and thus rendering less shadows. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
