I thought that it could be a incompatibility with dx9, since assetto corsa is dx11 and is runing well...

So I downloaded 3dmark06 to use the dx9 benchmark, and it seems that it's just fine, the nvidia inspector says that the gpu was using 100%, not like LFS...

LFS won't push your GPU to the limit, ~60 % load on the GPU is in fact more than I'd expect. There are lots of possibilities but I'd first try to check that your CPU is not clocking down too aggressively when you're playing LFS.

I alreadly checked that, as stated at #8 post of this thread

If you're getting same performance regardless of the AI drivers on the track it looks like it's the rendering performance that's the bottleneck, not the CPU. I believe that at least on nVidia GPUs you can force "Maximum Performace" mode instead of "Adaptive Mode" which will prevent the GPU from clocking down under light load. It might be interesting to check if that makes any difference.

I alreadly forced that yesterday

I tried now with original clocks, and 19 AI drivers at blackwood, the loss on performance is almost imperceptible (from ~44fps to ~42fps)

I overlocked the GPU, and got around 4 fps more at LFS, and 20fps more at assetto corsa...




look at the GPU usage @ assetto corsa (but it still says 0mb usage)

No, my FPS is capped at 100, and it's not on battery

the FPS don't stay fixed at 44, it goes up and down depending the part of the track... I tried turning off the AA for example, with the HD4400 it went to 100fps (capped) and with gt840m it was around 70fps Oo

Forcing it to use the HD4400 the CPU stays at 2300~2400mhz

Forcing it to use the gt840m the CPU goes from 2000 to 2900mhz while doing a lap at blackwood alone

While forcing the HD4400, it shows no usage, as you can see from the middle to the left:



but forcing the gt840m, it uses ~63% of the GPU as you can see from the middle to the right

Let me guess.. Windows 8.1?

Hell no, it came with Windows 8.1, but the first thing I made was to format and install Windows 7 SP1

Quote from 1303s_vortech :

Did you tried something like this?

Yes, indeed I did it, as you can see on the graphics settings, the first one shows that I was forcing the integrated graphics card, and on the second I was forcing the gt840m (you can read at the very bottom of the settings screens)

Recently I bought a new notebook with the following specs:

i7 4510u 2ghz (with HD4400 onboard)
8gb ram 1600mhz
gt840m 2gb


and I went to test LFS, and got some weird FPS...

with the onboard GPU:



The graphics settings i'm using (notice the HD graphics listed there)

the performance:

https://hostr.co/file/O3T6LQXJlvKy/FPSHD4200.PNG (44.4fps)



now with the gt840m:



and the performance:

https://hostr.co/file/xww8RBskNXO1/FPSgt840m.PNG (43.4fps)

look at the usage on nVidia inspector:




I never had a notebook with dedicated graphics card, is it normal to show 0mb usage?



I also tested Assetto Corsa, and it uses 100% of the GPU and get around 80fps (with low graphics and 1280x720)

I know there are some users here that have Lumia's, and I hope they can help me on this:

I used my Nokia N8 to record in my car, using the program SymDVR: http://store.ovi.com/content/327487

After using it as a DVR for almost 3 years, it recently died for no apparent reason...

So I'm thinking on using my GF's old phone, an Lumia 710, as my new DVR...

But after a quick search, I didn't find any good app for this...


So... Is there an app for WP7.8 that records like a DVR?

"This video is not available, sorry :/"

I use almost the lowest setting possible, but even with this, my FPS vary from 90 (limited) to less than 30 while playing online...

Just to let everyone know, before you start fiddling with your rigs. The True Black Smearing is the DK2's hardware/screen issue and it was recognised by Oculus devs. There is currently software patch in development to minimise the effect with future software/SDK release.

Check out this link to read more about it

Indeed, people with samsung devices that has super amoled can test and see by them selves that it's a hardware/screen issue

You just need a screen you can slide up and down, and have at least one part that is 100% black, and slide it up and down, it's pretty noticiable on my S4 i9505

Guys, another question, I have my G27 set to 900 degrees, and ingame set to 900 degrees too...


But depending on the car, the game automatically "reduce" the rotation to sync to the car, but it only sync the rotation, not the FFB limiter...


For example even NFS Shift 2, that is a bad game with horrible FFB, if you put 900 degrees on profiler and in game, the game automatically put a FFB limiter on 400 degrees if the car turns 400 degrees...


But on assetto corsa, if your car turns like 270 degrees, you can turn your wheel until you hit the physical limiter, while the ingame wheel is locked at 270 degrees, so you have 630 useless degrees that makes recovering from oversteer pretty hard...


Am I using any wrong settings, or the game is just like this?

I bought assetto yesterday, and I need some help regarding the multiplayer...


I tried playing online yesterday, and there was like 5 servers that were "full" for about 4 hours, and I noticed even it was showing 30/30 clients for example, if I clicked on it, it said 0/30 players on server, or something like that...


then I found a server that was like with 11/16 clients, when I entered it, there was like 20 players on track...


what exactly that "clients" thing means?

this game seems to be a lot of fun, I'm playing it for about 2 hours now, but I can't play online, at least I don't find any server, don't know if nobody is playing online, or I'm doing something wrong

Great video!

Can somebody explain to me why these rally drivers use such low revs?
