RDRC : BTB stages comments thread

[Rick Bamford]

I am opening this thread as somewhere where we can all make comments and solve problems concerning the BTB stages used in the RDRC.

 

[Simone Demi]

I have seen that Torvaniemi don't run clearly for me....it's too slow...I can't drive in this conditions....there are'nt other with this problem?

 

[Robb Kulcsar]

Yep, I had this problem, didn't fix it untill I changed my video card. The old one was outdated and nothing could fix the problem, no driver update, nothing. Maybe you have other kind of problem , but 99% you have to upgdare your video card.

 

[Simone Demi]

I have an Nvidia GeForce 8800 GTS...soon I will change it,but not before the race...I will try to make the stage but i don't know with wich time I can end it...it's so difficult to drive in this conditions...however the solutions that Rick had said for me it's ok,I have no problem with it...

 

[Warren Dawes]

Simone, try running the Stage with your graphics level or screen resolution turned down, maybe it will be smoother.

 

[Łukasz Demolin]

Huh, it's weird, this kind of card should be enough to drive all the stages smoothly. Most of the people complaining about BTB stages have way crappier really old hardware.

 

[Simone Demi]

I tried to turn down the screen resolution,but there's no good results....I continue to have the same problem....

 

[Robb Kulcsar]

Here is a little program that shows your video card capabilities, just run it, don't have to install it, make a print screen and then will compare to mine or other, to see how bad or good is your hardware.

[Simone Demi]

Thank you Rob here is the screen of my video card...

 

[Robb Kulcsar]

Simone I give up , actually your card should be better than mine and still you can't run Trievaniemi and I can :frown:. Any other ?

 

[Christen Struys]

dis i mine i dont now if it gd video card is i am en noob about pc

 

[Simone Demi]

Ok maybe I have some other problem taht I don't know on my computer...it's a shame because I like this stage,it's very beautyfull....

 

[Łukasz Demolin]

I presume you've updated your drivers, got rid of unnecessary programs, run a defragmentation service on you system/game drive not too long ago etc.? It would be a shame if we missed the opportunity to run this stage, I was really looking forward to it. It has a unique style to it, really different from most of the other RBR stages. Maybe you could try to look for a solution a bit longer, there is still plenty of time to cancel the stage.

 

[Damien Jones]

Those having framerate issues; what CPUs do you have in your PCs? I suspect this may have more of an effect than the gfx card.

Yes I have the last drivers and now I had cleaned all the System but the problem still remain...I don't know what can be....I will drive in the stage anyway...it's difficoult but I can do it

 

[Damien Jones]

Simone, try running the stage at a low resolution. I got a 10 frames per second increase by dropping it to 640x480. It ain't pretty but it's better that 20fps.

Click this:


Then change to this:


Hopefully that might help.
My PC is a 'mighty' Athlon X2 4200+ with a nVidia 9600GT and I get an average of 30fps on this stage....just enough to make it driveable.

 

[Simone Demi]

Thank You Damien,but in my case it is not a graphic problem....at 640 x 480 resolution I still have the same problem...

I wanted to practice today and I have a problem to run BTB stages. Every time I want to launch this stages it does not start with such error: "BTBStages1 File absent !".

I tried to reinstall, unistall and install again and all the time I cannot run it. England stages work perfectly. Did I miss something to install? I install RBR, patches 01 and 02, RSRBR 2010, updates 03 to 08 and all_packs install.

Please help

Like the message says, you need to install the BTB Stage pack. Sorry, I haven't posted the link in the first post, I'll add it now.

Thanks Senad, it works now, but I have the same problem as Simone with Torvaniemi. My videocard is NVidia GeForce 9500GT and other stages work fine.

I have seen that Torvaniemi don't run clearly for me....it's too slow...I can't drive in this conditions....there are'nt other with this problem?
