Formula Truck 2013

Ian Anderson · Apr 19, 2015

Well just tried with Force alternate frame rendering at Santa Cruz Do Sul and got a constant locked 120fps all way round but no more than 20% usage on both GPU's.

Again around Buenos Aires fps halfed going along the pit straight.

At moment for me it seems to bve better working off one GPU but I will have a go with Nvidia Inspector again.

Most useage using single GPU is about 70%

It shouldn't matter that my SLI GPU's are more powerful but I can only assume I'm getting more benefit because my GPU demand is much higher due to higher resolution and 4xSGSSAA.

Well I turned Vysnc off and both GPU"s hit around 70% useage each and was upto 300fos on the back straight at Buenos Aires.

What cards have you got in SLI if you don't mind me asking.

Very nice.

Does time now progress in Formula Truck? I've had the impression this is the case since the update. If it does, is there a way to turn this off (as it's resource heavy, in GSC it is)?

Nice update, changed FOV back to 50 as instructed, but seems like I'm almost sitting on the floor of the truck, really low position, barely able to see over the wheel.
I know I can change it (and did) but newcomers might not know and think "this is horrible!".

Tempted to buy it just for the Salvador streetcircuit.. Visited there many times.

To me its slightly less resource heavy than GSCE. Uses the same engine but I think its a few updates behind in graphic features.

I use FOV 50 on Formula Truck and GSCE. I prefer it. The truck steering wheel can get in the way in of your view in Formula Truck, but you can disable the steering wheel in the graphics options.

Hi Blkout,
You know of a way of turning off time progression?

Yes, that's right - the game is from 2013 and yet two years later Reiza are still releasing free updates when they have no obligation to do so.

I know how it must be annoying to settle on gaming licenses but two years without any updates is already a lot for a lender that has everything to grow with a job that for me is the most beautiful !! The way is to wait even

Is anyone running the sim with SLI set up?

I'm using a GTX 690 and see that only one GPU is being used.

How do you know only one GPU is being used? IS there a plugin / program for that?

Ian Anderson · Apr 21, 2015

MSI Afterburner.

There's options to monitor all sorts of things. I have it runing in top left hand corner to monitor my GPU's useage, temp and fan speed. Also my CPU temp plus framerates.

I am using T500RS with FrexGP pedal and I mapped the pedals in the controller menu as usual.
However I got the engine stalling after switched to 1st gear even the clutch pedal was fully depressed. I needed to press deeply the throttle to prevent stalling. I used to think it was dead zone/saturation issue. I searched the web for the solution and trial and error adjusting value in controller.ini but no luck.

Actually I got the same issue in GSCE.

I performed some tests yesterday and when it was at 3rd gear or above, the RPM meter went to max when I depressed the clutch and throttle at the same time. If I released the clutch (while keep depressing throttle), the RPM meter returned to its normal value. That meant the game detected the depressing of the clutch pedal.

I repeated the test with 1st and 2nd gear, the RPM meter didn't go to max when I depressed the clutch and throttle at the same time, meaning that the game might not detect the depressing of clutch pedal.

Any suggestion to resolve the issue? Thanks in advance.
