Busy little bees at S3 recently. I can't remember the last time R3E saw so many patches in so short a time. Great that they're fixing these things immediately rather than leaving them for major patches. :thumbsup:


Great to see, some great talent in the studio.
Looking at those screenshots i want my R3E to look as good, i have a high spec PC but im guessing there are specific settings to make it look so good?
AMS1 is the same, some settings in nvidia control panel totally changed the visual quality, would love to track down something similar for R3E.
 
I'm favouring R3E with my time at the moment since a few of physics updates. I love the feeling of weighting and unweighting they've got down over rises and dips.

The only thing I'm not so sure about is I can hardly ever save the rear like I can in just about every other sim. Having never driven a really stiff race car on slicks I don't know how it goes in real life but maybe stuff like AC and AMS2 are too forgiving?

I honestly dont understand that.
Im running Raceroom on an oldie system(Xeon 5670/GTX 1060) and it looks extremely good.
And compared to ACC also extremely sharp.:roflmao:
Im able to run with almost highest settings in Raceroom - exept the shadows.
Im also running an oldie nvidia driver 391.01
So.. it must be some of your settings.:thumbsup:

Hi Bruno its not a case of just clicking highest settings, in AMS1 highest settings look ok but once you tweak specific control panel settings it looks so much nicer and sharper .
Im just curious if i can do the same in R3E.

Actually i found what i was looking for hidden away in my old bookmarks,,, i knew deep down there was something :)

I run it on a 1060 too, and in monitor mode it does indeed look very good. Pretty much like the screenshots above, and with every setting on maximum. Not so much in VR but that's to be expected. I just lower a few settings and apply 1.2 supersampling and it looks great there too. A hell of a lot sharper than the aforementioned ACC. ;)

Strangely, I always run shadows on max settings both in and out of VR and never seem to have any performance issues. This is despite many people with better systems than mine having problems on anything above low/medium. Weird.

No no I did understand this.:thumbsup:
But Im allways surprised if people with highend systems cannot get Raceroom to look good.
Or rather extremely good - when I on my 10year old system is a happy camper (graphic wise :) ).

CatsAreTheWorstDogs: I did follow your rF2 link and can see there is a discussion about 8xQ/4x SGSS vs 4x DSR.
Where the conclusion is that 4x DSR looks better but is too demanding fps-wise.
On my system 4x DSR runs acceptable (because 20" 1680x1050) but the small menus and specially the mouse movement is unbearable.:rolleyes:
 
@dcully have a look at the nvidia settings.
For me a huge performance boost was:
disabling v-sync there
and
setting energysomething (mine is in german Energieverwaltungsmodus) to maximum (Maximale Leistung)

This way i get about 40fps 1080p on close to max settings with 20 cars.
With an i5 660 and an gtx 1050ti

Havent further tested, but some guys told disabling the time advancement helps also ( i have it off )

Sorry for typos ect. removing since two days the wallpaper in our corridor -_-

@dcully

Here is what you must change to have RaceRoom at his best looking!
Nvidiainspector.exe
Make a new profile 32 or 64 bit .exe and change thes values in the lines!

Have fun!!
