F1 2013 Rubbered In Track

Yawama · Oct 10, 2013

I would like some help guys.

I stole this image from another thread

My game does not rubber in like that, even with max settings. It hasn't rubbered in like that since 2010, and I haven't got it working since.

For guys who do get the rubbering in track, can you post your specs/game settings? I'd love to see this effect.

and your racing-line looks like in the pic posted in the first post?

It does

and my old processor was a QX 6850. I never had the rubber or drying lines with that one.

how many frames do you get on average when playing f1 2013 ?

Phil Ciborowski · Oct 19, 2013

Right now its locked to 60 and I have an LG TV as a monitor (if that matters).
It will run upwards of 122 tho if i unlock it.

To be sarcastic a bit, you could get 60FPS out of this 30FPS with Cheat Engine. But game would be 1/2 slower. Thanx for solution lawyer and steffen. I like rubbed in line.

could you take a pic for me next time you play and have the racing-line appear (optimal case would be after at least 7 laps or so)!thx in advance

yeah! capped the frames at 30 with dxtory, and the rubbered line appears! also the puddels in wet weather... without frame-limiting no line appeard...

I'm not sure if the drying line coincides with the rubbering in effect, but I just had a race at Suzuka that went from wet to dry, and i got the drying line.
First time i've had a wet dynamic race, so it's the first time i've seen it. It looks great if its any constellation.

I've had the rubbered in effect come and go, so not sure if this is the same.

My Specs:
Windows 7
Intel Core 2 Duo E8600 3.34Ghz
8GB Corsair Vengeance RAM
Radeon HD 6870 XFX
750W PSU
Logitech G27

"I'm not sure if the drying line coincides with the rubbering in effect....."

Yes, it should. At least, that is my understanding of the coding. I am not sure if Steffan agrees as we came to our different work-arounds entirely separately (but oddly at nearly exactly the same time!)

great minds think alike! haha

I have drying line or racing line when rain becomes stronge with 60FPS, no rubber in line with 60FPS only with 30FPS or one core.

..and if my understanding of the code is correct then that is how it will stay unless/until CM resolve the issue as it arises from the exe which I cannot alter.

Gfxmaniac · Oct 20, 2013

I like your effort and solution you have provided. Hopefully CM will do their job. This is just bad job from them. 3 years in the row.

sneakygloworm · Oct 20, 2013

My rubber line only starts and ends at corners only. Very blotchy and very dark after only 3 or 4 laps. Starts and ends really abruptly.

+1 on the work around though.

I've tried to use only one core but with no results...
Is there any solution for this?
I have na intel i7 4770K and an ati 7970

No, assuming you are starting the game and then killing the other 3 cores then the game will continue to try to run on workermap4 but there will be no threads active and it will turn into a slide show and, eventually, crash.

If you are disabling all but one core in the bios then you are running on 2 threads (assuming you have hyper threading enabled) and it will run very badly.

All the above aside, why are you doing any of this...just limit your frame rate to 30 fps, that can be done in a number of ways on an ati card.

Strahil Kotlarov · Oct 21, 2013

Just for the record,i`ve tried instead of limiting my framerate to 30,to deselect the affinity of of the other 3 cores and the hyperthreaded ones.
And guess what the result was,
Less than 30 fps constant lag spikes and the sound was really bad.

SO it appears i was mistaken - the marks on the track i was seeing are not the rubbering in line... it was just the track texture. Guess i was over excited.

Oh and that screen shot in the first post- not sure we should all be looking to get the marks that dark.. there is some sort of light mod enabled on it. Look at the sky in that shot, and the one i had made from the same track under clear conditions...

They arent close... and im guessing that in my haste, the fact that the first shot had a mod, the disregarded the color change had me thinking i was seeing the same thing..

long story short- i was wrong. sorry.

Yawama · Oct 21, 2013

There is a mod in the first shot, but once you limit FPS to 30 it does get that dark, with or without a lighting mod.

Edit: picture without a lighting mod, at lap 7 or 8: http://cloud-4.steampowered.com/ugc/828953209087408913/2516E3887EF07A75043F56D7070033D1ADD5D8A3/

no problem! but its irrelevant if the guy from the first picture is using a gfx mod, because my unmodded game looks the same when applying the 30 frames limit! i just wanted to show you and others who think they have the racing line appearing that they are not getting the "real" thing!
