Still get cpu occupancy 99%

[Pawgy]

even after changing this setting (you need to open the "controls.ini" file, and set the "FF_SKIPS_STEPS" value to "4".) I still get cpu occupancy 99% and it is a royal pain. Will there ever be a fix? BTW I dont even use ffb in game.

Not far from my own specs ... i5-4670k and same GPU and 21/9 34" monitor but only 8gb ram .... and no problem ( mostly 20 AI at max ) with Sol 1.3.1 with CSP 183 ( as I don't test the beta versions ).

One thing you might look at and unactivate .... as I had a very hard blow for the fps ( but not CPU alerts ) is in Content Manager/Settings/Custom Shaders Patch/extraFX ....
Unactivate it if you use it and have a test.

While in CM ... do you use the CPU and GPU optimizations ? ...

NB all this although you might have problems with Win10 updates as mentioned above .... AC with AI has a big impact on CPU ... so if this one is already used too much with this Win10 update ... no wonder you get this CPU alert especially in AC with many AIs

I5 6500 with 8gb of RAM, gtx960 4gb running a single 2560x1080 screen here, and can comfortably race against 24 AI with everything on high(ish)

Are you sure it is not that Windows Cortana/SearchUI update, I think it is.
On the other hand if wanting to test always run the game without any mods or graphic injectors like Reshade. So try a run without CM, SOL or whatever so calling improvement software, just pure the basic game.

Alright, I will play around with it and give you a response when I have the time.

Thanks for the help

After doing a test. The 24h nurburgring full 23 cars in the gt3 class and on vanilla. I get the error but my cpu usage tells otherwise

(UPDATE)
I ran the game on the vanilla launcher same track and cars and no error. I also looked into the windows update and I didn't see any of the update options they told to uninstall in the links given.

 

[Jempy]

So ... comparing your 2 latest posts ... it seems the problem lies rather in CM, CSP ....
No error in vanilla launcher while there's an error, as it seems when reading your post, using CM launcher ?
If correct, you know now where to search.

 

[TorpTheTorpedo]

So it is the shaders mod that causes the problem. Even with the optimizations it still gives the error. still don't get how it worked for almost half the year till recently...

 

[TorpTheTorpedo]

(UPDATE) So I did find a sorta workaround. on an old form, I found that if I set the processor affinity to all cores the error goes away. the only downside it resets to only running CPU 2 and 3. not sure how to keep it on all 4 cores?

 

[Vintagedriver01]

If you want to set affinity on a quad core then you could use http://www.koma-code.de/ CPU-control. That is btw only working on max 4 cores max.
Process Hacker Nightly or System Explorer, could also be an option only more complex and recourse eating.

Looks like I'm gonna have assetto corsa working for awhile till I can make the money to upgrade. Thanks for all your help

I went from an highly overclocked i7-7700k (5,1Ghz) to an i7-9700k and this CPU is at stock speed perfect to handle AC.
But I must admit I’m not using any mod like CM or SOL anymore, only Simhub for an chair-shaker.

 

[Jempy]

Or simply any process manager as Bill2's Process Manager or Process Lasso
The 1st is the one I use for GTR2 for years ....
As I'm still working on mods for GTR2, this process manager is often on for tests .... and is mostly still working when driving AC. ( maybe it does better using all cores than AC alone ... but I'm no expert in those matters ).

 

[Vintagedriver01]

An warning about Process Lasso, this is an typical software that is become fat, so it will eat you precious PC performance. I think the same pitfall is going to count for CM, Simhub and other handy software, it all becomes full of nice-to-have things, to complex so adjustment failures are being made or it will be an resource eating hog.
The English members do have great words that explains it all I think, LESS IS MORE or KISS (keep it simple stupid).

 

[Jempy]

In this present case, I wonder what are his settings in game .... he's encountering problems that I and @Fat-Alfie don't with +- the same kind of config .... not overclocked at my side .... overclocked at his side.

Rather surprising sometimes that with the same kind of config .... some have many problems while others have not.

Not sure, according to what I sometimes read, that AC and ACC are really working better or even as good with overclocking.

OK with your LESS IS MORE ... as this is mostly true.... but often true also that with AC for some encountered problems it's difficult or impossible sometimes to find the reason ... which seems hidden and not obvious to find somewhere in PC.

 

[Vintagedriver01]

Thats the problems with computer hardware and VR HS, the same pitfall here, when just copy/paste others adjustments that "should bring the best performance or eye-candy" Yep we all fall in this trap and without PROPER testing thinking that must be the right adjustment.

idk i am getting the same sh*t as before i have reinstalled windows i tweaked all of these gaming setting nothing worked

 

[Renato Gaete Riquelme]

Something similar happens to me, the cpu at 99%, reinstall everything from 0 and when launching AC with the CM the problem is generated, reviewing in render stats, I noticed that the PHY point is always over 80% reaching 120%, launching the AC from steam, this value does not rise than 20%

any idea what may be causing the problem?

pd: sorry for my english but use google xd

I did not have this problem with my Ryzen 5 3600 the problem appeared when I used Counter manager CM. and I'm sure this is the cause of the problem
