F1 2012 Stutter through corners. PC version.

Michael Llewellyn · Oct 18, 2012

Hi guys, i have noticed lately that with each patch the stuttering through corners is getting worse each time, Singapore demonstrates this the best.

I am using all the latest drivers and have a very healthy system for gaming.

Anyone else seeing the same problem through the corners in the game.

Ps , my settings are not over the top in game as well, very modest for what my system can handle.

Cheers.

from time to time i have the same problem..after the 7th patch it's been reduced though..

my game was fine but now after the latest patch i have serious problems the frame rate has dropped dramatically down to 22fps to 30fps seriously hampering my driving now not such a problem on the straights but in the corners i just cant judge properly anymore. ANd i have put the graphics as low as i can down to ultralow now ffs codemasters whats going on!!!!

Same issue. Noticed it today, pretty annoying. It's like it's loading some stuff but that doesn't make sense in my case - for one I'm having an SSD, so loading things happens more or less instantaneous. Also, 16GB RAM mean there should no need to load anything at all after the initial loading sequence.

Intel i7-3770 3.45GHz
ASUS P8Z77-V Pro
Corsair DDR3 PC3-12800 - 4 x 4 GB (16 GB) 1600 MHz - CAS9
Point Of View GTX680 2GB
OCZ Agility 3 - 60GB SSD - AGT3-25SAT3-60G
OCZ Agility 3 - 180GB SSD - AGT3-25SAT3-60G

Yes it's very annoying Tom, hope they can look into it shortly.

Cheers all.

Hope so. Kissed the wall at the last turn in Melbourne tonight, annoying. Until then: flashbacks for everyone!

I've installed my F1 and Steam on the HDD since there's an animation / set of waiting time during loading screens that an SSD could not remove.

I'm not experiencing any of those though.

Even with my measly setup of
i5 2500
8GB DDR3 1600
GTS 450
Seagate 7200.14 1TB (Game and Steam installed here)
120GB Corsair Force GT

I'm pretty sure it does, at least if you're going from the main menu to the track. It takes 1 or 2 seconds to load the track, the usual stats bars (fav. AI difficulty, laps etc.) isn't even fully visible before it's gone again.

Anyhow, I was afraid of what happened during 2011, SSDs with that game is useless IMO. And the game's UI is slow, SSD or HDD.

By the way, have you re-directed your replay folder thing? 2011 had this horrible 2GB replay file that my paranoia says I should move to HDD because it's eating up my SSD writes.
