Well, I solved my memory leak issue. By turning off the only Nvidia Gameworks feature I used; TurfEffects. Now the game uses a total of 5.4 GB and it's solid. Spoiler: Bad MS paint edit of it
Yeah, now it is. I did have to disable TurfEffects though, but after I did that. All memory issues I had went away.
But did it go over 10GB? Mine stopped ~ 10-11GB in demo, ROTR can use 10-12GB too, but only on my old 780GTX.. @Netherwind when I tested the biggest impacts are shadows @ max, 7-10 fps difference, this is with nvshadows lib.. @ high and nvshadows off it looked around the same more softer look, but still detailed. TAA, 10-12fps, but I couldn't disable it at lower resolution, looked so bad with just FXAA, I was already @DSR 1620p and still.. hairworks, if its anything like by the benchmark then 10-20fps impact by those animals. turf only 1-3fps, expected more, but I knew it wouldn't be demanding and how it looked... I mean AVP2010 had better foliage interaction then this
I'm curious also because 64-67c is't much for a CPU under load. TJmax for most CPUs these days is about 100, and throttling doesn't occur typically until around 90c. I agree with Anxious_f0x, 1.42 (assuming you meant 1.42 and not 4.2) vcore is pretty high unless you are pushing a really hefty OC. My 8700k is at 4.9ghz at only 1.29vcore.. Silicon lottery is different for all CPUs but I can't imagine you have it that bad..
Lol ! I meant 1.45v down to 1.43v. Its and old fx 8120 btw,believe it or not the game is actually running pretty damn well,lowest dip i had so far was around 35.While roaming it hovers between 50 - 60 having everything maxed out but all the nvidia stuff disabled except hairworks which doesnt seem to have any impact on my fps at all.My old cpu keeps surprising me with every new title i throw at it,this is honestly the first one where i had to turn my oc down.
Ah, well honestly I don't keep up with the fx series and don't know too much about them. Those settings on a modern Intel don't sound right but for all I know it's perfect on that AMD chip I had a 3700k for the longest time and only upgraded recently because I was giving my old system to my closest friend and that gave me a good excuse to move on.. so I completely understand where you are coming from. You don't really need to keep updating your CPU these days if you are going for typical gaming (1080p) and don't care too much about the new motherboard features, especially if you overclock a lot.
My game keeps resetting my audio sample rate! Setting to 24bit 96khz for example. Start game, tab out, its back to 16bit 44khz (default). Demo was all ok. So whats up with that!? Super annoying! Change it again, tab back in, tab out again, again reset to default!
I played the demo but couldn't turn up graphics over default which would cause it to crash. Also couldn't figure out how to turn on the first person mode which the game advertises as a new feature for PC. lies. Overall the graphics aren't nothing to write home about, looks better in screenshots. Production quality is good though.
But now you know how to switch to 1st person mode? If not on pad l3+r3. Also saying this when standing still. For pc saying too why not. If not look controls. Simple.
"this is with nvshadows lib.. @ high and nvshadows off" ? You are playing at DSR 1620p? I'm running Shadows at High and it looks fine. TAA does indeed do wonders for this game but is taxing like you say. Fur: I haven't met many hairy animals yet But I'll make sure to turn it off Turf: Just 1-3fps? For me it shaved off almost 10fps at 4K
The first proper mod for the game has been released; FFXV Mini-Mod: Resource Mgmt. Performance And its a performance improvement mod that improves loading times, stuttering and HD texture streaming. Gonna give it a go for the included fix for excessive SteamAPI overhead that causes unusually long load screens and hitches during heavy texture streaming. Spoiler: Mod Screenshot EDIT; Special K - v 0.9.8 [Final Fantasy XV SteamAPI Overhead Reduction] Official steam group where the latest mod version can be found & tracked.
Never heard of him, and can't say I care much for drama. Just thought I'd share a mod with some performance benefits, at least it seems better than a crowbar mod.
Great! This might be interesting to try. Looks like the NieR:Automata one btw. What happened with him?
