    Just wondering if anyone has run this service. It's an autumn based service and along the route it is crippling itself on my pc. Not sure if its an Autumn thing but it seems to be among the tree sections and where into some of the tunnels.

    Just curious as I ran a service immediately before in the journey mode with 50-90fps throughout.
     
  2. Was there mist or fog ?

    Rain seems to substantially reduce fps on this route.

    I did this in journey mode a few days back and dont recall any major FPS issues on my run.

    Just checked the month in journey mode and its set to Dec for me.
     
  5. Lowering sky quality to very high gets me a xtra 30fps.

    I’m running sky rather than ultra and agree it gives you a lot of fps back (even though my gpu is only running at 49% on ultra and slowing up). There’s definitely some peculiarities.

    I do (confession time) have geloxo shadow ini installed but this is the only time I’ve seen it this bad. I wondered if autumn and lots of shadowy trees has bent me over, but then doing a near identical service straight after it ran between 45-90fps whole time.

    There’s something not right on this Kassel route, surely the below aren’t bending it that much??

    r.Shadow.MaxResolution=4096
    r.Shadow.MaxCSMResolution=4096
    r.Shadow.DistanceScale=2
    r.Shadow.TransitionScale=2
    r.Shadow.CSM.TransitionScale=2
    r.Shadow.CSMDepthBias=8 <-- optional setting
    r.Shadow.CSMShadowDistanceFadeoutMultiplier=0.1
    r.Shadow.RadiusThreshold=0.005
     
  7. Running vanilla the sky quality fog rain or snow kills performance on that route, at high speed it's a lot worse. And yes I notice passing trees hits the performance. All routes I get top performance on ultra settings apart from this route and training centre. I have to lower the settings.

    This is what I'm seeing. It seems bloody silly that you have to faff about between routes
     
  9. Yeah it's not ideal.
