Wolves of Steel graphics/resolution patch question.

fastfed · 08-02-15, 10:28 PM

Just installed this mega mod, very nice from what I can see real quick.

Without doing the resolution mod, just the wolves of steel and the patch only, I running it 1440P @60fps.. I went into the CFG and changed the FPS to 100, does this game even support that FPS? I'm getting about 80-100fps and it does look smoother, just don't know if the game even supports that refresh rate?
and what does the resolution patch even do? do I need it?
Thanks

edit** so what is the deal with the lag spikes?? every 10-15 seconds massive frame drop, from 100 down to 30 back to 100.. Its horrible, making the game hard to play.

any ideas ?? thanks

Try antilag . Put both files in the SH5 main game folder and set fps to 32 fps .

32 FPS?? Wow, and here I was worried 60fps was too low.
I guess its not a FPS game, but 32 FPS sounds so low.

can I do 40 FPS?

Why do you forcing 100 FPS if your monitor can only show 60 FPS?

my monitor goes much higher than 60fps

I fixed FPS to 29 in Nvidia Inspector. Why more than 25-30 FPS? Your eyes don´t detect more than 20-25...

BTW, if I leave free the FPS, I obtain 60 FPS. Not a problem of hardware.

Best regards.

Thanks for you help, but no joy.. I'm still getting horrible horrible micro stutters.. now FPS locked at 32, but drops to 15-20fps with every 5 or 6 movements.. its horrible.

something has to be causing it within the mod ??
Should I put the resolution patch on it? what does that even do or whats it for?

is it because of my resolution of 2560*1440 ? I dont get it

fastfed · 08-09-15, 01:23 PM

really?? no on can help? or does no one ever have this issue?

still, game is very unplayable ..

is it the resolution?

have you enabled the FPS counter (ctrl +F8) to see if the stutters are triggered by anything in particular.

I have a pretty similar issue, normal FPS on max settings bounces between around 30-60 but when I'm on the surface during high waves I get stutters like you mention. basically every time the bow completes a downward heave I drop to 13-16FPS momentarily, very noticable as it makes the waves look like jiggling jello. (not as jello-esque as SH4 but still)

Also if there's enough flooding/damage in Central to where you get a heavy fog/mist effect in the air, my FPS grinds to a crawl and I can barely even pause the game and maneuver the menu. (mouse cursor lags)

My system should be more than capable to handle that so I'm interested to see if your issues are similar. (though I run at 1920x1080) I'll take a look at antilag though once I finish this patrol.

edit: also, I believe the TWOS resolution patches are just to increase the resolution of the in-game optics (peri, RAOBF, etc.) for increase precision and visual quality
