Okay, I don't use G-Sync myself, but I've heard quite some other people having problems with it activated
together with this scheme. Can you please test the following and if's not working properly, you can always
go back.

1. Disable G-Sync in NCP and also in monitor if there's a setting for it there too.
2. In config.cfg change uset r_mode_refresh to "0" from "144".
3. In NPI set the following.

Code: Select all

Vertical Sync ---------------------------- '1/3 Refresh Rate'

If all is working as expected you should get a solid FPS of 48, more or less fully constant.
Now test it and see if you get any better experience and after that report back!

I can't see that error message, but I suspect that you have the latest Nvidia driver, but is not using the NPI 2.3.0.12
as is documented in the first post! Read up on that and use compatible versions!

Hi, your problem occurs when you changue this value:
--- Frame Rate Limiter Mode --------------------------- 'Default' //Keep this.

Don't change from initial value and the error dissapears.

Ok, thank you very much, I go back as soon as I test it.

Yes, with this value don't crash, but I don't know if it's correct or not, but works fine for me. I don't know if there is any newer version of NPI.

@BenganJ

Firstly, thank you very much for your time, I appreciate it a lot!

I test a very lot of variants, and I think that ETS/ATS have problems to manage g-sync and high frame rates. I love g-sync for the rest of my games, and I don't want to enable/disable all time this feature on my monitor, but I noticed that when g-sync is disabled and the Vertical sync at 1/3 I have a smooth experience. I modified mirror distance to 600 and finally I set NPI Vertical sync to "1/2 Refresh Rate" to obtain a solid 70 FPS.

I make the same modifications on ETS, with best results due the lower speed limits on European roads (we drive slower).

In conclusion, I think the solution has been the limitation of frames.

Thank you very much!

@77_sirjordir

Yes, sadly I think your conclusion is correct! As I said, several other people have had this problem
and the only way to get rid of it is to disablr G-Sync, but that's NOT optimal if it can't get setup
as an individual setting in NCP. Isn't that possible?

No, the latest version of NPI is 2.3.0.12, which should be used for latest Nvidia driver! As soon as
there's a new version I will announce it here!

[77_sirjordir]

There is this option in NCP:



I tried this option but I'm not sure if it's the best option or not... I have to investigate more...

Thank you!!
