[DX11] Help regarding Nvidia Profile Inspector (NPI)

[Ticreut29]

I found really who cause ETS 2 lagging it's was power management. It's was on high performance and because of this ETS 2 stutter when loading and during gameplay. I put on balanced and no loading stutter anymore and gameplay was smooth without micro lag and missing lod problem is not the cause, but it's was the CPU, who have too many processes due to the power management mode. and another thing, I don't use Naturalux because my computers have only 8gb ram due to the high quality of the skybox but I use project next-gen 2.0 and realistic graphics instead because these two graphics mod don't give lag.

@Ticreut29

Thanks for the report, I will check it out! But to get this right, the Power management mode has these 3 main alternatives,

Code: Select all

Adaptive
Prefer maximum performance
Optimal performance

but you use another set of alternatives. Are we talking about the same setting here?

@Road Runner

The same as I had when I COULD reproduce it! :D Actually I CAN do it now to if using that truck. I have even verified that
Eugenes Volvo_FH_FH16_2012_3.1.2 for v1.32 and Volvo_FH_FH16_2012_3.1.3 for v1.33 has the "rain in cabin" too.

@Folks

Down below you see two representations of the compatibilty bits we are using,
first the hexadecimal and then the binary one. I have been experimenting with
lots of combinations but the only valid conclusion I can draw is that the left most
bit, the 8 in the hexadecimal pattern is necessary and is also the one that force
us to set Mirror Quality to Low. As far as I can see all values above the 8, i.e.
(9,A,B,C,D,E,F) is valid too, but I only tested for Mirror Quality and "rain in cabin",
so these values might have other consequences. The worst thing is though, that
to get rid of the "rain in cabin" needs the position where the 8 is, to be lower than
that value, i.e. (0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7), but then we lose the AA totally. This is just a
report, I'm testing more. :D

Code: Select all

0x80000F72 = 1000 0000 0000 0000 0000 1111 0111 0010

Good afternoon. I have long been interested in this topic, when I was dx9. I have no problems with rain. I do not like the texture of the dashboard, it is not clear like yours. Tested with IVECO Schumi and Naturalux

@Necrokilldozerr

Well, without any other things to judge from, it is hard for me to give any help,
so please give me more. Primarily I want screenshots of the FULL settings in NPI
and also of the in game settings in the Graphics TAB! It would be nice to at least
have a screenshot of the dashboard too, or even better a very short video!

Just tested:
In a profile with NaturaLux: still rain in the cabin :(

[BenganJ]

@Tapir

Yes, the "rain in cabin" is not in any way mod related, it's
most probably due solely to NPI in some way!

[Tapir]

Yep Bengan, but I thought Necrokilldozerr does have the same NPI settings. ;)

[BenganJ]

@Tapir

He probably hasn't got the same settings, as he says he has no problem with rain.
That's why I want his full NPI and Graphics game settings!
