Hallo.
How do I get this Line in NPI ....Antialiasing compatibility (DX1x) ------------------ '0x80000A7F' // Write it in manually or do a copy/paste. You won't find it in list!

@André

If you read the two sentences after the //, you have the answer! Either you copy the value 0x80000A7F' there and paste it into
the NPI field for that parameter OR you just click in that parameter field in NPI and write it down there.

With NPI, have you guys experienced FPS loss even if none of your CPU threads nor GPU is maxing out?

I encounter this often when setting to 4x AA, interior cab in the truck config screen.

Recently I also started encountering this in ATS 1.38 Beta even at 4xS while in very busy sceneries (e.g. Chihuahua Beta mountain pass).

I'm not sure why it would slow down my fps even if my CPU/GPU can do more, but maybe there is something else maxing out that I am just not monitoring.

Any ideas?

@theclumsygeek

Well, first time reported, so we will have to look into it. I'll report back!

Before diving deep into this, a couple of Qs!
1. You say "... interior cab in the truck config screen.". Can you see any truck-model cause of that? Old truck?
2. You say "... while in very busy sceneries (e.g. Chihuahua Beta mountain pass).". A busy game you mean?

As far as I see it, variations in FPS WITHOUT CPU and/or GPU being maxed out, should not be uncommon if it
is the game itself, that has the limitation and both the above sounds like it could be the reason. In that case
those problems has nothing to do with how the graphics are produced, using NPI or in-game settings. It would
even be the same with an AMD graphics card or CPU. The glory with NPI scheme is that we get tools to balance
the CPU/GPU load between them, while getting some serious graphics work done. Please, correct me if I'm
wrong!

I do encounter momentary freezes. The image stands still for a short moment and then the movie continues with a short accelerated speed. Happens often while taking a turn, but also from time to time on straight roads. And a lot more in ETS2 than in ATS. I see those happening too in the gameplays of Clumsy.

Is this a shortcoming in the game-engine? Or has it to do with map-mods not being optimized enough?

These lag-spikes occur even with alle NPI settings switched off.
