Graphics Performance Test: Multiple Cars on Starting Grid

Hi all,

I created a video where I placed 16 different car models at the same time on the starting grid at Mugello.

Basically I was testing what would be the performance hit of displaying many cars at the same time. To my surprise, frame rate was steady at 59.999 must of the time.



I am not 100% sure if this would be a valid test, but I had all the cars visible at the same time and never experience any perceptible slow down or fps hickup.

Native video size is 1280x720. I am not sure when the HD version will be available on youtube.

I published my AC settings and Computer specs on the video.

 

I get C++ Runtime Error when I try to load more then 3 or 4 AI cars at the same time. I'm not an expert on this but does this have to do with the system not supporting this heavy load? Is this a sign that I won't be able to play MP or AI? I'm so worried about it

 

sounds like you have vsync on,. turn it off to see maximum fps you get, and then do a test with those ai cars

 

I have a close PC specs on yours and i get aronud 150 fps with one car of course.
If you please can redo the test without VSync ON and FPS Cap to see how much fps you realy have with those settings,but nevertheless i am pleased to see it didt drop below 60 fps,even if it was a standing grid,not in motion.

 

I have created two new videos of AC showing 24 cars on the starting grid at Mugello, using different vsync and frame limit options.

I have included the fps meter in order to display how fps are impacted by the number of cars being displayed.

Assetto Corsa 0.4.1 - 24 Cars Starting Grid VSync Off Frame Limit Off


Assetto Corsa 0.4.1 - 24 Cars Starting Grid VSync On Frame Limit 60

 

Thanks for your time.
So from around 120 fps to minimum of 60 fps on your specs i say this is good.
With the same game settings but Faces per Frame at 5 and 1 car on track i have around 150 fps....loosing only 60 or 70 is not bad at all....
If i can keep it at around 70 fps that will be great but there might be moments where it wil go even lower, i hope not lower than 50...because there will be visual lag at that number.

Of course this is just a test...we will really see how fps is influenced by the full AI or Multiplayer when will be available...

 

I get 160 fps with one car, with 26 cars i have from 25 to 60 fps with a lot of stuttering. The game is unplayable. With one screen non problem, but i can't sell 2 monitors to play AC.

 

Static cars on a grid is 1 thing, 24 cars driving with smoke, dust etc is another.

 

I have 2 monitors at 1280 x 1024 @ 70hz set as clone so what i see on one monitor,i see on the other one aswell.
My playseat has only one monitor,in that low resolution,and this might help me get that 150 fps with lower specs than yours....If i lower a bit the ingame settings like faces per frame to 2 or 3,the fps go up more....
For people with 3x monitors at huge resolution,i think they need a bit of a monster PC to run it on maximum setting and this is alright i think..
There are stil people this days that cant run at maximum setting Crysis 1....

 

???? you can not use 3 screen, just turn it off in settings .. why sell ?
