"Public beta" 1.0.5 build 3963945

With 1.04 I could manage driving with 20 cars at +- 60 fps ..... with 1.05 beta 1st test.... I stopped the game after 5 minutes.
Undriveable ... alone at Zolder .... FPS very unstable ... it could be 35 to 100 in one second according to the track place ..... it was not a real stutter but more than a freeze ... surely 1 second blocked.

Practice ... alone .... offline .... sunny weather and this happens .... stop, I start to be fed up with that.
For optimization, Early Access was much better than this with the Unreal Engine 4 previous version .... not sure the move to the actual version was a good choice .. just a few weeks before V1.0 release.
It seems everything needed to be redone with this sudden move in a too short delay and now we have to deal with it.

I'm not asking too much as I know the limits of my own config.... ACC could handle lower graphics decently .... but now not any longer.
Now .... I just can only wait for better optimization .... how long will I wait ? not too long hopefully.

 

If people in this beta thread report issues (most importantly with logs and detailed info) a current beta branch hardly will make it as is into a public release.
The whole point of these betas is to TEST fixes for known issues and see if those fixes work. If a new beta turns up NEW ISSUES - those will be reported, fixes be developed or an entire new branch be released.
Only generally better running builds than the current public release will make it to a new public release.
No developer has interest in releasing a new build with known severe issues just as you and others have now reported.

If you ever have a problem with a build, public or beta attaching log files is THE ONLY means for a mod, developer or even a technically savy other forum member to help you and more importantly to document issues and develop fixes for future builds.
It is never a waste of time.
You may not get a pat on the back or a thank you for it as devs and mods are likely busy actually developing or … you know … also being just humans and having a holiday or spending time with family and friends away from the internet forum ;-)

For anyone who has stuttering issues with the current build I am curious HOW they run their CPU.
Perhaps the mode their CPU is run in matters here as well.
As I run a machine dedicated exclusively to sim racing my CPU is LOCKED at 4.7GHz and any energy saving, throttling, etc is off by default.
If the CPU or worse Windows has any control over throttling the CPU it may be a possible cause for some people to result in the issues they are seeing?
