Low FPS problems

[Sephiroth]

Well, I honestly thought after upgrading my computer so many times that I'd finally get a comfortable amount of FPS. Unfortunately, that wasn't the case after my latest upgrade. Let me quickly explain what I have below:

 

• OpenJK 32 bit Windows build 08/22/2016
• Windows 10 Professional 64 bit
• 10 gigs of DDR3 Ram
• SDHD Hybrid hard drive
• AMD Phenom II X4 975 Processor 3.60 GHz
• MSI Navidia GTX 1050 Ti gaming edition
• JA++ June 2016

With this in mind, I shouldn't be dipping into lower 20 FPS. Before I tried JKA this afternoon, I was playing Skyrim Special Edition on ultra settings. I went on KR and asked if there's anything I could change and one said to set depth to 8 bit. I did vid_restart and it didn't help. Yes, V-sync is off too. Also com_maxfps was also set higher too. Guys, I don't know what I'm doing wrong. Is it my config file? Is there a command to change to make the graphics card pull more or is there a setting that's capping it? I could send my config if anyone wants to see. Please help me out, this is really frustrating after seeing that upgrading parts did nothing for JKA.

 

Things I've tried EDIT:

• Dynamic Glow is also set to 0.
• Turning V-sync on or off gives or takes 10 FPS from recent testing.
• openjkx86.exe was added to Navidia Control Panel with minimal results.
• Tried JKA without Openjk and didn't help.
• Turning shadows off didn't help much.
• Updating to Tzu's April 24, 2017 Windows build of OpenJK seemed to crash a lot of KR and also didn't help performance any.

make sure r_dynamicglow is set to 0

make sure r_dynamicglow is set to 0

 

I just checked and that was already set at 0 too.

Yesterday I had a FPS issue in JA: when I enter game, FPS was very low (30 fps more less). I fixed this way: in game, I disable vsync, and then enable it.

 

You say you are using vsync off, so it seems that is not the same issue I had, but you can try it.

Switching vsync on and off does have an effect, yeah. Having it on takes away 10 FPS so, that's not helping any.

[Aidor]

You shouldn't need those 10 fps, because with your rig you should reach 100 fps, even more.

 

Have you tried whitout OpenJF how works the vanilla game?

 

Or maybe... in Nvidia Control Panel, set energy settings for JA to 'performance'. I have a friend whose graphic card didn't use all its power in JA because of this, and that fixed for him.

Adding openjkx86.exe to Nvidia Control Panel was a good idea and I think I'm going to keep it that way. However, I still see these massive drops in FPS depending on where I am (I.e. combat zones or places with a lot of objects on the screen) I tried vanilla JKA, setting com_maxfps to 125 and still it would dip down the exact same way. It's true that I do reach over 300 FPS with Openjk in that small square hallway in FFA4 but, around people fighting it will dip down as low as mid to lower 20 FPS. I don't believe that should happen with my computer specs that I shown at the beginning of the post.

 

I should get stable FPS, not dipping between every room on a map. Is it even normal to get huge drops when fighting other people in a server? That's also something I'd like to know.

[Aidor]

It's not normal. Are you using volumetric shadows on? If I set VS on I get some low fps sometimes when there's a lot of characters on screen, even I have a gtx970+ 4.2ghz CPU.

I just got done testing it and I had it set to blob, which is a setting for JA++. I turned it off and it didn't help dramatically or anything. Still dropping all the way down to 30 or lower FPS. I really love playing JKA, I really do. Half of the time, I don't upgrade for other games. Every time I did it, I did it for JKA. I really hope this issue can be fixed. It's strange that I'll play Skyrim Special Edition on ultra settings like it's nothing. That's why I posted this here, because I guess there's something I must be missing here that someone who knows all the tips and tricks of JKA might know about. Any suggestions are welcome, I promise.

[Aidor]

I'm out of ideas of what can be causing you this low performance.

 

Maybe... Before your "last updrade" you said, JA worked well? Which component did you upgraded?

 

One more thing: when you said "openjkx86.exe was added to Nvidia Control Panel with minimal results", did you changed any setting? If you add it but you don't change anything, it's useless. I guess you already know that, but as I said, I'm getting out of ideas.

[mjt]

A few hints in general when using a recent NVIDIA card:

 

Set Transparency Antialiasing to Multisample only, as Supersample will wash out textures, although it works for AlphaChannels quite well. Not worth it IMO.

 

Have you changed the shadow rendering range, or the LOD system parameters or the corpseremovaltime?

No, it was actually the upgrade before that. The last upgrade was the graphics card. At the time I upgraded the first time, I didn't have enough money to upgrade everything so I saved the graphics card for next time. However, I changed a lot of things last year when I first got my new part time job. I went from a AMD dual core to a quad core, complete with a new motherboard to support it. It's an AUSUS board I got off of Ebay. I also went from DDR2 to DDR3 memory.

 

You see, my original train of thought was that JKA was being held back by my dual core processor. I already had a GT 640 so, I thought it was plenty. Jeh from EK mentioned during a Skype call that JKA seemed to be more CPU intensive so, I've been planning that for a long time. Lastly, I upgraded a Western Digital HDD to a Seagate SSHD hybrid. Surprisingly, my startup is worse than when I had a HDD.

 

I've sometimes speculated that I just have a crappy SSHD but, I wouldn't know the first way to test it effectively or even if there was a science in that. I thought maybe files were being read slower and that's causing the frame drops. That'd be pretty crazy and I have nothing to prove that yet so... I don't know if that could be it.

 

When I upgraded the time before last, I noticed it was working well at first but, then something happened. I'm not sure what exactly. The only thing I've done is add some more skins and sabers. I'll try removing them in a temp folder just to make sure that's not it. Anyways, at one time I was getting a stable 125 FPS dipping into the 90s at times, which was very acceptable.

 

By the way, you asked if I changed settings in Navidia Control Panel. At first I left it at global settings and tried that. When I saw no change, I went back and  I guessed a few good settings to change with the help guide at the bottom of the page telling you what it'll do for you. The next guy actually seems to get more into that idea.

Have you changed the shadow rendering range, or the LOD system parameters or the corpseremovaltime?

So when you're talking about these settings, is this in Navidia Control Panel like what Aidor was suggesting or is this ingame settings I can change? I've never heard of these settings so, I might have missed it somewhere. Please explain a little further.

[mjt]

I was referring to control panel settings - you may alternatively use the NVIDIA Inspector to check them out: https://www.guru3d.com/files-get/nvidia-inspector-download,4.html

 

By the looks of it your hardware should be capable of running the game in SP with more than 400FPS I think... how can it be so low? Do you use ReShade or QFXPros modified opengl32.dll?

 

Are you playing multiplayer or singleplayer?

 

Why your hard drive may account for long loading times but not low FPS, that's down to either CPU, RAM or GPU. What's the speed of your RAM?

I'm playing multiplayer. I usually go to KR and sometimes jump on JP when I'm doing testing. To be honest, I've never heard of ReShade or QFXPros so it's doubtful it's that. So the next thing is how do I find out the speed of my RAM? Any suggestions?

 

EDIT: Never mind about how to find it. I had to track down which one I bought. The speed is listed as PC3-12800.

As I said in my second post, you should try to check how the vanilla game works (vanilla= with no mods, no OpenJK,... just the base game with no modifications). But it seems you didn't do it. Try it and then let us know.

 

And of course, also check all things mjt told you.

[Xycaleth]

Can you post what all of your r_* cvars are set to? As well as a console dump after loading JKA when you're on the main menu.

Displayrefresh, Colourbits, texture and lightmap bits set to zero? Is that possible? They don't need to be set that low...

Displayrefresh, Colourbits, texture and lightmap bits set to zero? Is that possible? They don't need to be set that low...

Well, what do they do and what's the benefit of setting them at higher values?

[mjt]

I can't find the culprit within the r_ part of the config. Can you paste your config file?

 

I suspect a driver/dll issue instead. As newer games seem to work fine. Maybe some other programs interfering like flux...

Maybe try turning off anisotropic filtering for textures? I doubt that would be it but it's somewhere to start at least. Failing that, try setting r_stencilbits 0?

I've tried the first one and you're right. It didn't help any. The second suggestion didn't do anything either.

Hmm that config file is way overloaded with cvars from multiple mods I think - can you start from scratch with an unmodded JKA installation and we can track things down?

Alright, I took out JA++ and everything expect demos and the assets. I started up OpenJK and tested three different servers. Aurora's Base Server with lowest FPS at 75 and average was around 110. Next was JP's Community server with only bots in spec. It's a JA+ server so, I came out with the lowest FPS of 32 and the average being around 80 to 90. Finally I went to KR with the lowest FPS being 24 and the average around 30. Aurora's map was FFA2, JP's was FFA3, and KR's was KOR2. Here's the config freshly made.
