Ok, so -dx11mt raised my FPS by about 3-5 on Azure Coast in a thunderstorm. Adding -pthreads4 after that dropped the FPS back to where it was before.

nice, thx for reporting.

i did -fpscap 63 & mt & noticed either microstutter or low framerate, i was doing career mode & just felt like racing so i didnt bother putting fraps on. going to remove the fpscap for now & see if it goes away, v-sync seems fine anyway

63? Well what's nice about the fps cap is it doesn't effect performance when you dip below your refresh rate like vsync does. But that's the idea of adaptive vsync I guess.

[yusupov]

well the reason i (used to, at least) always use FPS cap when possible is bc supposedly vsync causes input lag, im using it nowadays in a few sims & dont notice anything tho

[yusupov]

also can only say w/ MT enabled im not noticing any of the issues but i havent replicated the situation yet, when i go back to career ill try both by themselves & see if i/fraps notices anything

I love how VSYNC looks, and I hate input lag, so a few tricks to eliminate or reduce input lag to a minimum are enabling VSYNC and limiting your framerate just one frame below your sync

For a 60hz VSYNC, limit your framerate to 59.

Also, equally (if not better) good is to turn render frames ahead =1. You can even combine everything and input lag shouldn't be an issue for most people.

Beware that others are more prone to input lag and even this solution/workaround won't be sufficient for them and that's just perfect

Wait, so alt+enter works again for resizing the window?

Nope it doesn't. At least on both of my systems

IT is still a very much WIP and sometimes game files lose sync between pCARS and the tool, but you can use...

-autods (create a server using a publicly available dedicated server)
-searchds "x" (where "x" is the name of the dedicated server you wish to create a server on)
