Live for Speed Forum - Live for Speed Test Patch F9

Scawen hat Folgendes geschrieben

Hello Racers. Here's an update which hopefully solves some issues that were introduced with HVS and patch F.

The Hardware Vertex Shading increased frame rates a lot for users with modern 3d cards but brought along various new issues, more people reporting controller lag, network lag and time glitching.

Some of this may be because LFS was drawing the next frame before the previous frame has finished drawing. This would explain why most people could fix the problems by using a lot of Minimum Sleep in the options. This new patch attempts to solve those problems in a cleaner, more reliable and less wasteful way.

Hopefully, people who did get that problem, can use this new patch and set Minimum Sleep back to zero and things will work out ok. I'd like to know if it helps!
