Ongoing Investigation: SP6 Route Performance & Redraw Issues

pdkoester said:
I don't know what they are doing to move it from using less CPU to using more GPU.
I would say see if it can be more, like another 10-20%, as the GPU should be doing a lot more work these days.
Give it a thorough testing with that before giving it to the public for testing.
Also, as I have asked before, what are the specs for the systems the developers are using?

Agreed. Even without SP6, Trainz will often use all of my CPU with my GPU chilling under 50% load.
 
A small update:
I've now also tested a map in driver mode, and I only encountered minor glitches; otherwise, it worked.
The stuttering is also due to my GTX 1070, which can no longer handle full performance.

You have 8GB VRAM on that GPU, it should be fine. Developers need to up the ante on getting it to use more of your GPU's resources.

Hi everyone, appreciate all the feedback. We are actively working on a solution that will be rolled out quickly. Could I please get a list of core users willing to test an exclusive patch to help confirm whether the new build resolves the issues you’ve been seeing with SP6?

A simple reply with your MyTrainz account will be enough, thanks. I can contact you directly via the linked account email address. If your linked email isn’t correct, please update it to ensure you receive the patch invite.

And another question, why is there already support for 4K textures, but there are still no 4K monitors?
Click to expand...
This is totally off topic for this thread. 4K textures on ground or assets are not supported by any version of Trainz at present. But this is totally unrelated to the resolution of your monitor. It refers to the size of static image files used by the assets so that when you look at them up close they do not appear pixelated.

I forgot to reply to your message, but again: I also would like to test the Beta version. Especially to test the performance + a rendering issues with random baseboards at the corner of the screen being either not rendered or with artifacts (I first discovered it earlier this year)
 
I am running trainz+ latest store version, along with trainz 22 PE on the latest build, if you want to add me to the beta as well, Only if you need more help. Thanks Brett
 
This may be a dumb question, but here goes....... The Trainz start up screen has patch available. I image that is SP6. That message was there last week, and I did not install it because of all of the reported trouble I saw from others in this forum. However, now, I see that a "fix' to the SP6 patch is available. If I press the button "patch available" - am I getting the SP6 that messed everyone up or the fixed version of the patch?

it drops to 14fps when adding any spline assets or placing traffic signals and normally its 79-81 fps when moving around

Which SP are you using? SP5, SP6 or the new SP6fix currently being tested by those who requested it?

So far nearly all reports are stating that the SP6fix is solving all the problems.

Has anyone seen anything as to when Steam clients would be able to preview some of this? I'm running Trainz22PE, Build ID: 131986. All routes that I run are still horrible:

- Canadian Rocky Mountains (Roger's Pass, Ottertail to Castle Jct., Beavermouth to Ottertail)
- Midwestern Rails
- West from Denver - Moffat Route
- Pro Train: Horseshoe Curve
