What about those leaves? Do they have a texture now?

Was story related I think.

 

[Salsa]

well i'll reinstall to check if the awful sudden mini freeze / stuttering is still there and will report back

Was a misrepresentation. Certain areas change over the course of the story.

 

[BY2K]

Yup, rain is there.

Anybody checked the AO yet?

Didn't realize that. So with the addition of AO and the rain effects, it should be visually on par with the console versions now?

 

[pahamrick]

Anyone having performance problems, have you tried the range of tweaks outlined here?

[noomi]

Good, it's something. Will probably wait for patch #2 before I start my play through though.

 

[Bossniak]

Rain effect is indeed there. Looks a lot better with it but not seeing a difference in performance the way others are. Probably a placebo.

Yeah I am not getting this.

 

[BY2K]

Yeah I am not getting this.

Did you turn on Enhanced Rain?

If you're lucky enough to not have the texture streaming issues (or you don't notice that sort of stuff).

 

[Bossniak]

Did you turn on Enhanced Rain?

Yes all max on GTX980. I uninstalled it and will re download next patch.

 

[spannicus]

Looks like a PC game now

There might be an issue with the game downclocking memory, possibly related to Gameworks: http://steamcommunity.com/app/208650/discussions/0/523890046869403928/

With this in mind I did this and my friend confirmed the exact same results. The default memory clock of the 980Ti is 1753 MHz. I have OCed +250MHz to an effective memory clock speed of 1878 MHz.

As you can see not only do I lose my +250MHz OC on my memory, but I also lose an extra 100 MHz clock on my memory - effectively losing 350 MHz. Batman: Arkham Knight is underclocking my memory on my GPU. This is some ridiculous stuff, and I've seen some bad ports, but this takes the cake. Can anyone else confirm these issues? If so, this is grade A level crap.

 

[SliChillax]

If only they could offer the option to disable chromatic aberration and film grain without ruining the whole post process effects.

 

[Angel_DvA]

Performance are better for sure.

 

[Revengineer]

Aw sweet! I was not expecting this fast of a turnaround on the graphical features. That was what I wanted.

 

[pahamrick]

AO definitely makes a huge difference.

That's... what.

WHAT!?

Is there a way I can verify that myself?

 

[jett]

Enabling in-game AA still diminishes the "bokeh" depth of field effect.

 

[KaiserAlucard]

Can we turn of the grain film now?

Wish Batman didn't like such an ugly mutant. Don't know if it's just me but he seems to have a dead look on his face 99% of the time. I don't think there's any facial animation outside of cut-scenes.

Yeah, it was great when someone made a crack in the game about how he has no expression.

 

[AlterOdin]

Checking the framerate again, I notice when I rotate to city-landscape view it can tank in the 30 fps, standing there doing nothing in 2 secs it increases to 60 fps, and yet again increases to upward of a 100 fps (in a couple of seconds). Guessing this is streaming texture issue??

Really hope they fix this. As is (with missing effects added) if they can manage to have a stable 60 fps I would be more then happy.

It's Batman, hardly the hero of a thoudand expressions. He's supposed to look glum and stoney.

How'd you attach your image to your post? Trying to avoid using the IMG tag.

 

[Salsa]

That's... what.

yup. 2 different gaffers told me this as well.

[-QUOTE]

[/QUOTE] is how I did it.

Can also confirm the downclocking, it happens to my 970 when I have the Smoke/Fog and Interactive Debris gameworks options enabled, which is followed by a hard crash. Oh well, I was hoping that was fixed.

 

[Megasoum]

Use IMG and then QUOTE it to resize automatically.

 

[c0Zm1c]

Yeah I am not getting this.

It's not working for me either, regardless of settings. The patch notes read like it's a work in progress though.

 

[KINGofCRA5H]

I have been playing with the GTA V drivers with no issues, not even a crash other than when exiting the game. I removed the 30fps lock as well. Going to test out the new patch now

Sure but maybe some more grimacing during physical exertion when in combat would be cool. He is human after all, unless they're some super twist at the end.

Thanks. That works. What'd you use for your screen capture if you don't mind me asking? Tried using MSI but for whatever reason it was given me crushed blacks.

Normally I just hit alt-printscreen.

I do have Greenshot installed which is fucking great since it lets you upload to imgur automatically when you take a screenshot. Super quick way to upload screenshots to the internet.

He's neither human, nor super. He's the God damned Batman.

IMGUR compresses though. use picpar

Sure, I don't really care about that stuff (I rarely upload game screenshots). I'm just saying that Greenshot is fucking amazing when you want to quickly share a screenshot of your screen or of an area of your screen.

 

[sgs2008]

Im not gettign the rain effect at all ill try starting a ne wgame since im not very far in anyway

 

[Braag]

Wasn't the Bokeh DOF all ready weaker on PC version compared to the console versions? At least on picture comparisons it didn't look as impressive on PC and even digital foundry said the DOF looks weaker on PC.

 

[Naedtrax]

Man, i wish we could get rid of the shitty grain effect. Makes everything so blurry

 

[ClaptoVaughn]

Ugh.

If I uncap the fps through the ini, and cap it at 60 through RTSS, it's smooth but I get the low res texture bug.

If I cap the fps at 60 through the ini, regardless of what I do with RTSS, it's stuttery but it fixes the low res texture bug.

Only way to avoid stuttering AND texture bug is to revert the cap to 30 fps, but...then it's 30 fps.

I guess I'll wait for the next patch and see if anything changes.

I think the AA is to blame for that, not sure.

Yea i started a new game still no rain shader on batman or the batmobile

That's weird.
I'll have to wait until tomorrow before I can check my game.

Might have to try some scenes with AA on and off to see the difference. AK wouldn't be the first game to disable other effects with AA.

 

[CHC]

Wow a little goes a long way with the patches. The list of planned fixed sounds about right, I'm glad they're taking this head on instead of being cagey.

Too bad about all this bullshit in the first place though, I was actually kind of excited to play this (last minute hype).

 

[Chance Hale]

Turn AA off, play at 4K

 

[Naedtrax]

Well, the memory downclock seems to be affecting me as well. The second i close the game it goes back up to it's normal amount.

 

[jediyoshi]

It only compresses lossy formats.

I need the full screen for gaming laptops asap
