Graphics
– Assist for Quad View Fastened Foveated Rendering for VR units has been enabled!
– – Fastened Foveated Rendering (Quad View) is supported for racers with nVidia RTX 2000+ Collection (or higher) GPUs and OpenXR headsets. Foveated rendering could also be quicker than SPS, particularly for top decision VR shows. It renders every eye at a decrease decision, after which renders a higher-res inset in the course of every eye, such that the stereo picture has much less decision across the edges and extra decision within the center the place you’re looking. Foveated presently solely operates inside OpenXR.
– – Enabling this selection requires the Simulator to be restarted. To allow it, launch in OpenXR mode, and choose Foveated from the VR mode drop listing within the graphics choices display, then exit the simulator. It’ll then be enabled for the subsequent launch in OpenXR, if supported.
– – – There are two foremost settings that will probably be added to your “rendererDX11OpenXR.ini” in your documentsiracing folder. Solely edit these values when the Sim is just not working, or they are going to be overwritten when the sim exits. Within the [openXR] part of that .ini file, “FoveatedOuterPctRes” specifies the decision to render the low res edges, 35% would imply 35% of width, and 35% of top, so it will render about 12% of the pixels usually rendered for the attention. The opposite setting is “FoveatedInsetWidthPct”. This specifies the scale of the hi-res inset, positioned instantly the place you’re looking (be aware: eye monitoring is just not but enabled, so it’s “fastened” foveated). It’s also specified as a % of the width and top of the total eye decision. A setting of 40% would imply to cowl a big a part of the attention’s view, however solely render to 16% of the pixels of the total eye. So with these settings mixed, it will render 12% (background) + 16% (in inset)= 28%, so about 1/third of the pixels that it will have rendered in comparison with SPS. That discount helps cut back GPU fill fee utilization and body latency. Foveated doesn’t have an effect on CPU utilization a lot, as a result of it presently makes use of nVidia MVP to render all 4 views concurrently (just like SPS and triples), so it doesn’t enhance any CPU bottlenecks on account of drawPrim calls.
– A brand new alert warning has been added to point excessive CPU utilization, which signifies you might not be maintaining in actual time, which causes multiplayer networking points.
