Resident Evil 2 (2019) PC performance thread
- Thread starter GrrImAFridge
- Start date
Is there an easy way to do this? I tried disabling it in my device manager but it made my monitor look all strange and the game only ran at like 1fps.
SSR in this game has a lousy implementation and the cubemaps they use for additional reflections are all wrong as well.
But what exact problem are you referring to ?
Yes, that is just how it looks. If you hate it, turn it off and grieve over the loss of water reflections :(((
PS. I'm also bothered by this.
Awesome thanks. I'll stick with the PC version after all and assume I can make it run like that guy in the YouTube video.
Those arctifacts around the chairs, Leon and his pistol, on which it's most noticeable
Yea I see.
That's just poor SSR implementation. It's usual for reflections around an object to disappear because the object itself is obstructing the screen space but here it seems like it takes up a rather large area and the shape of that area is uneven rather than just the silhouette of the object.
You could always use the trainer to reset the timer to test this.
There's a thread on the Steam boards for it, assuming it's still up.
But yeah sounds like you were running on integrated maybe? :o
Oh, I see.. well thank god, becasue right now it looks terrible
The VRAM stat thing must be borked for me. How the hell can I get 60 FPS (1080p monitor) on a 8 GB VRAM card with using nearly 13 GB VRAM according to the VRAM stat. Everything is maximised except for film and lense option (don't want those). Only turning Image Quality from 150% to 200% reduces the FPS to 44.
I don't get it.

That doesn't mean Capcom is going to fix it. To do it better you would need a good cube map solution to fall back on when the SSR fails, and it doesn't seem like they're using one. RTX might fix this. Since it's just a flat plane they could also use an old school Planar reflection (HL2-style) but that does cause the entire scene to be rendered twice... might be too expensive even compared to RTX.
Cube maps would be relatively cheap, but consume more VRAM and developer time to implement throughout the maps.
It's not great, your options are soft or overly sharp. I found soft to be less offensive.
Also, in regards to the VRAM being borked in the menu, it definitely is, I am on a 1080ti and using the top setting at 4K it shows in the menu way higher usage than what I am getting in reality.
I think it might be because capcom haven't implemented the higher textures in the demo and the menu is just showing what usage would be like at that setting when the full game is out.
Either that or it's just borked lol.

I get noticeable stuttering throughout the demo on PC. On PS4 there is no stuttering.
Yep same here. I think MSAA or simply a higher resolution with no AA at all would be better.
On my 7950 the demo runs better in dx12 than dx11, in both Api when i enabled the menu, the gpu skyrocket to 99% and lower the usage after some seconds, but it's way faster on dx12, there are less lags and stutters too in dx12 than dx11. Very strange!
Did anyone figure out what's with all the High texture settings? I failed to notice any difference between High 1GB and High 8GB.
Also can confirm DX11 runs better on DX12 using an AMD RX 580 8GB. DX12 has drops to 53-55 FPS in some occasions while DX11 doesn't drop that low at all.

Wonder why though, I got no stutter and my pc is pretty much low/mid range I would say.
You didn't turn off the "shadow cache" did you!
My PC is set to RGB FULL, but I set it to rec. 709 in this demo and that got rid of any washed out colors, maybe they just made a mistake naming that setting.
No idea what BT is though.
The recommended settings took 1.75gb vram.The settings in the screenshot is when I changed everything to mostly high(also got stable 60fps)
No, sorry, I meant not to turn it off!
I read a couple of comments from people turning this off would result in stutters.
You should probably just play at recommend settings, but if that doesn't work without issues I don't know either what could cause this.
Sorry I meant to say REC.709, was using old terminology at it was known as BT.709 before.
I had the same exact thing, and the same exact thing happened when I disabled it.
In the end, I just started the game, put the settings up to where they should be (used over 5GB vram) and started the game. Turns out it used my nvidia GPU regardless of the 0.13GB nonsense.
Really hoping the final build is better than this. The SSR are the worst I've seen and the TAA seems too aggressive, it destroys a ton of specular detail and has instances of ghosting.
So i manage to make it run smoothly and without (major) stutter. I actually had to.. increase detail and resolution. So wild, i have a i5 7600k and 1080, at 1440p with lower settings cpu goes to 100% and stutters every 10 seconds or so. By stressing the gpu more i get more utilization and the stutter stops almost completely. Is this normal or is my cpu shitting the bed?
So I loaded this up and let it ride with "auto" settings and I was struggling in the framerate department. Gsync helped but when I game is running in the 30's it still looks slow even with tearing removed. So I popped into options quickly and just knocked resolution down to the point I could set textures to 4gb without getting a warning and put the framerate cap at 60 instead of variable and well... 2560X1440 at 60 fps was achieved with no slowdown or hitching. Game looks pretty good I have to say.
Specs - 6700k @4.0ghz ( I had it overclocked to 4.4 for a bit but then it didn't boot once so I haven't turned it up again) , 32 GB DDR4 ram, GTX 1070 8GB SLI(X2), SSD hard drive running with windows 10 of course.
Not sure if there's really much of an SLI profile with whatever driver I'm using so it may have just been running on one 1070. Either way, it looked pretty solid. Might give the PS4 demo a whirl to compare , RE2 feels like a game I'd rather play on my 55" tv with 7.1 surround to be honest and it sounds like the PRO can run this game quite nicely.

I actually installed Gears again last month and have been playing daily since then, it was crashing until I turned async off about 2 weeks ago. Haven't had a single crash since.
