Resident Evil Requiem

[sweet estuary]

Crapcommmm

[velvet ferry]

Bro my 12vhp cable finally borks on me as all these issues are fixed. L. Thank god for asus power detect tho

[signal sky]

This is fake

[native lagoon]

ahh dear

[signal sky]

It’s a fucking ChatGPT screenshot

[native lagoon]

I didn't notice the links till now

[sweet estuary]

…

What if I just don’t install the update

Wait

It won’t let me play without it…

CAPCOOOOOOM

hmm does this game allow rollbacks

[autumn spruce]

dont think so

[sand pivot]

crashing 🙁

[sweet estuary]

new update

[wise comet]

i swear to god every single RE patch related meeting at capcom must begin with, "fuck, is REFramework working again? ok who's responsible for adding weird new anti tamper code to fuck up modders this time around?" and then the meeting ends and this is basically 100% of the contents of each patch

[autumn spruce]

and praydog JUST updated REframework before the update dropped i think

so now we gotta wait for another update, sucks

i just wanna use proper HDR, it's literally ALL im using reframework for i can use renodx lol

[eternal hinge]

Had to be tonight of all nights, I don't think I'll be able to play it tomorrow cuz I got exams & shi

[autumn spruce]

freakin crapcom man, i love em and hate em. they make cool games but goddamnnnnn

[onyx kestrel]

Yeah, it’s a bummer. Everything was smooth sailing and looking great, then the update happened.

[vagrant heath]

Well Tbf it was annoying having to keep switching dlss off performance

[autumn spruce]

all ive had to do is stick turn FSR4 quality on, RT high, FG with renodx for HDR and I was all set

i finished the game but im doin the speed demon run and no heals/blood

[eternal hinge]

Left is reno default settings, 200nit paper white, right is 2100 nits + 343 paper white + slight contrast adjustment

[sweet estuary]

It’s so fucked like

I was literally gonna play it today 😭😭

[eternal hinge]

Me @ Musa & Praydog whenever a new RE game comes out

[fierce wedge]

usually shaders don't change with updates

[sand pivot]

you technically can, with a bunch of noise and raise blacks 😮

[sweet estuary]

musa doesn't have to do shit LMAO

[eternal hinge]

I just wanted to include him so that he doesn't feel left out♥️

[blazing fiber]

Havent tested it myself yet, but apparantly this is how to roll back and play on the old build; 1. Identify the Target Build (SteamDB)

To roll back, you need the Manifest ID of the version that was working for you.
Launch Build (Feb 27, 2026): Manifest ID 5691830764668778509
Current Build (Mar 4, 2026): Manifest ID 8674163206011888002 (This is likely what broke your setup).
2. Use the Steam Console to Roll BackYou cannot do this through the standard Steam UI. You must use the console:
Press Win + R and type steam://open/console, then hit Enter.

In the Steam Console, enter the following command (using the Launch Build ID as an example):

download_depot 3764200 3764201 5691830764668778509

Steam will download the old files. Once finished, it will show a path (usually steamapps/content/app_3764200/...).

Copy the contents of that folder and overwrite the files in your main Resident Evil 9 install directory.
3. Prevent Auto-Updates

Once you have rolled back, Steam will try to "repair" the game immediately.
Right-click RE9 in Steam > Properties > Updates.
Change to "Only update this game when I launch it."
Crucial: Only launch the game via re9.exe

[regal needle]

New update for RE9

[blazing fiber]

Another one?!

[sweet estuary]

Another???

[regal needle]

Oh, I might have been late 🙂 BuildID is 22161518 now. I just looked at Steam but it might have been updated earlier

Looks like it was about 3 hours ago

[fallow owl]

so if i didnt download the update should I not download it?

[blazing fiber]

I wouldnt update if i where you. Do this instead Right-click RE9 in Steam > Properties > Updates.
Change to "Only update this game when I launch it."
Then launch the game via re9.exe

should work

[fallow owl]

yeah it seems like other people are having crashes since this update

[sweet estuary]

Because of REFramework

[regal needle]

Yup, just had my 1st crash. Game crashed after the loading screen kicked in and kicked me back to desktop.

Looks like we will have to wait for an update to the REFramework.

2nd launch is working fine now... interesting

Nope, got passed the loading screen, saved loaded then crashed again

[fallow owl]

people are getting crashes even after removing it

[glossy quail]

they probably have the reshade dll in there as well

running fine here

[sweet estuary]

Do you have dxgi.dll in there?

[fallow owl]

it still updated when launching re9.exe and now its crashing immediately

[eternal hinge]

Welp I guess I'll just have to use RTX HDR

Man I've totally forgotten about RTX HDR's existence cuz of RenoDX

[sweet estuary]

No???

Ingame HDR is better than Rtx hdr

It’s just ITM

[eternal hinge]

I've made some comparisons and RTX HDR at least holds better contrast than in game HDR

Though color detail obv dies as it's HDR SDR

[sweet estuary]

Bro wants a crunchy image

[eternal hinge]

It also depends on your settings

Here's some in game vs RTX HDR with my settings

[sweet estuary]

crunchy

[eternal hinge]

Now here's RenoDX vs RTX HDR:

Obv renodx is better, but RTX HDR at least looks better than default in game to my eye

[brisk yarrow]

Just tried this and it worked. Thank you! 🙏 I can actually enjoy the game tonight after all.

[sweet estuary]

You’re losing so much color

[eternal hinge]

Yeah lmao

Looking for ways to get around ingame's shortcomings via TV settings

So far on my S95F:
lowering ST.2086 + active tonemaping helps

[lime nimbus]

So should we only remove the renodx addon file? And copy the new one? Or should we remove reframework too completely and redo everything all over again to update?

[fierce wedge]

You only need to replace the addon file when updating

[lime nimbus]

Ok thanks. I copied it on the 3rd of this month. Has there been meaningful updates since then? I run default settings in renodx except for brightness

@surreal cliff hotfix driver dropped, apparently fixes the stuttering with fg and pt

[fierce wedge]

The one on the 3rd might’ve had issues if you selected the upgrade rgba16 option on the bottom

I also changed the default settings to ones that look better

[lime nimbus]

Haven’t done so I believe

[eternal hinge]

So jealous rn

[lime nimbus]

why

[eternal hinge]

Do NOT update your game

[lime nimbus]

I don’t even have that upgrade option lol

[lime nimbus]

Update the game? Or renodx?

[fierce wedge]

Ah ok you downloaded before I uploaded the update on the 3rd

[fierce wedge]

The game

The patch a few hours ago broke reframework

[lime nimbus]

I didn’t know there was an update, I’m at work now. Should I not update?

[fierce wedge]

Def update the mod

[lime nimbus]

Oh fuck

So I’ll remove reframework and do it all over again?

[fierce wedge]

You can update reframework and renodx

[lime nimbus]

Ok cool

[fierce wedge]

Only requires updating dinput8.dll to update reframework

[lime nimbus]

So you’re recommending not to update the game?

Cool

Will swap out the dinput8.dll and renodx add on file to the latest, thank you for your help.

[brisk yarrow]

Roll back the update. Got the game working again in like 20min

[eternal hinge]

I'm scared it seems complicated

Wouldn't it effect future updates?

I've managed to improve in-game HDR's contrast/washed out look via Nvidia filters

The brightness/contrast filter lets ya adjust exposure, highlights, contrast, shadow, gamma etc

[fierce wedge]

you can prob get better results using an icc profile

the gamma 2.2 emulation profile

[eternal hinge]

Ohh yeahhh

But that won't let ya bump up em highlights tho

[fierce wedge]

true

[brisk yarrow]

It was simple you just run one command that downloads the old update files and then just copy and paste it into your current installation and overwrite the new files. Then you disable steam from updating the game until you launch it from steam. Then You just run the game exe straight from the installation folder so it won't update since you're not running it from steam. It seems complicated but it's pretty straight forward.

[eternal hinge]

Where does it download the old update file?

[brisk yarrow]

Into your steam folder under steam apps/content

The total download was about 70gb from what I saw

[eternal hinge]

Would this effect achievements?

[thorny grotto]

the fix is near

[eternal hinge]

Omggg

In the meanwhile, here's my nv filter settings to improve in game HDR for re9

[sturdy tide]

Native HDR is already very good, just have to go -20, +20, -5 in settings. RenoDX takes it up a few notches of course, praise Musa, but the game is very good as is nevertheless.

[heavy spire]

It is. I went back in to finish the level before the garage and the HDR looks fine to me now.

[eternal hinge]

New reframework is out

[dire helm]

What a dawg

[dire helm]

Having been so spoilt with RenoDX I honestly don't think I could ever play with ITM in any game now . I'd probably rather go SDR

[autumn spruce]

are there any other changes with the latest renodx besides this rgba16 stuff? just wondering if i rlly need to keep updating it if im on an amd card not using that

[surreal cliff]

Yeah I saw that just before going to bed, I’ll check that later. What a mess these drivers are…

[lime nimbus]

Real

I’m having an issue

Where in normal gameplay I pull around 500-550w

But when I go to the menu my gpu is pulling 620w lol

Any menu, crafting, inventory etc straight up pulls 620w

[fierce wedge]

made some changes to default settings as well

next update i'll try and add dithering to the fog

which should finally fix the banding

[lime nimbus]

@fierce wedge what tv do you have?

[autumn spruce]

Ok cool, appreciate you lettin me know. I had like one from either last night or earlier today and just saw theres an even newer one

[fierce wedge]

samsung g80sd monitor

[surreal cliff]

Yeah I noticed that even with the previous patch, on menu or when in a fixed screen (like item viewer or riddle), the power draw of my CG and the fans amp up like crazy, although these are the less demanding situations in this game
Also it seems the latest update added another DRM on top of Denuvo?

[autumn spruce]

what is the film damage slider? just seeing this

[lime nimbus]

Yeah lmfao it sends constant pings to capcom itseems

Piece of shit

[autumn spruce]

and shadows now is pre tone 85 and post tone 65 by default?

[lime nimbus]

Thank god I have the wireview pro 2, else my gpu would be up in flames now

[eternal hinge]

To me RTX HDR is just a better take on SDR. Though even then I'd rather adjust in game native HDR via filters than resort to that

[marble iron]

that is because framegen is disabled in menus/or when expecting items, but the game is still being rendered in the background, so the gpu usage goes up

[eternal hinge]

I think this one can get boosted

Net power control can't be tuned down at all on any monitor, but I think this one can get a lil bump with service menu

[zinc shell]

should I not update my game I saw it broke mods, does reno still work with it?

[wild ridge]

Apparently newest reframework update fixes the issue

Capcom changed their anti-tanper stuff so reframework had to be modified

Just playing without the update is fine too however

[zinc shell]

do you know if they changed a lot I saw you get more fps with path tracing which I use

[wild ridge]

Fps is because of the nvidia update

Unless I missed something

[marble iron]

new update doesn't improve performance

hotfix driver on the other hand does

[zinc shell]

are you sure´? patch notes say it improves for path tracing

apparently they added always online drm to the game with the newest patch, not a fan of that

[wary sierra]

Saw the same comment, I believe. But wasn't the game "always Online" anyways? I mean with Capcom titles, you generally agree to their Terms of Service, if I remember correctly, where you agree on always sharing data.

[plucky flint]

are you guys using DTM or HGIG

[zinc shell]

no you can now not play the game with steam offline mode anymore. have to be online

[wary sierra]

Depends on situation, want to try HGiG (most use probably HGiG with Filmmaker moder in Game mode), but currently using DTM on with some adjustments in Nvidia Control Panel Colour settings.

[unique snow]

guys you are looking at chatgpt slop

not patch notes

[sturdy tide]

Dark room, bias light, HGIG

[marble iron]

well on my end it doesn't improve anything

[marble iron]

hgig always

[plucky flint]

i kinda wanna try dtm again but its a hassle to turn on HGiG on a g4

[unique snow]

https://steamdb.info/patchnotes/22161518/

There are no official patch notes available for this build besides the list of changed files in 4 depots.

[last kiln]

hgig always

[last kiln]

ewww

[dense sapphire]

this is wrong. you have to start the game once while online after the new patch, but after that you can go offline. it's just denuvo activation resetting after patch I guess

[unique snow]

the misinfo always spreads like wildfire

[lusty jetty]

is 595.76 better than the 576 driver for a 4090 ?

[fading isle]

On my 4090 it wasn’t working at full speed at first, but i think they fixed that with OTA update. Now latest deivers runs as fast as downgraded ones

[lusty jetty]

aight thanks

[timid sky]

I confirm

[wary sierra]

Just installed the hotfix 595.76 and got my Excellent score back in Steelnomad. Voltage cap removed and Core Clock cap (3000) removed. 5080. Waiting on REFramework update to test RE9, but seemed to be back at normal.

[timid sky]

owners of rtx 5080, could you share your overclock/undervolt settings? I want to check how much fps I gain with 3000+mhz and your voltages ( I'm using currently .950 mv and 3000mhz)

[unique snow]

already out

[wary sierra]

I can share my custom curve, just copy (draw the curve lines) to the same spot, then power limit 110% and Memory Clock +2000:

[unique snow]

https://github.com/praydog/REFramework-nightly/releases/tag/nightly-01280-1904b553964da9ca5e54a184e6126fae385ffb59 @wary sierra 3h ago

[wary sierra]

to select all to the right from 975mV just highlight it, drag it down and apply (see OC/UV video)

[timid sky]

thx, I will test this out, remind me which model/vendor do you have?

[dense sapphire]

Saw a decent increase from 581.94 to 595.76 on a 5080

in the opening scene at least

115 fps to 138, 1440p DLSS quality 2x FG

[spiral atlas]

Has anyone managed to enable the RT tweaks with the latest nightly version of REFramework on RE Requiem? For me it causes flickering. (last nvidia hotfix drivers)

[wary sierra]

My friend has the same curve and uses the SFF model of Gigabyte (white, i think windforce). I made this curve and use PNY non rgb non OC. Works on both. Some cards can go more aggressive (3150MHz, 3200MHz at 975mV) I am at 3100MHz and it runs 14-16% faster than stock.

[wary sierra]

Will try them.

[dense sapphire]

What are your temps like? I have a PNY 5080 and I feel like the cooling on mine is worse than others. It quickly reaches close to 70c and around 45% fan speed at only 300w, which isn't terrible in a vacuum

But compared to other results I've seen it seems pretty poor

[twin swift]

noooo, why Capcom??? Now we have to play with film grain again 😢

[dense sapphire]

this is with a 950mv undervolt as well

[wary sierra]

I really can't complain, especially compared to my 4090 - it runs cooler, spins slower and is more efficient. If it is at 100% load, of course it reaches around 67-70, but never spins the fans faster than 1500 rpm. When OC only at 1050mV the fans spin up to 1900 rpm

[wet kiln]

Is anyone using a 4090 and on the latest nvidia driver? Is it worth updating from 581.42, I'm getting 85-100fps depending on the scene with dlss quality and fg on

[wary sierra]

So, I generally use Rivatuner to cap games, in RE9, I cap at 120 fps and enable Vertical Sync in Program Settings in Nvidia Control Panel to fix screen tearing. Otherwise I just set it at around 114 and usually have no issues (with FG on, it uses 60-80% load on the GPU like that, 120 Hz OLED).

[twin swift]

PT?

[wet kiln]

Yep PT, though I'm on dldsr at 1.75x (3440 x 1440 to 4587 x 1920)

[wary sierra]

you can still disable it

[twin swift]

I am on the latest drivers. Going to start a new playthrough in a few minutes on the latest patch. I'll let you know what the starting area runs like

[wet kiln]

Starting area is still shit for me (oscillates from low 60s to 80)

[twin swift]

gimme like 15 min @wet kiln

[wary sierra]

Ye it flickers

[timid sky]

should use lower than 120, for example 116 or 114 for vrr screen ( I have 120hz OLED too)

[heady arch]

REFramework updated to fix crashes after the patch ?

[vagrant haven]

Yes. Just scroll up a couple messages

[desert nebula]

.

[signal sky]

They fr changed purposefully the antitamper to mess with mods?

[thorny grotto]

Yes

[signal sky]

Man…

Fucking insane

[twin swift]

@wet kiln I am playing on a 9800x3D + 4090, 4k screen, max settings, PT, FGx2, DLSS 310.5.3 (latest). Latest Requiem patch, GameReady Driver (595.71)
Starting area:

• DLSS Balanced 58 - 74. (avg around 63)
• DLSS Performance 70-100 (avg around 74)

I eyeballed it, though. Didn't do a proper benchmark. Just walked around the starting area and watched the FPS

PS: REFramework + RenoDX running. 3rd person.

[signal sky]

Is it still not working?

[twin swift]

I am still in the starting area, so let me know if you want me to check any other settings on the latest drivers

[thorny grotto]

latest nightly build works just fine

[twin swift]

can confirm. working fine for me so far

[signal sky]

Mannnnnn god bless praydog and fuck crapcom

It’s fucking insane they purposefully changed the antitamper to fuck mods

Is that all the patch did?

[polar summit]

Doesn’t seem right, I was around 55-60 fps fg off

[unique snow]

https://www.nexusmods.com/residentevilrequiem/mods/273

[polar summit]

Try the hotfix driver

[wary sierra]

If you read carefully, you will see why I didn't in RE9. (RE9 has screen tearing, unfixable any other way, except with cap 120 and VSync on via Nvidia Control Panel or I didn't find another) 🙂

[wet kiln]

You have the same card with a better cpu (7800x3D here) and yet after update performance seems pretty much more or less the same as mine still. Is there any point using dlss 4.5 at this stage?

[twin swift]

@ balanced?

[polar summit]

no

performance

this was only as you get control

[twin swift]

lemme try without fg

[polar summit]

it quickly jumps up to 70-80 after you move past the initial street

[wary sierra]

Latest patch is not on Nvidia App, it is here (click on link provided in bottom text) https://nvidia.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/5812 It's the version 595.76 hotfix, for those who don't want to wait on the next patch for a Voltage and Core Clock uncap.

[wet kiln]

Actually @twin swift I get that same fps but it never dips below 80 at the hospital on dlss quality + dldsr 1.75x. Are you on native 4k? Edit: yeah you are sorry, lol

[twin swift]

performance, no FG

• spawn: MAX 38
• after moving a few steps: MAX 65

[polar summit]

weird

i'm getting 65 as I spawn in

[twin swift]

performance, FG on
spawn: MAX 72
after moving a few steps: MAX 98

[polar summit]

then hovers between 57-65 as i walk through the street

[wet kiln]

My card runs super cool too (47-48°C in this game), makes me wonder if I should OC to squeeze a bit more out of it

[polar summit]

past the street goes to like 75-90 and in the hotel its like 90 all the time

[twin swift]

Are you on dlss 310.5.3?

[polar summit]

yes

[twin swift]

strange

[polar summit]

no

nvm

drivers changed it

don't think that should affect it tho

let me see

[twin swift]

i am double checking the dlss and preset as well

[polar summit]

Try the hotfix driver

[twin swift]

which version would that be?

595.76?

[polar summit]

aye

no difference with 310.5.3

[twin swift]

ok, i'll try it right now

[small igloo]

does anyone know what they changed it today's patch?

or patch 1.1 I mean

[wet kiln]

Make sure you update REframe otherwise game won't boot (happened to me)

[twin swift]

on the hotfix driver 595.76:
performance, FG on
spawn: STABLE 62-64
after moving a few steps: 70 - 98

so basically the same numbers, but completely stable. before the hotfix the fps where all over the place

[signal sky]

No patch notes yet

If it didn’t release on console too it might’ve just been to fuck mods

[lime nimbus]

Everything stable? I’ll update my 5090

[sullen lodge]

anyone else unable to turn off framegen?

its off in the settings but display commander tells me its still on

ended up having to delete the actual dll

[unkempt seal]

Got those comparisons?

[sand pivot]

did latest REFra fix the crash? i see one came out at 2 am

[heady arch]

Yeap fixed

[sand pivot]

wooooooo

i wonder how sexy praydog feels when he cracks this things after they try to stop him ahhaah

[snow carbon]

watch Capcom hire praydog to bolster Enigma further

[heady arch]

Lol

[sand pivot]

not imposible, look how evil boris ended being part of moon studios and fixed HDR

on ori

[heady arch]

50% of the sales are coming from the PC version, yet they dont respect PC customers

[winged apex]

Just pointless waste of resources and potential performance issues for something that gets cracked in hours or days

For a sp game of all time

[fickle dust]

The only thing I can share is that unless I run re9 as admin , it will crash when attempting to turn off framegen

[sullen lodge]

That's so weird

Sounds like a different thing tho

[fickle dust]

Did you try running it as admin ?

[sullen lodge]

No but that really shouldn't change anything

[fickle dust]

Doesn’t hurt to try

Unless you are forcing it from somewhere external it should disable fine

[plucky flint]

the banding sometimes is so bad

[fading isle]

I’m playing on 4090 and 13600k and with maxed out path tracing on 1440p dlaa (basically same resolution as 4k dlss quality) i’m getting 40-50fps on initial street level without using framegen

And when i play on 4k dlss performance i feel like it’s most of time more than 70fps without using framegen

If i try to use framgen on perf or balanced i often get screen tearing even with vsync on, because then fps is above my tv 120hz refresh rate

What is the most simple way to limit refresh rate when using framegen for my 120hz vrr tv? I feel like no in-game option work as expected

[fickle dust]

Either RTSS or nvidia app tbf

Let reflex+vsync show you what your limit should be and put that in the nv app

[gentle basalt]

my game keeps crashing on the start up screen now do i have to update the mods?

[fickle dust]

Always use latest nightly build of Rframework and the mod

Or else….

Framework broke with last patch so you have to update it

[last kiln]

reflex should autolimit to 116 fps and is forced on with DLSS FG

[gentle basalt]

ok thanks have you got a link i can download it from please

[snow carbon]

https://github.com/praydog/REFramework-nightly/releases

[gentle basalt]

thanks 👍

[sweet estuary]

Limit fps

[snow carbon]

y'all should really give Display Commander a try for fps limiting if you haven't already

[fickle dust]

Diff between that and rtss/nv app?

[sullen lodge]

Has a different limiter with better pacing

Same as SK

[snow carbon]

developer pmnox has explained the difference somewhere but basically rtss only sets reflex markers I think, DC uses custom SK-like code for proper frame pacing

[fickle dust]

Is there a comparison video or source ?

What about nv app frame pacing or letting vsync + reflex limit the fps ?

[sullen lodge]

I've seen some frametime stats somewhere but not sure where

Apparently reflex has slightly better latency but worse pacing

[snow carbon]

ideally you should limit just shy of reflex limit to avoid overshooting, which DC can do, although its default fps limit replaces in-game reflex with a better one and its just so butter smooth

[sullen lodge]

Which can mitigate the benefit anyway

[fickle dust]

I am not against using the software I just want to be sure it’s worth it before having to manage yet another app

Too many things lately

So what formula do I use to cap fps with commander ?

[snow carbon]

it is a Reshade addon just like Renodx, it is developed for the sole cause of working hand in hand with Renodx which for example SK usually wont

[snow carbon]

it gives you automatic options which are divided by your max refresh rate but if you want most fps:s you just click "VRR Cap"

[signal sky]

I usually get significantly worse frame pacing with DC than with RTSS. Dunno why

No matter the settings

[snow carbon]

that is odd, I have the opposite

[signal sky]

RTSS front sync with reflex markers before presentation give me the best result

[signal sky]

I get loads of VRR flicker with DC yeah. RTSS is perfect

[snow carbon]

I did with any fps limiter before Nvidia hotfix in RE9 tho

[fickle dust]

Doesn’t rtss add an extra 1ms latency ?

[signal sky]

Mmmmm dunno and don’t care tbh

1ms is nothing lol

[snow carbon]

I think yes and so does DC btw, in default mode it adds around 4ms of latency in favor of better frame pacing but you can override that should you choose so

[fickle dust]

Don’t get me wrong I am a big fan and user for years of rtss I just thought there are better options, might go back to it

[fickle dust]

Do you still right click vrr cap on rtss or use another formula ?

[sullen lodge]

from what ive heard from kal rtss's reflex implementation is busted and doesnt actually do anything

[signal sky]

Depends on the game. In requiem for example I cap to 114fps

Just under reflex cap

Gives me better frame pacing than just vsync and reducing the cap didn’t really help frame pacing more since it’s already really good in this game

[signal sky]

In RTSS?

[fickle dust]

Oh man can we get something final that isn’t broken

Pc gaming is such a drag sometimes

[snow carbon]

SK and DC are the closest ones in my opinion, I would like to use SK more but I am also very much Reno inclined

[signal sky]

The problem is reflex lol. It’s just bad most of the time

Frame pacing wise

[fickle dust]

My only issue with dc is that you need reshade with addons in every game you wanna limit fps :/

[signal sky]

I can’t even run SK properly cause I don’t have MPOs in my tv lol (thanks Nvidia)

[snow carbon]

this is actively being worked on, it actually functions without reshade these days but I have not used it like that myself yet

I think if you load DC as dxgi.dll and do a .NORESHADE file in game directory it will load itself

but you would have to confirm with pmnox tho, its just something I remember I read in DC channel

[sullen lodge]

yeah

[sullen lodge]

you dont need the .noreshade if theres no reshade

its only to override it

[snow carbon]

right, I really can't remember tho

[sullen lodge]

although keep in mind if your problem with with reshade with addons is it triggering anticheat thatll probably still happen in standalone mode anyway

[fickle dust]

That and in addition that I don’t use reshade in every title I play

[signal sky]

Could be yeah. I set it just in case. Tbh DC also didn’t really work with reflex in requiem afaik. It couldn’t disable it

Reflex is just crap

[fickle dust]

[sullen lodge]

oh whats wrong with reflex

i always enable it or inject it if theres no native

[signal sky]

Frame pacing is never good with it

[sullen lodge]

isnt that just the reflex limiter though

you can still use low latency

[signal sky]

Nah it’s reflex itself

[fickle dust]

But I paid over 2k euros for my gpu wdym reflex is crap

[signal sky]

If it’s active frametimes are crap

[lime nimbus]

How can I limit fps in menus? I’ve limited we 116fps in nvcp, I can’t find ingame where I can limit fps in menus

[sullen lodge]

weird thats not my experience at all

[signal sky]

In a non VRR screen it’s mostly fine. But in VRR it causes issues

[sullen lodge]

i get extremely low variance in SK

[lime nimbus]

I don’t think it’s possible to limit FPS in menus, unless I’m wrong. Is there any mod that can do this?

[signal sky]

Yeah dunno about SK since I can’t use it like I said. Maybe it’s good there

But DC and native it ain’t

[signal sky]

Requiem has an option for this afaik

[sullen lodge]

nah but i mean this is without it touching it

[signal sky]

Natively

[sullen lodge]

just using it as a limiter

[lime nimbus]

It does? wtf

I’m looking at the wrong place then

[signal sky]

Oh nah definetly not. You might just not notice it tho but it’s worse

[signal sky]

I could swear it does yeah

Unless I’m tripping

[sullen lodge]

hmm its definitely possible its bad and i just dont notice it, but the numbers at least seem to be fine

[signal sky]

Yeah numbers seem fine

But 1% lows and such are usually not

I can’t explain it visually but yeah for me it feels worse and it also causes flicker in VRR for me

Disable it and poof flicker gone

[sullen lodge]

yeah i check those too, and variance should indicate that as well

no flicker for me on oled either

[signal sky]

Maybe its just me tho dunno

[sullen lodge]

and i know what it looks like cos i get that whenever im at full util

[lime nimbus]

So there is no limiter for menus specifically. Checked it up. Someone has to mod it

[sullen lodge]

yeah maybe, very curious whats going on in that case'

[signal sky]

Yeah no idea

Afaik I have every setting right

[sullen lodge]

anyway im gonna ask in the u+ server about this, see if anyone knows

[hearty schooner]

What is U+

[sullen lodge]

https://discord.gg/XnfpuEeh

[hearty schooner]

[sullen lodge]

does anyone else have issues with giant glaring white lights in the ||ark|| (flashbang)

[signal sky]

Using banding upgrade?

[sullen lodge]

yeah

[signal sky]

Disable it

[sullen lodge]

is that it didnt try disabling it

[signal sky]

It’s that

[sullen lodge]

ah ok thanks

[signal sky]

At least I think it’s that

[sullen lodge]

banding vs temporary blindness

its a tossup

[fierce wedge]

Don’t think the banding upgrade even helps really. Today I’ll try and add dithering to the fog which will should fix the banding

[sullen lodge]

cool cool

thanks yeah that was it

[sweet estuary]

Guys ffs

Tag your images

[sullen lodge]

oh yeah sorry

[analog apex]

i still didn't update the game, is it worth it?

[sullen lodge]

works fine with latest reframework nightly

it doesnt improve performance if thats what youre asking

[mental glen]

[signal sky]

And location descriptions

[wary sierra]

Sorry for late answer (work). It seems to fix every issue that people had according to comments surrounding the fix - also don't forget to update the RenoDX addon file and the REFramework and while you're at it, Reshade had an update 🙂

[wary sierra]

Try capping with Rivatuner and VSync, solved this for me

[solid shale]

nvidia control panel global fps cap

[small igloo]

yo I noticed they don't automatically set dlss to performance anymore with the newest update

that was so annoying

glad that's "fixed"

[fickle dust]

Any recommended FOV values for a 55 inch 4k tv ?

I have a small feeling that the fov for grace first person is a little too zoomed in am I crazy ?

[fading isle]

What should i change in nvidia app? Forcing vsync there should fix this issue?

[mental glen]

gsync and vsync and 116 fps global cap

[obtuse mica]

i didn't set any cap do i need to? because it seems that reflex capping my fps to 116?

[solid shale]

i do vsync enabled, gsync enabled, 226fps global cap (for 240hz)

116fps for 120hz

[solid shale]

you want the cap

cuz u want vsync off ingame

reflex doesnt cap on its own

[obtuse mica]

i have it off in game and enabled vsync in control panel

[solid shale]

and the vsync option in nvidia app only works in some games

u want the fps cap as a fallback basically

theres 0 harm in adding the global fps cap

[obtuse mica]

i will try that

[fading isle]

I just wanna vsync to work with framegen like it works without framegen. Kinda curious why nvidia doesn’t handle that automatically

Why framegen forces vsync off?

[obtuse mica]

would be cool if nvidia just add an fps limiter to their overlay so you can change it easily on the fly like rtss

[dense sapphire]

I have no idea why FG disables vsync in every game, but there must be a reason

Vsync in the app/nvcp does work with FG though

[gritty sparrow]

I need to reinstall the game, but want to backup my RenoDX settings. Do I just backup the addon file or did I need to backup other files as well? Thanks.

[mental glen]

not all games have reflex, so its better to have a global cap imo unless you want to do that for each game

[dense sapphire]

Does this happen in other games for you? Vsync and reflex should be capping your fps below your refresh rate

[ornate kernel]

Just a heads up that fast exposure fluctuation behavior is still present in latest GitHub version when in and out director’s office in one of Leon sections

[signal sky]

Did you have the banding upgrade on?

[ornate kernel]

No, and never did

[signal sky]

Huh, weird. It’s probably missing a lut then @fierce wedge

Or something else

[heady arch]

disabling windows memory optimization in exe fixes the stutters. Is that even an option ?

[signal sky]

Huh?

[fierce wedge]

GitHub is outdated

Have to wait for it to merge which is why I upload to nexus immediately

[lusty jetty]

try updating the directstorage dll, might be snake oil but never had stutters

[sinful leaf]

Anyone have success with the latest Requiem patch + latest REFramework nightly + RenoDX on Proton? REFramework alone loads fine but once I add in Reshade the screen goes black with a half rendered MangoHud overlay. I can see it start to load the OSD of REFramework and Reshade but it gets stuck there. I've got HDR enabled in-game, just tried setting Windows 11 in Winecfg, simplified my command line args to just enabling HDR and the Wine detection fix.

[haughty seal]

Disabling Nvidia overlay helped for me

[modest wharf]

Still no patch notes, huh?

[fading isle]

It’s the same situation for every game for me - enabling framegen disables vsync setting, even if vsync is enabled in in-game options menu

[lusty jetty]

Reflex interacts with vsync and automatically caps the fps

But regardless you should just set it in the nvidia app to on globally

• set a fps cap

to the reflex cap

for me for example its 158 with 165hz

https://www.reddit.com/r/nvidia/comments/1lokih2/putting_misconceptions_about_optimal_fps_caps/

[dense sapphire]

Yes, you need to enable vsync in the app for FG. I just enable it globally

[modest wharf]

I thought about doing that too. Does enabling it globally affect anything outside of games?

[snow carbon]

Kaldaien warned against enabling V-Sync globally as your other software in the background might induce VRR flickering if something goes wrong with MPO's

I would just do V-Sync per game profile if in-game v-sync isn't an option like in this game

[dense sapphire]

Yeah I know, but I've rarely had an issue with it

I'd rather just change back to default on a per-app basis

[snow carbon]

and this wasn't an argument starter either, just something I threw out there because it is something one might not remember to troubleshoot if they run into flickering issues

[dense sapphire]

That's true, I should've mentioned that

[foggy walrus]

oh shit I've been wondering why I get so much flickering, had me crazy.

[snow carbon]

it might not be because of this I'm afraid, just one of many things you might end up troubleshooting

[foggy walrus]

yeah I'm running an INNOCN 27m2v, the HDR is incredible but man does the actual OSD/firmware side suck butt

holding for those LG/MSI Mini LEDs 🙏

[dense sapphire]

Flicker where, on desktop? Or in games?

[foggy walrus]

Desktop usually, games not an issue

[ornate kernel]

Just tested latest from Nexus and it’s the same behavior

[snow carbon]

do you mean when you ||drop down from the attic and get a brief flash of yellow?||

[fierce wedge]

someone said they didn't have the white flash behavior in the march 1 build

so gotta figure out what I did between then

[snow carbon]

to be fair I didn't see much of a difference between R16 and default, I switched it up for my last playthrough, assuming the white flash was caused by the upgrade

[signal sky]

Oof yeah there is noticeable banding in some scenes without the upgrade

I just saw a massive one

In the area after the care center

[snow carbon]

I must've ran thru it with blinds on my eyes then

[small igloo]

the upgrade helps tons

I remember seing a lot of banding pretty much in the beginning where you enter the building in a few cutscenes

banding is almost gone there now

[dense vortex]

anyone else still having performance issues with PT on a 4090 even with the most recent hotfix driver?

or similar gpu

[open wren]

Define "performance issues"

I have a 4090 so I can look

I already beat the game with the driver before the one they pulled that had the fan issues and it ran fine with even that driver

the only issue was the framegen stuttering bug from time to time

but I think NVIDIA fixed that

[dense vortex]

like, I'm getting almost 50% of the performance I had on the June driver?

and GPU is pulling way less power

[viral dust]

yes I'm not seeing the uplift either. 4090, 5800x3d. DLSS Balanced at 4k and FG, I'm getting 50-55fps on the starting street with Grace. I used DDU before installing the hotfix.

[dense vortex]

and on the June driver it's running much better for you too?

[viral dust]

ya, same as you really, around 50% improvement. I might just go back lol

[dense sapphire]

Check profile inspector and see if you have the profile for Requiem with the driver flags set. I don't know why you wouldn't though

[dense vortex]

how do you determine the driver flags?

like how to look for it

one thing I've noticed is that I have a profile for RE9 where I forced VSync on, and the weird part is that the profile still remains even after running DDU

[viral dust]

yeah I have those flags and they are applied. I originally imported the profile manually and then had to reset once the OTA update was pushed (this was before the hotfix). Maybe I could try deleting the profile entirely and installing the driver again. It will be these 2 I believe @dense vortex

maybe are profiles are messed up, as sounds like you also made manual changes?

[dense vortex]

yeah, but that was before the OTA update and the hotfix came out

I've even run DDU a few times since then, and I still have the same profile

[dense vortex]

for me it looks like this

Maybe I should delete this profile and see what happens

[viral dust]

yeah dunno buddy, I'm kinda at a loss haha. That looks correct though.

[dense sapphire]

I have no idea then sorry

[dense vortex]

I deleted it via profile inspector, but in NVCP I can still see the profile for the RE9 exe with VSync on lol

I deleted that one too through NVCP

[hushed meteor]

I'm going to have to try this. Per game it is then

[dense vortex]

I got to wait though since Im reinstalling the game at the same time that's how desperate I am lol

[sweet estuary]

DF came out

With da video lesgoooo

[signal sky]

It was just one particular light

Shame that it causes weird artifacts but yeah I can confirm it does help

[carmine lantern]

Alex’s back injury makes it understandable but I haven’t really been liking these podcast style coverage vids of games

[signal sky]

Yeah the video was mega meh

Didn´t really bring any interesting info

[carmine lantern]

The nioh 3 coverage also didn’t test the open world cpu perf

[signal sky]

Yeah they’ve been lacking lately

[sweet estuary]

He said a PT vid is coming

[fickle dust]

Uhhh anyone know how me and my gf can play 2 separate play throughs in this game? I heard you can use diff profiles on the ps5 but what about pc ?

[mental glen]

you have 3 savefile slots i think

[ornate kernel]

Not exactly in that moment, but in this section for Leon, yes. And it 100% repeatable when you circle through certain rooms

[obtuse mica]

im getting exactly a 100 fps with the same settings on the first starting scene without moving in first person after installing the hotfix

[viral dust]

so I think I found the reason for me anyway, long time ago I used that pretty pointless auto tuning feature and then kinda forgot about it. Turns out it doesn't really like that, I got a good chuck of performance back when I reverted. Do you have an OC applied, maybe worth a look?

[uneven halo]

anyone know how to fix pt turning off in rc?

[dense sapphire]

Is it possible to force it on through reframework?

[eternal hinge]

rc?

[dense sapphire]

Also is RR still active when it breaks?

[uneven halo]

if I activate tyros something something, screen gets all glitchy and flickers

if i force it using the uplus tweaks, nothing happens

even switching to AFVGF

[uneven halo]

optiscaler seems to think so. at one point it didn't, but i reset my game and it says it was on after.

[uneven halo]

raccoon city

[dense sapphire]

Apparently it happens on PS5 too? No idea what causes it

[eternal hinge]

Whaaa, PT turns off there??

[dense sapphire]

It can for some people

[gloomy turtle]

Hello, how to configure the mod to modify the black % of the image with HDR enable?

[quasi lodge]

completely display dependent sometimes and dependent on your hardware

as well as all the other reasons

seems like an impossible thing to fix with oleds

i ran VRR OFF for many months, still do on my LG C9 without missing VRR that much to be perfectly honestly

and zero flicker

[open wren]

they just released a patch for the game, haven't looked at the patch notes.

they may have fixed issues with this patch

[bleak grotto]

Another new patch?

[open wren]

ain't no one said "another" lol they released a patch today

https://steamdb.info/app/3764200/patchnotes/

not sure what it entails

IDK if this person installed the patch or not so I figured I'd mention it

[dense vortex]

It was happening with that patch, but I finally managed to fix it now

looks like it was the nvidia profile I mentioned

After removing it and rebooting pc PT performance is fine

[bleak grotto]

you said “just released”, the patch came out last night at like 8pm my dude lol

[open wren]

that's a lie, it came out on March 5th

which is today

[bleak grotto]

I mean it’s not a lie man. Scroll back to last night, we all were complaining about how the patch broke REF

Weird hill to die on lol

[small igloo]

lmao depends on where you live it's either today or last night

[open wren]

yeah this is true

[small igloo]

it's almost 24h ago in any case

[open wren]

but what is the point here, semantics

a new patch came out

that's it lol

[small igloo]

I think since you said "just" came out he thought there was another one today

since it's already been out a while

[open wren]

bruh lmao ight

[bleak grotto]

Right lol I was just making sure there wasn’t another patch that was about to break my game as I was logging on

I prefer when DF videos were just scripted. These podcast style videos seem so long winded.

[sweet estuary]

Alex has health issues

[modest wharf]

Even the console coverage are in these styles of video.

[sand pivot]

i think John is the one bringing the best material in DF by a mile!

and he seems the more hardcore gamer of them all

that guy has a range from retro to PC that is insane

[sturdy tide]

And he's a massive weeb (which is good).

[sand pivot]

yes! that's were the passion of his comes from

when he an alex talk you can tell alex not even close to his knowledge!

oliver is the closet

cause he also has range

alex videos are coming to late also and also too much verborrea that are losing steam! he needs to get them out earlier if he wants views!

[dire helm]

I mean, his point still stands

Oliver seems reeeally smart and switched on

[sonic musk]

More or less I agree, but this one didn't had much yapping
His usual PC videos are around the same length
The half hour yap sesh about High on Life 2 was brutal though

Alas, YT apparently rewards longer videos now

[carmine lantern]

That high on life 2 vid was pretty bad

I also think they went way too easy on that image quality 😂

[signal sky]

You have 12 lol

[signal sky]

You have 12 saves. You will loose the auto saves but yeah. On steam you can also make a Steam family and have her play in her account

[signal sky]

HUH? Really?

Even if you have no other windows open?

[signal sky]

He’s pretty much a console player. I don’t like his style much if at all tbh

[dire helm]

I think he pretends to be, for the videos. But the guy has a 5090

That ain't a console player

I'm not saying I love his style, but I think he's smart

And at least he likes video games, unlike Alex

Still love the channel though. It's easy to moan

Reduce overall brightness

no

if theres some reframework shit to make the flashlight dimmer that would be the only option

but that would also fuck with gameplay

[sweet estuary]

[winged apex]

lost a bunch of progress because I threw a bottle to distract monster away from me, and it fuckin instantly turned on me instead

[slender robin]

Hey guys, I'm still getting a lot of flickering when I move the camera while playing. I thought it would be fixed with the driver hotfix or Capcom's patch from yesterday. I've disabled path tracing, VRR, and even tried playing with only ray tracing, but it's still not fixed. Could it be something related to G-Sync? I don't know what else it could be...

[fierce wedge]

maybe reflex?

i've had issues with reflex in games before

[slender robin]

I haven't tried disabling reflex, I'll try it.

[formal grotto]

For some reason for RE9 I need to go as low as setting a 100fps limit or I still get some minor tearing at the bottom of my TV @120hz with VRR enabled on 5090 with 2x framegen. 100% smooth only at 100fps.

[formal grotto]

A limit at 120fps and vsync means you are waiting for sync and this is introducing latency as a frame gets buffered no? Try 100fps limit, fixed the sync issues.

[polar summit]

not with reflex + vsync

[silent valley]

Can we use Reno now since last night’s update?

[polar summit]

Yes, you just need to update REframework to latest nightly

[silent valley]

Yippee 🕺 I was very disappointed yesterday

[formal grotto]

You can use gsync without flicker. But I had to disable vsync in the nvidia console and just limit fps with rivatuner not with the nvidia console in order to get rid of 99.9% of the flickering, vsync is the culprit here. You will get screen tearing when your fps limit is above 100fps though so try once to limit to 100 and compare the smoothness to 114fps, test turning in hospital lobby and test the flickering on curtains in guard office save room.

[wary sierra]

Not really. Latency is more than ok and the screen tear is happening at any FPS in RE9 specifically - 60, 70, 80, 90, 100, in-game cap, combined with riva etc nothing worked

[dense sapphire]

You're getting screen tearing with vrr at any fps?

[wary sierra]

120 FPS riva cap with ncontrol panel Verticalsync erased the issue:)

[wraith kite]

you can disable it in the nvidia control panel

for that specific game

[signal sky]

Vsync is needed and fine on my end

[formal grotto]

But are you actually running ingame at 120fps or does reflex or low latency mode limit your fps earlier than your 120hz limit?

[formal grotto]

Still gives me terrible flicker as soon as enabled 😃

[signal sky]

Yeah dunno why tbh. For me it’s rock solid

[wary sierra]

No in-game I set it to uncapped, with Rivatuner cap I usually have VSync disabled and games at either 80 or 114 FPS on a 120 Hz screen. RE9 had exceptional screen tear - thus the VSync lock

[signal sky]

I only had bad flicker in one room and one hallway of care center. Rest has been near perfect

[wary sierra]

+120 riva cap

[signal sky]

Some minor flicker in dark heavy cutscenes and that’s it

[formal grotto]

Maybe due to some minor rtx 4000 to 5000 series changes

[wary sierra]

Perhaps...

[signal sky]

You’re not running your tv in 165hz right?

[formal grotto]

No 120hz

[signal sky]

Yeah then I dunno

You have a 5090 so you should be running it even better than me. It’s weird

Maybe drivers

[formal grotto]

Yes 5090 drivers were trouble from day 1. I will test more on the weekend.

[signal sky]

If u want try mine. They are rock solid: 581.94

[formal grotto]

The VRR default for any other game is usually nvidia 116 fps limit + nvidia vsync enabled though right?

[formal grotto]

Dont want to downgrade for one game and lose all other usually good game profiles, but maybe as a last resort. Alternative is playing without framegen, with latest driver the 5090 can manage like 80 fps in 1440p with PT.

[wet kiln]

Vsync fast minimised this for me, flickers like crazy with vsycn on or off in nvcp, also tested with low latency mode on/off/ultra but this didn't seem to matter

[signal sky]

For me this driver is better in all games

By far

[wet kiln]

Mostly it's grace's hair that flickers when you move

[signal sky]

Fast is meant for when you have a lot more fps than your max refresh

[signal sky]

Uhhhh that’s not VRR flicker

Probably FG artifacting

[wet kiln]

Yeah this game is weird I never have it set to fast, only on in nvcp and always off in games but was getting desperate trying to resolve the hair flickering

[signal sky]

Didn’t see any with Leon (I’m playing Grace in FP)

[wet kiln]

No flickering with leon's for me either. Perhaps it's just the difference in volume/density of hair

[wet kiln]

You're probably right. I just turned FP off and switched back to vsync on and no more flickering, but then it's unplayable without

[wet kiln]

Naw that's one thing I don't get in this game, vrr flickers were doing my head in in Alan Wake 2 and Silent Hill 2 remake as they have heaps of dark scenes

[signal sky]

Silent Hill 2 was also pretty okay flicker wise with U+ on my end

Only flickered on stutters which were quite often tho

[silent valley]

Anyone know why I can't see the renodx tab in reshade:

and yes the addon file is in the game folder

[sweet estuary]

what are the issues with the white flashes?

[signal sky]

Never read so many people sharing my flicker struggle tho, thank god Im not crazy xD every time I ask people is like "I don´t see any flicker"

[signal sky]

Did you install reshade WITH addon support?

[silent valley]

That was indeed the issue, thanks friend

[static ivy]

Hi guys, the game has very annoying stutters when frame gen is on. Is there a fix for that?

[fresh bison]

in both AW2 and SH2, vrr flicker is almost entirely caused by reflex in my experience

[fierce wedge]

got to the leon part right after grace goes to the basement

I see the flashes now

gonna see what I can do

[fierce wedge]

ok I know which shader is causing the flashing stuff

fixed the flashing error

was caused by tetrahedral sampling

[stark igloo]

the neanderthal sampling?

[wet kiln]

Not sure if I had this on, if it's auto enabled with FG then probably

[fresh bison]

yeah, it's always on with FG unless you disable it with SpecialK

[pearl willow]

New version of the fix is coming or we should not use RGBA16?

[analog apex]

are we sure this game is using transformer model ray reconstruction? the rain smearing and all the boiling in surfaces reminds me of pre dlss 4 PT

[fierce wedge]

looks like the rgba16 stuff wasn't an issue

[pearl willow]

I just got the game, when i add dinpit8.dll to the gsme folder, this will start REFrame too, yes?

[pearl willow]

I see

[sand pivot]

Bless you, just woke up in time to play it.

Also, I notice some RenoDX addons offer bt.1886, some only 2.2, any reason?

[fierce wedge]

Don’t think there’s any reason to offer bt1886

[wet kiln]

Ugh I have worse fps on hotfix driver on a 4090... fps drops to low 60s in the bar area

[pearl willow]

@fierce wedge , i just started the game for the first time ss i just got the game, started it without your fix to check out the vanilla HDR, the street scene so washed out, lifeless, no pop! Then started it with your fix, day snd night difference, contrasty image, it pops, i swear this companies should hire you guys for HDR work! The Grace and police officer scene looked a bit crushed but I'll play with the sliders and tweak a bit. Thank you so much for your time and work!!

[autumn spruce]

was this only an nvidia issue because idk if i ever noticed in during both my playthroughs so far

[ivory walrus]

Is anyone else crashing with the new nvidia drivers?

It keeps crashing when compiling shaders

[thorny grotto]

If u have some REFramework mods in autorun folder, try to remove it and add it back after Shader compilation

[fierce wedge]

Nah you might have not updated when I broke it

[glacial yoke]

Have you fixed, same issue for me using latest reframework and renodx.

[thorny grotto]

Have you tried to run REFramework only?

also, did you make sure to unistall all the files of the old REFramework before installing the new one?

[glacial yoke]

I just managed to fix it. I had to install the latest nvidia drivers 595.71 and just reinstall reframework and it worked

[pearl willow]

There is an NVidia hot fix driver (595.76) that addresses a few problems with Requiem : https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/geforce/forums/game-ready-drivers/13/583240/announcing-geforce-hotfix-driver-59576-released-34/

basement was peak

[thorny grotto]

what comes after is mid but after that u get some more peak imo

[fierce wedge]

made it to raccoon city already

water treatment area was short but nice

[thorny grotto]

didn't love the open map segment there, don't know if u reached that point already

[fierce wedge]

ya I got to the point where you get the item box

[thorny grotto]

some design choices there were mid imo

I started the new run at insanity and they fuck u up raw

[dense vortex]

Leon's gameplay is nice, but I'm not a huge fan of the visuals when you play as him in Raccoon City. I get that it's the setting but after the crazy detailed interiors with Grace and even those short segments with the detailed city streets at the beginning it shifts to just a ruined city, which feels a bit underwhelming for me visually

[thorny grotto]

yep could have been executed better imo

I think design choice was not the best cause I believe the game originally was very different form what we got

[dense vortex]

I also noticed a lot more issues with the path tracing image quality once I switched to Leon in Raccoon City. I'm playing in third person as Leon and everything is much brighter, plus there's a lot more movement and action on screen, so the boiling effect, smearing, and other artifacts are way more noticeable

[dense vortex]

I still really enjoyed it though the gameplay itself was great

[thorny grotto]

gameplay it's actually peak RE

best gameplay of the series imo

[dense vortex]

yeah

I'm already at the next location with Leon btw, and it looks like it's back to really great looking and detailed environments, which is exactly what I like in these kinds of games

[queen kernel]

the biggest mistake for me is that they didn't separate their gameplay parts into 2 campaigns like in RE2
and i was worried about that when they announced the game

when 2 characters have such differing gameplay styles, it should be up to the player to choose which to play as

or when to play as whom

[thorny grotto]

I didn't mind this choice tbh but I'm 100% sure Raccoon City had different development pipeline. It seems another game compared to other sections

[queen kernel]

I love it but i understand your point

hence why 2 separate campaigns would be better and better for replayability

[sturdy tide]

Owing to the success of that Requiem part next RE is Arklay Mountains open-world, main gameplay loop is clearing copy-pasted camps of zombies to gather all 200+ racoons, and fetch quests.

Will be launched alongside a standalone live-service game.

[knotty apex]

okay

[gritty pond]

jokes aside, am I missing something? The initial RC section was ||a few linear sequences nearby each other and it let you pick the order you did then in, with a couple opportunities of backtracking with key items for extra goodies. It was hardly an "open section" in the bloated open sense, plus a couple of the combat sequences had nice little short lived gameplay hooks for some variety, I thought RC in general was a cool part of the game||

[unique snow]

you are spot on I would say

[sturdy tide]

It was fine first time, but that part specifically is so tedious on replay...

As long as it's not most of the game it's fine.

[polar summit]

I actually think the opposite

I have a save just as you get there

And when I was testing performance with the newest driver hotfix i ended up playing almost through the whole section cuz I was hooked again

[thorny grotto]

I think was fun in its gameplay but not for design

[unique snow]

is there a mod to skip the ||kid part||?

need that for a 2nd run 🐸

[knotty apex]

no

it takes 10 minutes

[marble iron]

[limpid ivy]

Who plays on the old 576.52 drivers or maybe a slightly higher version, has the quality of Path Tracing become worse or better in terms of visuals after the update?
I haven't updated myself yet, as I don't want to get downgraded.

[wet kiln]

Not sure about 57x but I was at 581.42 before updating to new hotfix driver and it tanked my fps after the update

[limpid ivy]

What kind of graphics card do you have?

I have Palit Dual 2080 ti oc edition

[wet kiln]

I have a 4090

[sand pivot]

can't say the same! on 4090 and fps as high as the older versions!

[modest wharf]

I updated to the new drivers and saw that I was getting more power draw from the older ones. Then I tried installing after using DDU and that fixed my issue. Might be worth trying for you.

[mighty kelp]

Me too

[wet kiln]

Hmm. I will DDU tomorrow, was lazy and didn't have much time so I express installed it

595.76 is the one correct? In case I downloaded the one that got taken down by mistake

[winged apex]

this is just notes for the old patch?

i got an update 2 days ago

nothing since then

[unique snow]

yeah, they date it today, but I think it is just the notes for the update from 2 days ago

[winged apex]

anyone know what this is and if it does anything?

never seen it before

cant find anything online about it

[lime nimbus]

is the extra film grain mod necessary if you're already setting the slider to 0 for film grain in renodx?

[lime nimbus]

The new driver does draw more power than the older one, that is the fix

[wet kiln]

Using ddu helped, as usual..lol. My fps went back to what it was on 581.41 (if not 1-2% higher in some areas) but frame pacing is noticeably better, it's pretty damn smooth, no flickering either

And my card now runs even cooler (39-41°C), what is this sorcery

[mental glen]

Ayo what

[polar summit]

👀

[modest wharf]

My message literally said it did not til I used ddu

[lime nimbus]

You’re saying here that you’re getting more power draw before or after the Ddu?

It reads like you’re getting lesser power draw after the Ddu

What’s expected from this driver is actually more wattage, that is, the right wattage being pulled. It’s hotter for me with a 5090 and also better fps

[sonic musk]

That's just Days Gone

Sony will sue

[sonic musk]

I like how even their website has a film grain lmao

[sweet estuary]

Today???

Is DLSS better now?

[gritty pond]

it's the update from a day or two ago, they just only now put the patch notes on the site

[sweet estuary]

Oh ffs

Why label it as 6th of march then 😭

[stray finch]

it just is, it doesn't matter

[dense sapphire]

Could be a flip metering toggle maybe

[signal sky]

Huh. That’s interesting. If you try it let us know if there’s a difference

[sand pivot]

let's goooo!!!!

[small igloo]

ok so I am now 100% certain I found the reason behind the stutter on my end

Don't enable Loos File Loader in reframework

I used it for some mods but I am now certain it caused random frametime spikes lol

[winged apex]

fuck man

I use several mods that need that

i never thought about it

[small igloo]

yea same and now I'm contemplating if I wanna live with the stutters or prefer having those mods lmao

the thing is I noticed when I use optiscaler everything is sooo smooth until I realized that when using optiscaler reframework isn't working ingame

so I realized it's gotta be something in REframework that causes the spikes

and it seems to be loose file loader

[signal sky]

Yeah I disabled EVERYTHING in Framework

I just needed to load reshade

[heady arch]

https://www.dsogaming.com/news/resident-evil-requiem-uses-five-different-drms-on-pc/

wth?

no wonder people have stutters

[signal sky]

Nah the DRM themselves are not causing any stutters

Surprisingly

I mean Im playing the game with 0 stutters

[heady arch]

it caused in RE 8 Village

and they managed to fix it via a patch back then

Enigma made RE 4 run like crap and they removed it

[unique snow]

not really

it has denuvo and capcom anti tamper

dsogaming is a terrible slop side btw

they repost everything with 0 fact checking

I will not even click that to look what they wrote, but here is me showing you the output of DIE on my re9.exe

[heady arch]

The good news here is that the team behind HyperVisor has found a way to make the cracks/bypasses be used without disabling any Windows security features. The team aims to make all future HyperVisor cracks plug-and-play. In other words, you’ll simply drop them into your game’s folder, and that will be it.

From the Hypervisor group

5 DRMs confirmed

[unique snow]

I mean if you want to call it that, it sounds worse than it is

not much different than the other capcom games

[heady arch]

Capcom Anti Tamper is Enigma, it causes massive performance loss in RE 4

[unique snow]

no

engima is something else

[heady arch]

you sure ?

[unique snow]

capcom has their own anti tamper shit

engima is the replacement for denuvo that is cheap as shit

and is cracked day1

[heady arch]

Well, VMProtect is not better, it caused some performance loss in AC Games

[unique snow]

VMProtect capcom likes to use normally for demos lol

demos: vmprotect
release: denuvo -> after some years -> remove denuvo -> add enigma

capcom anti tamper they all have, that is why we need reframework

to jump over that shit

[heady arch]

50% of their sales are from PC, they should treat us better

[unique snow]

agreed

[winged apex]

did you actually verify to make sure it's that?

[small igloo]

I ran around 10minutes in care center and 10minutes with leon in the city

smooth

when I turned it back on an did another test i got a stutter pretty much after 30seconds in care center

so yea I'm pretty confident

[winged apex]

https://github.com/praydog/REFramework/issues/1591

"This happens without REFramework"

https://github.com/praydog/REFramework/issues/1567

there's threads where people say it's caused by reframework, there's others saying it's vanilla too

it's like 50/50

[small igloo]

i'm not getting that spike anymore

that's where I mainly tested it too

[carmine lantern]

Do u have fg enabled?

[small igloo]

yes

[winged apex]

it just doesn't make sense that this is only happening with FG

if it's stutter caused by mod files being loaded

it should happen regardless

I have no stutter without fg, minor stutter with x2 seemingly just the loading stutters

x3 has the big stutters

that make it unpleasant to play

but I had some parts of the game where it almost never happened

[small igloo]

yea first I used optiscaler to replace dlssg with xefg

and no stutterd

until i realized reframework wasn't working properly

[dense sapphire]

In optiscaler above the fps limiter does it say "reflex" or "fallback" when using xefg?

[carmine lantern]

I also still have the same issue

But I’ve heard reflex in the game doesn’t actually work unless fg is also enabled

So it’s most likely reflex itself

[dense sapphire]

after testing a bit I think it is reflex. it only stutters when you're hitting a reflex cap

[blazing fiber]

I had weird stutters with the newest ref build. Swapped to the previous build and stutters are gone.

Nevermind, its still there. So weird. I never had anu stutters untill today.

[small igloo]

just had another major stutter

my theory collapsed

but it was pretty smooth for quite long

[serene shore]

either reflex w/ boost on or display commander vrr cap + reflex override fixed the fg frame pacing issues for me

Also preset e can be overridden again and while it fixes the PT noise it makes the game blurrier.

[dense sapphire]

was just playing around with display commander and these settings got rid of the vrr flicker and stutter when capped. uncheck "use reflex latency markers as fps limiter"

[heady arch]

finished the game, had a great time with it. Cant wait for the DLCs

[signal sky]

Reflex broken? Nahhhh I can’t believe you!!! Who would’ve thought

The stutters for me are definetly vanilla. In care center I had none. Now in || Raccoon city || I have quite a bit

So it’s probably just the game shitting the bed at times

[small igloo]

yea I had it pretty bnad

in one area

feels like shader comp stutters a bit

[signal sky]

I think they are traversal

Streaming related

Biggest area yet and the engine is shitting itself

Shame cause up till now it was running perfectly

This area also looks quite bad in general imo

Im not liking it so far

[dense sapphire]

Only major stutters I had were ||the first time you're in the subway in RC||, but only for like a couple seconds

[signal sky]

For me they are not MAJOR, but big and frequent enough to be annoying

[manic oriole]

any drawbacks to using rgb16 upgrade atm?

[signal sky]

Don’t think so

[small igloo]

works great for me so far

[dense sapphire]

If you're playing with FG and capped then I'm 90% sure it's the reflex implementation causing most of the stutters

[restive quarry]

slopflex at it again

[teal mountain]

I had absolutely zero stutters all game since I capped my fps with DC

[manic oriole]

I saw some white flashing dots in ||a room inside the house behind the first camp you arrive at in Racoon City||. No idea if it's a vanilla game issue as well though. Haven't tested without reno

[dense sapphire]

which settings did you use in DC? with the default settings I still had some stutter

[small igloo]

it's using XeLL

so yea it seems to be stable when not using reflex lol

I think display commander has an option as well?

[fresh bison]

display commander can turn off reflex altogether if you want to test

[signal sky]

Actually they might be shader comp stutters

I returned to a previous area and I’m not stuttering now

Huh

[teal mountain]

capped right below the reflex vrr cap for me (so 114 instead of 115), I also have safe mode fps limiter on but not sure if it makes a difference. Also I can maintain that 114 fps all the time, dunno if this doesn't work if you dip below

I used to have pretty big stutters quite often from the start of the game and they were definitely gone ever since I got DC working that way

[signal sky]

Yeah it’s definetly shader comp. I’m backtracking now and 0 hitches

Damn

[manic oriole]

I seem to get alot of VRR flicker with DC. Shame since capping with DC seems to have removed some if not all of the stutters

[blazing fiber]

Rebooted pc and its now silky smooth again. Weird stuff going on with this gem

[snow carbon]

OLED?

[signal sky]

Yup same

[manic oriole]

yeah

RTSS does the trick tho

[eternal trench]

I was gonna start up a second playthrough on the latest driver + update, and the game crashes about 10s after reaching main menu regardless of sitting there or loading into the game.

New patch messing with REframework hooks?

[small igloo]

did you get the latest nightly?

should be working fine

the update did cause problems, yea

[eternal trench]

doh, I downloaded then forgot to slide it in, works now

[small igloo]

oh man I love the fact that you can switch between first and third person mode

the game is so immersive in first person

[signal sky]

I wish there was a way to do it real time

Without going in menu

[small igloo]

there is a mod

[signal sky]

Im doing grace 1st Leon 3rd for first run and will switch up for the 2nd one

[small igloo]

in theory

[signal sky]

OH?

[small igloo]

https://www.nexusmods.com/residentevilrequiem/mods/15

this one for example

I think there are a few actually I don't know which one works best

[signal sky]

Ahhhh with hotkeys. Rip controller players

I haven’t gone into the mod page cause I wanna avoid spoilers

[small igloo]

yea this one seems to suck though it seems lmao

[unique snow]

ok very cool

oh

maybe not 🐸

[small igloo]

but there are mods with controller hotkey support

I have a save anywhere mod which i can use with R1 + Circle to quicksave

[sweet estuary]

I wanna do another play through but with the dimetrescu outfit

[small igloo]

mommy outfit

[solid shale]

is there anything else i should do other than installing renodx/reframework? for best experience/visuals

[fierce wedge]

adaptive triggers mod if you have a dualsense

[solid shale]

is the game better on controller?

[fierce wedge]

in general I don't like mouse and keyboard

[signal sky]

Is there a good one that doesn’t require to have a exe or dsx open?

[fierce wedge]

that's the only one

it also works with dualsensey

[signal sky]

Ahhhhhh shame

It’s too cumbersome for it to be worth it for me. I’ll wait for official support

[unique snow]

https://fixvx.com/RE_Games/status/2029884762643448145 at some point they will add it too, maybe

Resident Evil (@RE_Games)

A new patch is out now for Resident Evil Requiem, including fixes for some known issues.

We've also heard your feedback and are working on adding support for the DualSense wireless controller adaptive trigger and vibration functions for the PC version of the gaame. This will take some time, but we appreciate your patience.

I don't ever play shooter that require precision

[brittle badge]

I play MnK with Resident Evil ... because they turned off aim assist on higher difficulty
