    WTFast issue

    So since I'm playing ninja more often now I started using WTFast to avoid the clucky slow mudra lag, and have instant mudra's instead. That part is working.

    The problem though, whenever I use WTFast it seems like there is some sort of fps stutter 70% of the time... According to Fraps and the ingame fps meter my fps stays at 65-85 without any drops, but it's really noticable and it gives me a headache...

    My system:

    Intel I5 4670K
    GTX 760
    16 GB DDR3

    I have to say 1 thing though, when I turn on V sync the problem is solved, UNTILL my fps drops below 56 (which happens quite often) and then I have the same stuttering fps lag.

    I already have graphic settings set to "medium - high" instead of fully maxed out and don't really want to go any lower.. My goal is to use WTFast + uncapped fps without any stuttering fps lag.

    Any help will be greatly appreciated!

    Is your monitors refresh rate set correctly?

    May want to look at your driver's refresh contols...Vertical Synch option (Adaptive if you can), Triple Buffering (on when VSynch active), and max pre-rendered frames (application setting if you can).

    Huh. That doesn't make much sense. WTFast is a networking thing while FPS is a graphics thing. Totally different stuff, normally those two don't interfere with each other in any way. That is, as long as WTFast doesn't heavily impact your rig's performance. In that case you can't really do much else than cut back on load.

    Anyway.

    Hard to believe your FPS would actually drop lower using VSync, at least with triple buffering you should experience less drops with VSync on. Gives GC more control and ressources to even out spikes. Also reduces workload BTW, which is what you might be aiming for.

    Why would you do that? Both your monitor and your eyes can only process a certain number of images per second, don't have any advantage from high frames rates if you can't see them. And even 60 frames is usually enough to nullify input lag from that source.


    Advice: if you can't really get it done with in-game setting, go NVidia Control Panel, set 3D settings to manual and experiment a bit with those settings there. Might yield some results. Give advance VSync options a chance.
