Sega Rally smoothness driving a Class 66 over the York to Peterborough line, and finally I can use the Class 390 on Trent Valley without having an aneurysm - albeit at 30 frames per second, which to me is acceptable (much improved from 15-25fps!). I felt this two weeks of tweaking was entirely needed for me to get the most out of Train Simulator and I'm very pleased with the results. West Coast Mainline routes such as Trent Valley and South will run at approximately 30fps provided that the view distance is knocked back one notch - I think this may be due to the complex OHLE rendering.Īs an aside, it would be amazing if DTG would remove the headlamp/marker lighting effects for daytime running on all locomotives - fingers crossed. TS20XX will now run 64-bit Railworks64.exe at a maximum (and mostly constant) 60 frames per second with a graphic quality to rival Train Sim World (particularly with the loco DLC enhancement packs). Browse to *HDD*:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\RailWorks\RailWorks64.exe Choose an app to set preference -> Classic AppĤ. Railworks64 will now be limited to 60Hz/60fps in sync with the display device.ġ. Under properties of the shortcut (right click/properties/shortcut) should be modified to - be sure to include eveything between as is! The heavy routes will run at a decent and serviceable 30fps with the view distance setting to one below maximum.Īs Railworks64 can't possibly run faster than 60fps due to our display constraints (60Hz), a shortcut to Railworks64 should be created on the desktop. WCML Trent Valley, WCML South) most other routes will run at 60fps buttery smooth (aside from tile loading causing split second drops). *One caveat to note here for very CPU/GPU intensive routes, the view distance should be knocked back one notch (e.g. Texture filtering - Trilinear optimisation: On Texture filtering - Quality: High performance Texture filtering - Negative LOD bias: Allow Texture filtering - Antriscopic sample optimisation: On Preffered refresh rate: Application-controlled Power management mode: Prefer maximum performance Multi-display/mixed-GPU acceleration: Single display performance Maximum pre-rendered frames - Use the 3D application setting Below is the NVidia control panel config (Manage 3D settings/Program Settings/Railworks64.exe - Railworks64.exe can be found in "*HDDhere*:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\RailWorks\RailWorks64.exe" should you need to add it):Īntistropic filtering - Application ControlledĪntialiasing Mode - Application ControlledĬUDA - GPU's - All (Use these GPU's: select GTX 1080 checkmark)
Best train simulator 2021 driver#
Mistakes can lead to baked processors!Īfter much testing I settled on NVidia driver 373.06 - quite an old driver but I saw gains of around 5fps when switching to this (link: ). This type of overclocking should only be considered if you have the kit to support it and know what you are doing. Alan Thompson route packs and associated dependenciesĭue to the single threaded nature of DX9, CPU clock speed seems to be king here - the higher the stable frequency, the more frames you'll get per second, hence I settled on a stable 5GHz. I highly recommend any Armstrong Powerhouse DLC enhancement packs/rolling stock packs (as these also bring performance enhancements as a general rule) AP track and weather/skies enhancement packs
RWEnhancer (all graphics enhancement config options on, no performance enhancers on) TS2019 (plus misc official DTG DLC add ons) HDD2: 2TB Hybrid drive (For Railworks/TS installation) But here are my findings from tweaking my rig and all possible config options to achieve a solid and smooth TS20XX experience.ĬPU: Intel i7700k overclocked to 5GHz from 4.2GHz base (good CPU cooling and appropriate motherboard are essential for this) It's worth bearing in mind that the core engine of TS is very old, and multithreaded support is minimal - I believe it also still uses DirectX9 from what I've read so far. This post is intended as a guide to helping others achieve the best possible framerate and graphics quality of TS2019 (soon to be TS2020! ) at a native UltraHD 4k resolution.
