Welcome back to American Truck Simulator! Today's video isn't about driving the game but it's about a utility I've started using to smooth over how well American Truck Simulator (and Euro Truck Simulator 2) runs: Lossless Scaling.
For some games, Lossless Scaling can be used to boost your frame rate by almost double, but it does this with a GPU trick. However, American Truck Simulator (and ETS2) are typically CPU-limited rather than GPU-limited. Near-doubling the frame rate will just put more load onto the CPU, right, which is already working as hard as it can... but instead I'm using Lossless Scaling to stabilise my frame rate. Today's video shows you how I use this utility plus some setting changes to get a more consistent 60fps.
With this change my game runs much better as in smoother. I don't need American Truck Simulator to run at 144fps, but running at 60fps is much smoother now.

Works quite well David. Thanks for finding the fix

@DavidSteele 3 месяца назад

You're welcome! The controls feel less bright with the frame rate capped at 30fps I guess because of increased latency, but I don't think it's terrible for a semi to be a little less responsive to the controls. ❤️🚛 I'm glad it helps. 😎😍

Hi. Would this work with 3x4k tv’s. I have those nasty dips, and because i need v-sync, its feels awfull when i loose a few frames. I7-12700k 4080 16Gb 32Gb 3200 3x43” 4k 60hz tv

@DavidSteele 28 дней назад

It'll work with any type of display - you could try capping your frame rate to 30fps and doubling the rate. You may occasionally get drops but if your game is CPU limited, you've a more powerful CPU pushing data to your GPU. Good luck!

...I should also add that the application has been updated a couple of times since this video and now supports G-Sync and, perhaps by association on my own machine, V-Sync works much better for me too. 👍😎

@@DavidSteele Ok. I’ll give it a go. Thanks for the help. 😉

@DavidSteele 28 дней назад

@@niklasbille8729 You're welcome! Capping the frame rate makes a big difference to smoothness - my i7-10700K can't maintain 30fps in a rainy city, or a modern city like San Francisco in the dry, but beyond this limitation it's smoother capped at 30fps than letting it stretch for 60fps. Roll on DX12 support... 🤗

@niklasbille8729 28 дней назад

@@DavidSteele those Citys are tough. I have around 45-60 in there with rain. Now i have tried LS and cap 30fps and x2 Framegen only. Now its butter smooth in towns. 2 years of trying everthing, and finaly a fix. 😘

VR? At the end when youre outside the truck there is a horrid stutter and you dont seem to notice it, lol.

@DavidSteele Месяц назад

I've not tried - many VR solutions make me feel ill or I'll get addicted too easily lol. I'll go back and check but I wonder if that's when I changed the status of Lossless Scaling? 😋😎

Hi David, thanks for the informative video.. it really helps for someone who is looking for smooth performance in ETS 2 & ATS... I have one query.. my game is running very smooth in 4k, 40 FPS without any issue but when I record the same through Geforce experience.., the video is not showing smooth as the game is running.. can you please help me to resolve my issue.

@DavidSteele 3 месяца назад

Your graphics card is working extra hard to game and encode the video. You could try limiting the frame rate to 30fps and/or reducing the encoder recording bitrate a little. Sometimes reducing the bitrate makes no difference to the perceived video quality but a big difference to the performance. I swapped from ShadowPlay to OBS Studio because my CPU appeared to be limiting how well the NVIDIA software was recording, and I wonder if ShadowPlay records at the lower rate not the doubled rate. OBS appears to record at the higher rate - may be worth a shot? Good luck!

@t2patel 3 месяца назад

@@DavidSteele thanks for the prompt reply... I have locked the frame 40 fps in RTSS and in the game. I have observed that when I open the lossless scaling and record the video..my video is not smooth... when I close the lossless scaling and record the video is smooth as seen in game... I don't know what setting I can do in shadowplay or lossless scaling..

@DavidSteele 3 месяца назад

@@t2patel Shadowplay likely records the video before you double it with Lossless Scaling, so maybe try using OBS Studio?

Is Harvens mack r working on 1.50?

@DavidSteele 3 месяца назад

It is... Harven usually takes a few days to test all his mod trucks after a new major release. It's as splendid as ever. Here's my first video featuring the Mack R in v1.50, where I check out San Francisco: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-I9otoXCS2P4.html
