GUI and FPS

Interesting.
I play on a "potato" laptop (Still notably more powerful than your average laptop) and the FPS difference actually isn't as large for me.
I gain roughly 2-3 FPS by turning the GUI off.

 

i play on a cyberpower gaming PC on the old version i was getting like 100 somthing FPS now im getting like 18

 

*sees no beamng badge*, Okay I am confused because if you play the demo the FPS shouldn't have changed.
and if you pirated this game, please give the devs the money and go buy the game.
don't be an AwesomeSauce.

 

A bit hypocritical, i don't see the badge under your name.

 

but he commented on this thread like he owned the game, but he doesn't or hasn't linked the account.

 

I will try this when I get home.

 

Hmm this is also a really big problem for me, I go from 130fps to 175fps when turning off the ui on gridmap.

 

Am i the only one Who Tried this and i get Not even the slightest fps boost? Why is everyone else having this issue

 

I got like +1 fps with the GUI off. BTW, wasnt the vanman banned?

 

yeah, 14ramsor is right, wasn't manwithavan banned?

 

I couldve sworn he was. Maybe it was just a 1 week ban?

 

No issue here:
WithGUI: 39.5 fps

WithoutGUI: 39.3 fps

So there is no difference for me, you can pretty much ignore any difference within 1fps on my machine since it fluctuates +/- 0.5fps pretty rapidly.

But my GUI is not very populated which could be a good reason why. I shall do further tests.

EDIT:
More populated GUI: 38.1 fps

The frame rate varies even more like this +/-1fps. I think it is a significant difference. So yeah, the GUI does have an FPS impact if you enable many things such as graphs. But i guess that is kind of something to expect when you overlay graphs that update in real time. But im not sure how big a difference that should make.

MOAR editing

Well i decided to populate all of the things and the fps did not drop. As in it stayed about the same but became pretty stable at around +/-0.2fps. So i think the stability of the frame rate is probably un important.

All of the things GUI: 38.1 fps (i will admit i timed this shot to get the exact same fps, but it is still representative)

Dat GUI though.

 

i play the alpha,they didnt give me a badge or permittion

 

i dont get impacted either on/off

edit:

Actually I do...

with two cars i get 99-110 with it on and 124-130 without it and I have four light weight apps on



Okay so the more apps I take away the better it is... taking away the tacho I seen about 5-10fps increase for example.

just pointing it out but wouldn't grid pure small be the best place to test gui fps impacts

With apps

189-200


Without [GUI Disabled]

268-283


[that truck is the one I'm am working on that I happen to be testing]

I was getting high fps because apparently my truck had spawn the default with no wheels lol.

 

Probably, i was just following the OP's test instructions.

 

the problem with the gui is that the rendering is at the moment not hardware acclerated. Hopefully this will change in the future and then the fps-difference will be way smaller
