I've an issue with framerate after the update

[Mohawk]

I've the same grapich settings as before the update. But the game seems to have fps drops all the time, despite Nvidia shadowplay showing solid 60 FPS.

Also, i ain't sure if that is somehow connected, but in the grapich settings there's an increased video memory usage. There's been added a graph saying "Other apps" using 900 mb. Just wondering if it is what's casuing the troubles.

What apps are those, though? What does the game mean, saying "other apps"?

Everything not RDR2

I have a stable 60FPS but after the update the game feels sluggish. Like something is off with the frame pacing.

I disabled Vsync and triple buffer in the game and let Nvidia handle that for now... it solved my problem.

Check out GPU and CPU usage for the game. For me it's 3% and 70% respectively. Basically, the whole game works off processor, video is mostly idle.

I've actually found a temporary fix, but it's kind of a hassle. Because you'll have to re-apply it every time you launch the game..

1.) Disable both the in-game triple buffering and vsync options. Exit the game.
2.) Enable both through the nvidia control panel.
3.) Go to C:\Users\'User'\Documents\Rockstar Games\Red Dead Redemption 2\Settings\system.xml and set it to read-only.
4.) Launch the game. When you're in the main menu, go to settings and re-apply the in-game vsync option.

Now the game will run smoothly until you quit. The annoying part is that you'll have redo step 4 for every time you want to play, which is also why step 3 is necessary. If you just leave the in-game vsync on, the stuttering will come back after you restart..

I know this might all seem a bit random, but for me, this method really does fix the stuttering. I've tested it multiple times..

As a result of this latest update, suddenly my performance has worsened with a drastic fps drop. Patch fix!

Delete all cache files located in C:\Users\USERNAME\Documents\Rockstar Games\Red Dead Redemption 2

Including the system.xml.

Start up Rockstar launcher,do a Verify system files. Start the game up after and reset your graphic settings to what you previously used.

Well... Yeah. I suspected that it might be connected with a processor.

Nothing changed. 60 fps with no drops but strange lag still exists

Bah sorry to hear it didnt fix it.

I had adaptive sync on because ingame vsync made game stutter when dips below 60 appeared. Turned on ingame vsync and seams that it fixed it. Will write if its the case

[noname]

Naa, nothing works

[noname]

Turning any vsync off would fix it but then tearing will be soo bad
