Stuttering when using Controller

[EvPointMaster]

I'm running a 8700k and a 1080Ti and when using my 360 controller the game still says about 80~90 fps, but it's stuttering horribly; frametimes in the hundreds. By accident I found, that using mouse and keyboard the game runs completely smooth! Any idea why this is happening?

Might seem kind of extreme but can you try using controller after disconnecting your mouse and keyboard and check if the stuttering still exists?

Someone mentioned issues with controller inputs and mouse and keyboard at the same time. Like using one after the other will cause stutters.

Weird but I can confirm this. Been pulling my hair out trying to get a smooth experience with my Xbox One pad, even though I have a solid 60+ fps framerate.. Just switched off the pad and tried Mouse and KB and it is indeed nice and smooth now.

I didn't touch the mouse or keyboard when playing with the controller, but I did notice, that the on-screen buttons show controller symbols for a few frames, but quickly return to m/kb symbols

Try to tick mark your controller from steam controller settings and play in big picture

Oh crap. Does this mean using the Steam Controller will be a no-go? Haven't had the time to really get into the demo yet...

Because they are forcing you to use mouse & keyboard like God intended?

I'll take my 'best answer' from you now please.....

Anyone find a fix for this? I am having this issue as well.

I have found a possible fix for this after hours of having my eyes bleed from the horrible camera stutter. Simply turn down your TRAM to "average". This will stabilize the bloat of your GPUs memory and should eliminate 99% of those stutters. As for this being a controller issue, these stutters are still present when using a mouse to move the camera. The reason it isn't notice as much is because a mouse allows you to turn much faster, so those stutters are still there but aren't as easily percieved as when using a joystick. Cheers!

Thanks! I have mine set to 8000 (in the config file). I think the default setting is 4000 when you set it to highest settings in the in game settings menu. I will give it a try though. The game is using 10 out of 11 gb of my vram.

No problem, let us know how it turns out. However, this game has one other horrible technical flaw. http://steamcommunity.com/app/637650/discussions/0/1697167168517798273/

This does help the stuttering but with the HD textures and most everything at max setting it to average causes various textures to not fully render.

It happened to me too, but only after playing around with Ansel.Tonight I didn't take any screenshots with Ansel and didn't have any of the mentioned problems. When they occured, restarting the game fixed it for me.

Strange. No issues with a DualShock 4 + official wireless adapter.

It happens because the way they implemented kb/m and controller prompts. Whenever you change the input device, the game will change textures for prompts and you will experience stutter.

You can try it out. Press some random key on keyboard/mouse and hold gamepad in another hand, and press some button there. You will notice stutter. If you continue pressing buttons on keyboard and then on your gamepad, you can reproduce this issue continuously and make a slideshow out of the game.

This may become problem when for some reason (broken kb/m? broken gamepad? keyloggers?) one of your input devices sends signals to game when you don't use that other device. So game thinks that you switched devices and replaces textures for prompts causing bad stutters.

If you are sure that your keyboard/mouse are working fine, I'd run antivirus if I were you.

P.S. If you have stutters when you are playing keyboard/mouse, then it is your gamepad that sends signals and causes stuttering. Otherwise, it is a problem with kb/m.

P.P.S. It may seem as if I know what I am talking about. : )
I don't.
