No fixes for all of the major issues, not even a peep. They have become complacent and LAZY with the garbage they put out. Finally can play smooth at 4k with the HD texture pack with all the settings maxed out. Then to make it worse, there's the separate frame limit issue that causes crashes above 95 FPS, so just a garbage coded game in general. None of that helped as this is a game engine issue with VRAM management and over-allocation of VRAM. I tried all other options under the sun, disable all overlays, disable win 10 game mode, set PCIE to 3.0 instead of 4.0, set high-priority, use ISLC, clean re-install of windows and drivers, force dx11 via command line. These all go away when task manager reports no more "shared GPU memory" being used, or in my case, 0.1/16GB used. They coincide exactly with the Task Manager "copy" graph for the GPU. With these settings I finally made it to round 10 in solo zombies with this config without a UI error, complete crash, or ANY frame time spikes, like every other game I play on this system.Ĭold war is complete garbage code IMO, these tuning issues and over-allocation of VRAM and under-reporting of VRAM usage in game is just pathetic.įor the micro stutters every 5 seconds, you can use Radeon "advisor" for the game, to see the frame time spike graph. This is dumb, as the card has 16GB of RAM, cold war reports only using 8GB via the in-game performance overlay, but in task manager and the Radeon overlay, GPU VRAM usage is up near 14GB, this causes windows to spill into "Shared GPU memory", which uses system RAM for the GPU, and causes stuttering every 5 seconds.Īlso, the game crashes entirely and has all kinds of other randomly timed stutter problems when the FPS isn't limited to 95 FPS or less.įor all this testing Ray tracing is OFF entirely, all other settings maxed, with HD Texture pack downloaded and enabled. Getting the VRAM usage lower does indeed work to fix this, for a 6800 XT, i had to set the config.ini file to "video_memory" to. (stutter/frame drop = "hitching" in trayarch) In task manager you'll see a "copy" operation from "system" every 5 seconds, coincides with the stutter and frame drop / frame time increase. Anyone getting micro stutters every 5 seconds, your VRAM usage is too high, causing windows to use "Shared GPU memory" for cold war.
