Durante Presents: FFXIII resolution unlocking (GeDoSaTo plugin) released - pre-alpha
- Thread starter Durante
- Start date
I don't know. Are you happy now?
If I knew I'd have fixed it already, and I wouldn't have spent hours going through framedumps.
What I do know is that a similar problem also occurs at the next direct multiple of 1280x720 (5120x2880).
Anyway, for now, just use a rendering resolution slightly different from that.

Yeah, I was downsampling from 2560x1440p to 1080 and it looks like shit, even with the MSAA on 8. But when I do 1080>1080p with MSAA 8 and Shadow on 4, the image looks amazing and I get constant 60 fps..It dips a few times during battles but to 55-58fps. Not frequent, so I don't mind. BTW, I'm using a GTX 660. On 4K, I get locked 30fps.

Durante, first off hats off to you and thank you for your time.
I am having trouble here and it seems I can't change the ugly look to hair and eyes, looking as if eyeliner or mascara is on the eyes of certain characters. Frame rate is hovering around 60 99% of the time, regardless of the area, IQ is sharp! But the mascara, no matter what I do, stays! Even when turning everything off.
Just bump both numbers up like 5% and it will downsample fine. I have the same issue but even a slight change will make it downsample again.

Have you tried turning MSAA on? I think it may fix it.

I'm a bit looloo right now, let me try that, or retry it if I have tried it already.
I literally changed it to 2561 x 1441 and yeah, it looks amazing and stays 60FPS most of the time, with small dips to 50FPS.
An odd kind of jerky motion, but Durante already said that is part of the way they do frame pacing or something, so it's something everyone experiences.
Thank you again.

It's actually my #1 issue right now. Sorry for the snippy response, I'm just annoyed because I couldn't fix it yet despite spending quite some time on it.
As rybrad says, even a minor change in rendering resolution will circumvent the issue.

Nothing. This is getting annoying, the eyeliner shit didn't show up till I used the fix. Not blaming anyone, but WTF? Now, no matter what I use as settings it stays, even vanilla, with everything off, and I mean everything is off.
When I started the game, the IQ on Light's hair and eyes were pristine compared to what I'm getting now.

Perhaps I'm not setting it properly. I'll give it another go. This time I'll take a lot more time to figure it out.
Thank you for the refreshing reply.
Exactly like that. Brb

Make sure your Antialiasing - Mode is set to application controlled in nVidia Control Panel.

This too. Forcing AA from outside the game, *HAS* to be done with Nvidia inspector with a special set of settings in order to work correctly.
Try 2561 x 1441 and tell me if you can get 60FPS, as your rendering resolution.
No, and that also made it look like blown up 720p
Weird, it works for me, looks sharp, runs mostly 60FPS.
There's an issue with multiples of 1280x720, as Durante said above.
Anything above that generally puts me at 30FPS lock. Like 4880 x whatever.

This did it. Thank you- everyone, who drilled the answer straight into my intoxicated brain. The IQ is perfect and the FPS is as well, it dips when coming in and out of battle or before/after an event but hangs steady at 60fps everywhere else.
DOF is fucked, but that's trivial at this point. Time to let the medicine take hold. It'll be spectacular to wake up refreshed and enjoy the game with it's enhanced visuals.
Many Thanks.

Are you using the latest version? Durante fixed DoF a couple updates ago.

double post. sorry.
Edit:
I haven't got into it yet, but yes, I did download the latest build and it shows that it's up to date. This is good news. Thanks for the headsup.

Are you using AMD or Nvidia? If AMD, I'd like to know your AA settings and such. Maybe somethings wrong in there.

Has anyone figured out why this game just doesn't seem to want to use the full power of our video cards? Getting dips to 20-30fps when GPU usage is below 30% is frustrating to see. Is it a CPU bottleneck thing or...?

What resolution has people got working for 4K that doesn't cap the FPS to 30, I know that it doesn't accept multiples of 1280x720 by design?
Also, when I enable the post processing 'asmodean', at 2561x1441 will cut from smooth 60 to 30 instantly, is this a known issue or solvable by changing a setting?
[/LIST]
My nVidia control panel and Power Options both have Performance rather than Adaptive as I saw mentioned.
This is my FFXIII config. In nVidia control panel I've forced 16xAF, override application AA and forced 8x and Anti-aliasing transparency is forced 4x Supersample
My PC is i7 4790K + 560Ti on 1080p TV.
Any help would be much appreciated, hope there's enough information there
You have to change your GPU's setting in the control panel from Adaptive to Performance, that'll fix your issue.

The framerate of the game is a hot mess but the down sampling Durante created here is phenomenal. I'm having a blast with the game and how gorgeous it looks despite some frame jitters and tearing.
Ironically this is the first game I'm playing with my new 970 but hardly takes advantage of it. I'm watching my clock speed jump all over the place and GPU utilization do the same.

Like I mentioned earlier, I get very clean image at 1080>1080p(it wasn't like this before) with MSAA X8 and Shadow at 4. Stable frame-rate until I go into a battle with more than 4 enemies and magic being thrown all over the place. It goes to 45-50fps. Whats strange is if I don't navigate the hud, the frames stay at 60 with all the effects happening sometimes. At 4K I'm a rock solid 30, even during battles, but that's with default shadows..And I like the shadows at 4....What to do, lol.
Here are my 1080p shots with MSAA X8 and Shadow on 4. I'm very happy the way it looks.

I'm using NVIDIA. GTX670. 344.11
2560 x 1440 rendering = 720p. & 60FPS
2561 x 1441 rendering = 2560 x 1440p & 60FPS
4K Resolutions cause it to be locked to 30FPS.
Setting your nvidia profile to "maximum performance" should help with the downclocking, at least here it seems to, but yeah, GPU usage remains an issue.

If you've seen any of my screenshots, no single CPU core out of 4/8threads is getting more than 40% usage
Yeah. The frame dips don't even coincide to the down clocking. Max performance might force top clock but I don't think that's what's causing the frame dips. It's probably something in the actual game engine.

Well I have the font ready for whenever texture dumping is fixed:

Nice, like I mentioned in the other FF thread..Can't wait.

Did that a long time ago. My GPU isn't downclocking itself, but like I said, usage never goes higher than 25-30% even when the framerate seems to be struggling.

Yeah I've had to do this for a lot of things. A lot of Japanese games skew the text to match how they want it to look so you have to squish or stretch it some a lot.

Hello everyone. I just wanted to say I appreciate all the work the community is putting into this especially the plugin authors and I am sure that when I get around to playing this again it will look great.
I hope SE can learn from this and XIII-2 and LR gives everyone no need to do things like this.

1080p is no problem, 60fps locked is probably a coin flip at this point, the game has some issues with gpu utilization (some people have issues with framerate dips, others don't) but it will be markedly better than it ever was on any console. Once you spend some time with seeing how smooth it is at 60fps it will seem like a different game from the console version.

Because of how they do hair,
HBAO+ is turning in to much ugliness!

SSD here. Battle transitions are instant (was there even a load time for them on PS3? I don't remember). For a save load, the load is instant, then the level load is ~6 seconds. Only tested the first area.
Roughly the same for my standard mechanical HD. Load times are almost non existent.
