Hi! So I just downloaded Raceroom and bought the premium pack. Unfortunately, while driving i'm having annoying graphics micro stutter. The sim doesn't wanna run smooth, especially during corners. I'm running Nvidia 3080ti on triples. If I'm running on lowest or highest graphics settings, doesn't really seem to affect the issue. The stutter remains. I've tried to uninstall gfx experience, uninstalled the graphics driver with DUU, and installed the newest graphics driver without gfx experience. The stutter still remains the same. I'm also racing both ACC, iRacing and ams2. They all run very smooth even on the highest of the highest settings. Does anyone know why Raceroom doesn't wanna run smooth, or have any suggestions on how I may fix this? It cost me almost 100€, so I hope there is a solution to this problem.
Do you use any frame sync options like vSync, gSync, frame cap? I would try other ones to see if anything changes. Does the stutter remain on a single screen too?
I did not, but I've just tried both freesync (on nvidia card lol as I have G5 32" monitors) I've tried with and without vsync. Nothing changes. It is the same on a single monitor. The stutter feels a bit like screen tearing (maybe it is?) as it happens when I turn the car. Everything is fine if I drive in a straight line.
best bet is add your full system specs including controllers mention your drivers too screenshots of your ingame settings too Andi

Do you use OtterHUD or any other HUD overlay? Also try reducing "Menu HUD resolution" if it's set to 1440p.
You are most likely using an unsupported resolution. I had the same issue with 5120x1440, but when I cut it in half in the game resolution settings, I get the officially supported resolution and everything became smooth with on stutter. Bug - Resolution and Frame rate no longer respected... | KW Studios Forum (kw-studios.com) Lower the graphic settings (I know, I have a RTX 3090)... but "track details" and a few other settings are extremely heavy. Also, please add all your hardware/software details in your signature to prevent all sorts of unnecessary questions while people try to help you diagnose.
He tried it on a single screen and had the same issue. Your issue in that link sounds very different. Also I'm not sure "unsupported resolution" is a thing. At the very least it would mean that many triple screen setups are unsupported. I personally used resolutions not from that list (although on a single screen) and it was fine.
I'm not using otterHUD or any other HUD overlay (steam might show a message or two). The only software I'm running beside the sim is crew cheif and sim hub. I am unfortunately not able to change my signature yet, as there are restrictions on new profiles. I'm sorry about that. The resolution I'm running is fairly high. Almost 8000x1440p, but how do I know if I'm at a supported resolution? I have tried lowering the graphics to the lowest, did not help Very weird. As I said earlier, all other sims runs beautifully smooth on the highest graphics and resolutions.

There's this file: Steam\steamapps\common\raceroom racing experience\Game\GameData\supported_resolutions.xml Although I doubt it's anything other than a compatibility feature for weird cases when the game can't pull the list of available resolutions from Windows. Which is not your case since you're able to set your triple screen resolution in the game. And also your single screen resolution should be in that file, but the stutter was still there on single screen too, right? Another guess: have you tried switching between fullscreen, windowed, and borderless windowed?
yep I just tried all the options. Doesnt seem to be a huge difference to be honest. Maybe this game just isn't ment to be ran on my pc... It's just weird it works on every other sim. If Raceroom want to rise to the top and become a more popular sim, stuff like this just has to work when you're sitting in an expensive rig.
@FeltHλt I tried changing controller to the mouse. Still stutter (oh my god that is it hard to drive with the mouse haha) @Andi Goodwin any settings in particular you want me to provide? I'm running everything on "standard". I'm using surround. picture settings are controlled by the 3d software, resolution is 4724x1440p at 144hz in surround. But there is a bunch of other settings I haven't touched, so I'm happy to tell you if there are any specifics you want
I just tried rf2, and it also runs beautifully on maxed out graphics and highest resolution. The problem is definitely within Raceroom :-(
Getting a very similar problem here. I came to raceroom for the AAI, but this stutter is significant. 12700k & 3080ti, triple screen, no vsync no overlays etc. Runs all the other big sims great. Spent almost two hours trying to work around this a little bit ago before I hit the internet for answers. Find anything useful @ScopeSV ?
@Manc You are probably using an unsupported resolution. Check Steam\steamapps\common\raceroom racing experience\Game\GameData\supported_resolutions.xml to see if you resolution matches. Perhaps, even try 1 monitor to see if the issue disappears to confirm the suspicion.
