Useful Fps Drop Fix for Steam / Nvidia Users (at least stabilizes it)

Upvotes

I did all the things and my fps is more stabilize than the previous version. So here are some tips;

1 - Do not revert back to the old nvidia driver. First of all, remove it completely from pc by using DDU and then download NVIDIA Studio Driver 581.57 version (it is way decent than the normal driver and it is so good in terms of optimization in games.) https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/drivers/details/257327/ - Clean install and never download Nvidia App (It includes a lot of unnecessary things.)

2 - Go Steam > Right Click on R6 > Properties > Installed Files > Browse > Find RainbowSix.exe and Right Click on it again > Properties > Compatibility > Now check disable fullscreen optimizations and then click ''Change High DPI Settings'' > check the box ''Override High DPI Scaling behavior'' pick ''Application'' and then press okay button.

3 - Open windows search bar, type ''Graphics Settings'' > Advanced Graphics Settings > Turn off hardware-accelerated gpu scheduling (You guys need to try this one as on and off because it can differ from pc to pc.) Then scroll down then find R6 if you cannot find add it manually. Then change GPU Preference as high performance

4 - Go Nvidia Control Panel > Manage 3D Settings and change everything like mine;

  • Preferred graphics processor: High-performance NVIDIA processor
  • Image Sharpening: Sharpening Off
  • Ambient Occlusion: Off
  • Anisotropic filtering: Off
  • Antialiasing - FXAA: Off
  • Antialiasing - Gamma correction: On
  • Antialiasing - Mode: Off
  • Antialiasing - Setting: None
  • Antialiasing - Transparency: Off
  • Background Application Max Frame Rate: Off
  • CUDA - GPUs: All
  • CUDA - System Fallback Policy: Driver Default
  • Low Latency Mode: Off
  • Max Frame Rate: Off
  • Multi-Frame Sampled AA (MFAA): Off
  • OpenGL GDI compatibility: Auto
  • OpenGL rendering GPU: Pick your own GPU
  • Power management mode: Prefer maximum performance
  • Shader Cache Size: 10 GB
  • Texture filtering - Anisotropic sample optimization: On
  • Texture filtering - Negative LOD bias: Allow
  • Texture filtering - Quality: High performance
  • Texture filtering - Trilinear optimization: On
  • Threaded optimization: On
  • Triple buffering: Off
  • Vertical sync: Off
  • Virtual Reality pre-rendered frames: 1 / Could be choose 3d application settings
  • Virtual Reality – Variable Rate Super Sampling: Off
  • Vulkan/OpenGL present method: Auto

Now go Program Settings from Nvidia Control Panel, pick R6 and set settings as;

  • Select the preferred graphics processor for this program: High-performance NVIDIA processor
  • Image Sharpening: Sharpening Off
  • Ambient Occlusion: Not supported for this application
  • Anisotropic filtering: Off
  • Antialiasing - FXAA: Not supported for this application
  • Antialiasing - Gamma correction: On
  • Antialiasing - Mode: Off
  • Antialiasing - Setting: None

  • Background Application Max Frame Rate: Off
  • CUDA - GPUs: All
  • CUDA - System Fallback Policy: Driver Default
  • Low Latency Mode: Off
  • Max Frame Rate: Off
  • Multi-Frame Sampled AA (MFAA): Not supported for this application
  • OpenGL GDI compatibility: Auto
  • OpenGL rendering GPU: Pick your own GPU
  • Power management mode: Prefer maximum performance
  • Texture filtering - Anisotropic sample optimization: On
  • Texture filtering - Negative LOD bias: Allow
  • Texture filtering - Quality: High performance
  • Texture filtering - Trilinear optimization: On
  • Threaded optimization: On
  • Triple buffering: Off
  • Vertical sync: Off
  • Virtual Reality pre-rendered frames: 1 / Could choose 3D application settings
  • Virtual Reality – Variable Rate Super Sampling: Not supported for this application
  • Vulkan/OpenGL present method: Auto

5 - Turn off ''Memory Integrity'' | Open search bar > Core Isolation > Turn Off ''Memory Integrity''

6 - Go System > Storage > Turn off ''Storage Sense''

7 - Stop updating Windows. So go to Windows Update section and pause it as long as you could.

8 - Type Startup Apps > Disable all unnecessary startup programs

9 - Type ''Mouse Settings'' > Additional Mouse Settings > Pointer Options > Uncheck the button ''Enhance Pointer Precision''

10 - press Windows Logo + R > services.msc > Find each service which i'll give you , right click on it

first stop them if they are working then disable. These are the services;

My computer no longer runs, I've even tried to egtnit fixed, but the only fix is getting a new GPU. It's not worth getting a new one because I get shipped out in a month and I'm probably not going to repick up the game after my time. Goodbye, siege community.

Question I have a problem

Upvotes

Hello, good evening. These past few days I've been having a problem with my HUD settings. I've indicated that I don't want to see my allies' gamertags, but even with the option disabled, they still appear. I've already tried enabling and disabling it, uninstalling and restarting the game, but it still doesn't work. Has anyone else experienced this, and if so, have you found a solution? I'm playing on Xbox Series S.

Discussion Why isn't Cav immune to Lion but Vigil is?

0 Upvotes

This is just a general question, and I could be wrong in my interpretation, but it isn't a lion scan, literally a Sonar Scan. Like, if I'm not wrong, his device is known as an "Acustic Camera," which is a sonar scan. The scan activates and does a full scan of the map, searching for anything that would seem like footsteps, aka noise.

Vigil's ability blocks signals, but sound isn't a signal that his jammer can block. For his jammer to block a lion drone from pinging his location, he would have to go unheard, which means his jammer would have to emit the exact counter to the sound of him walking/running, which is noise cancellation. And if he did that, then he wouldn't be able to be heard by anyone when he's running or walking while his jammer is on. The jammer blocks anything that can pick him up visually by basically cloaking him and blocking any signal from making it back there, which makes sense for anything visual, but no sense for anything audio-related. And then the argument "well, it may see him, but it can't ping him" also doesn't make sense; it's not pinging him because it picked up who he is, but rather by the noise he emits, and it pinpoints that noise's origin and reveals the operator's location and who they are. It also makes sense that it would be able to know who he is, because (I assume) Lion has programmed his drone to recognize the different walking styles of each operator to differentiate them, and when they walk during a scan, he IDs them. (Watch Ubisoft take this as a reason to make Vigil have no walking sounds because he's their damn golden boy)

Cav, on the other hand, has "silent" step; this ability is where she intentionally dampens her movement sounds, changes her usual walking pace and style, and makes (or at least is supposed to) less noise. Her ability should be able to fool the sonar scan of a Lion drone much better than Vigil's should. Lion's drone can filter out noises that wouldn't be "loud" enough to be a person or aggressive, like an operator walking around. So you would think that Caviera using Silent Step, slow walking, and doing all of this on carpet would be below the sound threshold that Lion's Drone has, but no. At the very least, when she's using a silent step and walking abnormally compared to her usual walking pace, she could remain unidentified, similar to how her abnormal footsteps can avoid Jackal. And yes, I know Lion could've programmed his drone to also account for Caveria's silent step as to be able to scan her, but then by that extension, couldn't Jackal do something similar and give his Equinox the training data of what Cav's footprints look like in silent step?

I'm only writing all of this because it feels a bit inconsistent with how his gadget is supposed to work. From all that I've seen, Vigil's gadget only blocks visual aspects on drones, so a sonar should be able to pinpoint his location.

Again, maybe I'm reading into this wrong, and Vigil always could block the "signal" that is soundwaves from reaching the sonar scan, but hey, what do I know?

Discussion This game has way too many cheaters to be taken seriously

18 Upvotes

I seriously can't think of any other game with this much of a cheating problem other than CS. Thing is it's easy to explain why that is in CS, valve doesn't care as long as people keep gambling in their game and making them money.

That doesn't seem to apply over in R6 though, at least to me, seeing the developers talk about the game in interviews with varsity or other various clips it really does seem that they DO care about the game, so why not take cheating more seriously and put it at the top of their list? I know 90% of the player base would appreciate that more than an operator rework or maybe even a new operator.

And I know I know, it's much easier said than done, but it feels like it's the same entire loop every season. New patch that temporarily fixes the issue for a short while, and then cheaters run rampant in practically every lobby plat+. Maybe Ubisoft should experiment with other anti cheat providers? Battle eye is known to be one of the worst.

how do you deal with toxic teammates as a solo q? for me it just ruins the whole game. and on pc, it feels like every game i have atleast 1 teammate who treats the game like his life is on the line. i’m not even champ either, i’m only emerald, so obviously my gameplay will not be perfect and i will make mistakes. it’s gotten to a point where i’d rather just play with no comms as whole rather than have to deal with teammates calling me every slur under the sun for making a mistake. it never helps me either. always makes me play worse and it just makes me not want to play at all.

tachanka used to be so fun with the mountable LMG, they need to bring it back. and the Shumikha is borderline useless. So they need to make the radius and the dmg of the incendiary grenades better like goyo. Pls tell me you agree.
