***THE BF4 BENCHMARKS THREAD***
- Thread starter pgi947
- Start date
This seems to be an issue with a lot of people, I had it the other night but just for 1 round, but a few others I game with had it a lot more.

Thanks i dont play a whole lot now i have to get some upgrades but we can squad sometime as you are in my agegroup i prefer to play with and you play a lot it seems. Do you guys go for ground or vehicle then?
Also anyone figured out how to use Battlescreen? I do not have a second monitor or an Andriod with sufficent version to run the App so im looking to get it on my laptop if possible but ive no idea what i do, do i log into origin and BF4 or something? There is no minimap on HC but you are free to have full map (m) on a second monitor or tablet and get to see the normally invisable perks like Air Radar and Gunner proximity Detection in Hardcore mode.

Welocme
I don't play as much as I used to but do enjoy a blast now and then. I am more of a fan of TDM over vehicles. Any time I am on, you are more than welcome to join me. Ignore anything I say in chat as well
As for battlemap, I have a second screen but don't tend to bother. I am not good enough really but play for fun.

There is no minimap on HC but you are free to have fullmap (M Key) on a second monitor or tablet and get to see the normally invisable HC perks like Air Radar and Gunner proximity Detection which require a map. Im literally drooling at the thought of a DIY Heli or tank cockpit simulator with Joystick and a triple screen 120hz Eizo 2421 setup with a dedicated tablet or laptop being used for the minimap. I just need £1200 for three monitors!
You can only use the battlescreen in softcore mode, which is a bit naff, it works fine on my 2nd monitor, when you join a server just hit the blue 'battle screen' tab at the bottom of your battle log. Haven't tried with a laptop but I would assume you would load your battlelog on that first.

Told you now try out the new processor count setting as well and set to 8 for 8 threads on the i7. I have literally no issues with the game as far as crashes and performance goes im very happy with it i think the last patch boosted things quite well. My overclock on my i5 is 4700mhz and BF4 loves it.
Also i added you and Greg incase you were wondering who it was that sent the friend requests
from Jan 3rd Update
Do I remember hearing that there is also a command that will log min/avg/max framerates to a csv file in BF4 now? Does anyone know what it is?
Caporegime
get the free eidtion of fraps, minimize it and set the bench time to 30 mins (1800 seconds). When you start a round press the hotkey to start benching and when the round is almost over, press the hotkey again.
Make sure you tick the boxes for min/avg/max and the file will be in C:/Fraps

Enjoy the numbers you have no control over
Huh really mate it is disabled in Hardcore? How come i can see the fullmap in hardcore by hitting M so why would they remove it from Battlescreen? I just had a look at the forums seems it might just be a bug for now as i said the map is there on M no reason why it is stuck on loading screen on HC.

No idea bud. I use it for any game benching. As for Mantle, I see no reason it wouldn't work but I am guessing.

The command I was thinking of was:
But that's not quite what I wanted.

I haven't tried anything related to mantle yet but I'm wondering if they are using some trickery to exaggerate their results. Has anyone noticed this? http://battlelog.battlefield.com/bf4/forum/threadview/2979150493821981180/
Unfortunatly not something I can easily test for myself but seen a few people claiming in bf4 with mantle its cubic clipping the far plane and using fog to cover it up hence the big fps gain on long views, should be pretty easy to prove or dissprove that on golmund.

can anyone tell me the consol command or how i run the benchmark. I buggered if I can find anything about it. Googling BF4 benchmarks gets loads of results

There is not a dedicated benchmark.

I've spent most of the day comparing DX11 and Mantle and I can't see anything visually different between the two.
The only difference is the FPS/smoothness.
Soldato
Loaded up the test range, switched to Mantle, Quit, start Test Range, BF4 has stopped working, try again, BF4 has stopped working.
So how do I set it back to DX? I'd rather not use that settings tool (if it even has the Mantle option yet) as it always messed with my mouse/keybinds.
Edit: Nevermind, forgot to disable ULPS after reinstall which let it load although stopped responding on exit.

I think the IQ has been effected slightly,but not loss of detail, colours and brightness mostly, been testing a little of the campaign (Baka) the section where you overlook the construction area with the birds.
DIRECT X
Colours look deep on the buildings to the right, notice the ground in the distance looks clear, sun effects look different too.
MANTLE
Everything looks a little too bright perhaps? i'm not expert though.

Mantle looks less colour saturated and a slight lack of sharpness.
