Revive: Lucky's Tale stutters when launched through Steam

Created on 13 Apr 2016  路  4Comments  路  Source: LibreVR/Revive

The patch worked flawlessly and I was able to boot the game without issue. But I have very bad stuttering issues when moving the camera. If I hold my head still, the game runs butter smooth.

System Specs:
i5 6500k @ 4.5 Ghz
R9 290 Vapor X @ 1100 Mhz
16 GB GDDR4 @ 3000 Mhz

CPU, Ram, and GPU running around 30-50% during the game. The onscreen left eye copy of the video on the desktop is smooth during headtracking. Only happening in the headset. Let me know if you need anymore information.

I had the same issue when launching the game from inside steamvr (added as a non-steam game). When I closed it and directly launched LT.exe from the desktop the problem went away.

I suspect this is a computer performance issue. The LT patch works for me, but in DCS I get tracking stuttering if I bump the graphic quality way up. What score does your PC get in the SteamVR Performance Test? Do you have clean tracking in SteamVR games?

@mcassano Yeah I get clean tracking in SteamVR games. I get a score in the low to mid Green area. I forget the number score though. It looks like PaulKlinger has found the root cause.

@PaulKlinger You are exactly right! When I launch directly from the LT.exe everything is perfect, no stuttering for head movement. But launching from Steam by adding it as a non-steam game causes the issue to return. That narrows down the reasoning for the issue quite a bit.

Revive now has SteamVR integration, it will be part of the next release.
