Question / Help Stutter during stream, only in Rocket League

[JakeDaSoup]

Whenever im playing Rocket League and have OBS open it limits RL to about 80-120 fps and have micro stutters every second or so,(I play at 1440p @144hz) its like the game keeps catching up to itself. This is only a problem in rocket league and havent had this issue in any other game.

PC Specs:
Gtx 1080
I7 7700
16gb DDR4 @ 3200mhz

Thank you for help in advance:D

Had the same issue with similar specs. Couldnt resolve it completely but what helped was to limit the fps to 60 ingame. I know it's a pain, especially when you only play with 144Hz. Maybe it is worth a try.


Kind Regards

yup Maggi is correct. if you are pursuing perfect smoothness there is few more things to set. check this list and don't ignore anything

1. 60hz desktop refresh
Replace with 59,94 only for HDMI TV used as monitor.
If you have 144hz monitor its fastest and most reliable to forget about 144hz and follow 1,2,3,4
2. 60 or 30 in OBS (59,94 or 29,97 only for HDMI TV)
3. 60 in game if there is switch for it (like bf3, bf4, overwatch) - 59,94 only for HDMI TV
4. Enable vsync in game
5. Run obs as administrator
6. Enable high performance mode in windows power options
7. On Win10 disable game mode, game bar and game DVR https://i.imgur.com/7CVH7c5.png
8. Make sure your gpu can do stable 60fps in game without being maxed. OBS needs some of gpu resources as well. If you did points 1+4 and its still maxed lower resolution and/or details.
9. Install Afterburner (or pure RTSS+HW Info) to monitor cpu/gpu load and start experimenting with tuning resolution / fps / x264 preset. GPU/CPU load should not exceed 85-90% during game+streaming/recording session

Thanks for the quick response!:) I will try this next time and get back to the thread with an answer. Limiting to 60 isn't the end of the world I suppose.
