New features

  • Windows performance monitor resync button on "Overlay" tab. Can be used to solve 0 memory counter issues (VRAM, system RAM usage global/per game).

Enhancements

  • Updated PresentMon to version 1.7.0
  • Better filtering of PresentMon processes (more stable app detection)
  • Better detection of RAM speeds (Rocket Lake)
  • Showing current game name in capture status overlay
  • Added "CPU core powers" to overlay group control

Bug fixes

  • App crash when renaming or editing files via explorer while observing the directory (often related to network drives and editing non-CX files that create .temp files)
  • Overlay gets displayed on capture start when the auto-disable option is active but the overlay was already disabled before
  • Comments were not saved when typed into the comment cell by directly clicking into the edit box area (without selecting the row)
  • PresentMon error when trying to start multiple instances of CX (captures were not saved even when the process list still showed a process, required a rescan)
  • Error with automatic GPU detection on newer Nvidia drivers (GPU name shows "NVIDIA NVIDIA ....")

  • Support for Intel 11th gen Rocket Lake CPUs

Enhancements

  • Capture service performance optimization
  • Values for the capture timers are now decoupled from the general overlay refresh period
  • Changed group control toggle buttons for overlay and sensor items to separate buttons
  • Record comments can now be changed directly in the comment cells of the record list

  • Report page column selection
  • 0-30ms y-axis scale option on Analysis tab

Bug fixes

  • "GPU RPM" sensor not refreshing
  • "Used Memory Game" sensor showing 0.00GB in some titles
  • Capture directory expander gets cut off at the bottom when root folder path has two lines
  • Maximized window state gets overwritten to windowed when sending CX to tray
  • Rare capture failure and crash occuring when capture hotkey is registered twice within a few milliseconds(capture hotkey is now blocked for 250ms after each press)

Update 12 February 2021

  • Fixed portable, missing components

New features

  • Option to auto turn off overlay when capturing frametimes to reduce impact on the results.
  • New Sensor page to freely set the sensors that will be logged in benchmarks (Analysis page only shows the basic sensors, Sensor page shows all)
  • Custom resolution chart export for line graphs on Analysis, Comparison and Synchronization page via context menu (resolution can be set under global options)
  • Added "GPU FPS/10W" to metrics and changed "CPU FPS/W" to "CPU FPS/10W" (better visibility for bar charts)
  • Added "Used Memory Game", "GPU Memory Dedicated Game" and "GPU Memory Shared Game" to sensors to log the memory usage of the specific games
  • Memory sensor for AMD cards provided by ADL (equivalent to NvAPI)
  • Experimental support for Intel Rocket Lake CPUs

Enhancements

  • Sensors that are neither used while logging nor displayed in the overlay won't be updated to further minimize performance impact
  • Improved hotkey handling (example: Hotkey "X" now also responds to modifier combinations like "Shift+X" as long as there is no other hotkey using that exact combination)
  • "Copy/paste" option for Record lists context menu
  • User config is now saved as JSON in the Documents folder to be persistent when installing new versions.
  • Record list search bar now also works with comment lines
  • General performance optimization

Bug fixes

  • Possible Hotkey sound delay
  • Legends on Comparison page may still be visible even if toggled off
  • Missing power and VRAM (dedicated memory) sensor for AMD GPUs

CapFrameX v1.5.7 beta Pre-release
Pre-release

New features

  • Auto turn off overlay when capturing frametimes to reduce impact on the results. (added Nov. 13th)

Enhancements

  • Copy/paste capture files to another folder within CX (added Nov. 2nd)
  • Individual control of sensors via the overlay configuration. Specific sensors can be switched off. This concerns for example the GPU power sensor on Nvidia Pascal cards. This sensor can cause frametime spikes. (added Nov. 2nd)

Bug fixes

  • Process list refresh error, failed to capture frametimes after closing process
  • Hotkey sound delay (added Oct. 25th)

Important notes

  • To use the portable version the installer must run first to ensure all frameworks are installed.

New features

  • Added experimental support for AMD Zen 3 CPUs
  • Added CXRemote compatibility for remotely starting and stopping captures through clients (CXR remote interface)
  • Added "Low FPS" to the stuttering pie chart showing the time that wasn't considered stuttering but still below a customizable FPS threshold
  • Added hotkey to toggle through the different overlay configurations

Enhancements

  • Decimals can now be used for capture time
  • More precise capture time
  • Better GPU VRAM performance counter handling
  • More entries can be displayed on the overlay at once
  • Resolution info on Report page and copy data in current language culture

Bug fixes

  • No GPU power sensor (Nvidia graphics cards) when using latest driver
  • App crash on capture when entering invalid characters in the capture time box
