Slaying noobs since 2007.

Thanks, Igg. BTW, you are amazing, I never knew how many forums, you have left your mark on, it's just astounding.

Kiss-ass...xD

Lol, yeah, Igg contributes to his fellow comrades many a times. I'm surprised he's not a moderator yet. He would be a good one at that.

Indeed, he would be, but then we'd be the first ones to get the boot. :/

Anyway, I don't know how much time Iggwilv spends frequenting the forums, so maybe he wouldn't be suited to moderating considering his time spent here which may be limited.

good fix, but i run in windowed mode because my native resolution isnt supported and windowed mode gives me the closest resolution with the widest FOV,

so i cant really take advantage of this quick fix, would like a long term fix still

In full screen mode, this worked like a champ. In fact it helped with several problems, one of which I hadn't even noticed was a problem.

Other things forcing vSync solved:
- Choppiness on some maps (eg. Turf). For some reason, my frames remain high on these maps but they always played choppy. As soon as I forced vSync, this choppiness completely went away.

- (The one I hadn't noticed) When I'd stick, assassinate, splatter or carjack someone, I often wouldn't get the message on the screen with the medal icon saying "You have [stuck/assassinated/splattered/carjacked] Player!". Once vSync force was on, I see those messages every time.

Yes he updated the trhread to say to say that it only works in fullscreen mode.

The problem with being a mod is you have to go into ALL the forums and read their posts.

*shivers*

I usually don't venture outside the MAW and the Septagon. I'd do it if they asked because I'm all about making the community better but it's a thankless job; for a meager amount of recognition and orange type you have to put up with a lot of crap.

Indeed--the moderators are truly the unsung heroes.

I have played shadowrun and when I unlock the vsync I get the same problem. but when its on I have none. I have vsync locked at 60 for halo 2 and it still its not great. I do have my mouse on high sensitivity and I like it this way. I want to know if there is a way to get the frames locked lower at 30. I know there is no setting in the game to bring the refresh rate any lower then 60. Why I want it at 30 is because shadowrun locks it at this and it works well. I think that when they made this game they put a fix on it so people who were getting high frame rates would not get an edge on the low ones. Thats why I think they locked the vsync on shadow run at 30.

v-sync locks the fps to the refresh rate and in game the lowest setting is 60. I want to get it down to 30 if possible

( if you run fraps in the back you can see your fps)
