Strange frame rate (60hz) on Mac with promotion (120hz)
First of all, I want to thank the developers for making the Mac much faster - if it actually works. I'm using a Macbook Pro M2Max to play this game, and my Mac has a 120Hz display.

However, unfortunately, despite the TRYP game's OSD showing a frame rate of 140 FPS in gameplay, I feel significant stuttering. As someone accustomed to high refresh rates, I immediately realized that the actual refresh rate of the game is nowhere close to 120.

So, I used my iPhone's slow-motion feature (240fps) to record the game and observed the frames frame by frame on the computer. I realized that it takes about four or five frames captured by the iPhone before the screen on the Mac changes completely once. This suggests that the true refresh rate is approximately around 50-60fps. Unfortunately, even though my Mac boasts a refresh rate of up to 120 frames, the game is not utilizing it properly.
It's important to understand that refresh rate is crucial for FPV pilots, especially for those of us who are sensitive to it. I use DJI's 100Hz goggles for flying, and a delay of 30-40ms or a refresh rate of 60hz is already enough to make me uncomfortable.

I truly appreciate the effort the developers have put into optimizing for Mac, but please address the frame rate issue as soon as possible to provide us with a perfect experience on Mac.

=========================

After further testing, I have confirmed that the frame rate issue only occurs in Fullscreen mode. When I set the display to frameless or windowed mode and recorded it in slow motion, I confirmed that the game can display properly at 120Hz. I am using the 14.0 Beta system, and using the frameless mode activates the game mode on the Mac, resulting in improved performance. I recommend other players to also use this mode.

So it's okay for me now.
