How to make the game run in 60 FPS
People have most likely searched for this already but I'm just gonna sticky one.
Navigate yourself to this folder.
C:\Users\*PC Name*\Documents\My Games\Alice Madness Returns\AliceGame\Config

on Linux it'll be: /SteamLibrary/steamapps/common/Alice Madness Returns/AliceGame/Config/DefaultEngine.ini

You'll find a file
AliceEngine.ini

Do a Ctrl + F on MaxSmoothedFrameRate

There are 2 lines of this. Change both of them.

It should be on 31 as default. Change it to 60. Well you change it to whatever you want. My monitor only have 60Hz so there is no point for me in going higher.

Now the game runs much smoother and is far more fun to play. Haven't noticed any problems while using it.

Well if you're gonna go over 60 I'd suggest you turn off Vsync as well.
UseVsync=True
To
UseVsync=False

I get tearing with it off so I'm keeping mine on.

Thanks, noticed this right away as soon as I had control of the cursor.

This might also be handy for someone, I was starting to get the all to familiar ache between my eyes that tells me of portage FoV. I used the advice in the link below and no more aching. I play on my TV and found the middle one to be the best, slight fisheye with the 105 one.

Nice GPU there, whats up ?

Another way is to go to C:/Program Files (x86)/Steam/SteamApps/common/Alice Madness Returns/Engine/Config, now open BaseEngine.ini; as the OP said, do a Ctrl + F and search "MaxSmoothedFramerate" (without quotations), change this number to whatever framerate you want.

Overkill for a platformer like this, but good to know it works :P

Nonesense, if you have a 144 Hz screen you should utilize it when possible.

All this does is smoothen the game out and nothing more.

Well I understand the utilization part, I'm just saying that for anything ouside of CS:GO or similar, the extra FPS probably won't be beneficial, besides looking more eye-candy :P

Thank you!
60 fps makes the hair a little ♥♥♥♥♥. It travels behind Alice very sillily.

I noticed that the higher you set it, the more finicky shooting the pig snouts becomes.
With an un-upgraded pepper shaker at 144FPS, some of the early ones are next to impossible.

Much more doable if you run at 60.

Looks like they capped it because some physics calculations are tied to the framerate (also the hair, as mentioned above)
