Frame Rate Limit not working

[Krazon]

I havent played this game for years and decided to buy the ultimate edition to play it with some friends but now im stuck to 60 fps which is unplayable for me.

Even tho i've set the frame rate limit to unlimited in the graphics settings and vsync to off I cant get more than 60fps on my 165hz monitor.

For some reason the frame rate limiter works if i limit it to a lower value than 60.

60 fps is literally unplayable.

Maybe check your GPU driver, thw game migth be locked to 60 or something

Every game runs fine with more than 60 fps.

Im simply used to higher frame rates than 60. I could play a 3rd person game with locked 60fps but not a 1st person shooter.

Try finding your renderer_settings.xml file. Users>You>AppData>Local>Payday 2. Open with notepad++. you should see this at about line 100 with different values depeding on your hardware and settings.

<renderer_config>
<d3d_device
adapter = "NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1070"
adapter_index = "0"
resolution = "3440 1440"
windowed = "false"
refresh_rate = "120"
aspect_ratio = "2.38889"
v_sync = "1"

Your refresh rate is probably set to 60. Edit the refresh rate accordingly.

Yes 60 is unplayable for a first person shooter.
It feels slow and sluggish.
I need at least 90fps.

Have you ever tried playing on a monitor with a higher refresh rate than 60hz?

Omg! Thanks! I can finally enjoy the game again!
