Sky: Children of the Light

Sky: Children of the Light

Let us get more than 60 fps
I know exactly that if you have a monitor that is more than 60 Hz you will be able to see it more fps
(The game options let you do that)

But since I have a monitor that only gives 60 Hz, it doesn't let me run it at higher fps, it is limited to only 60 and that gives me performance issues

We are on PC, is it so difficult to add an option to unlock more fps even if we cannot see it?

Seriously it would help a lot.

You will need the hardware that supports it to be able to use it. Else your monitor will be skipping the frames it can't process and the sync with the graphic output will become "off", where you might ended up seeing some super speed up frame skip or frame freeze depending on the output and sync.

On consoles and other pre-built machines/devices. These seldom happens because devs can easily predict the outcome and code the game accordingly. But for PC, the combinations is limitless, so without putting a limit on the code, the game will run in a weird or unintended ways, like speed up so fast that you won't be able to play it anymore. That's why the FPS limit is in place in the 1st place, where it also decides how many (milli)seconds it takes for the code to run per cycle. Already this game have bugs caused by FPS difference (eg Wind Trail), and some stuffs are more stable when you play it at 30 FPS for certain players. So if you're having problem with 60, you might want to try 30 instead and not higher.

You're probably asking for the wrong thing, FPS limits don't do that. Your actual problem is probably vsync, which this game turns on unconditionally:

If your system is just about capable of getting 60 FPS in Sky, oftentimes dropping below that, disabling vsync might help. Framerate won't get higher, but it should get smoother.

The good news is that you can likely force-disable it using your GPU's control panel. How to do that exactly depends on what graphics card brand you're using. You're probably better off searching the web for guides.

A proper solution would of course be a toggle in-game.
