FPS capped at 70 FPS, how to change?
I came back to the game. Haven't played it in a loooooooooooooooooong time. I have a RTX 4090 and 12700k. So conclusion: max it all! Vsync is off and FPS cap is 240 (max). No matter what i do, the game caps my FPS at 70. What can i do to uncap it? :O
Using DLAA and Frame Generation.

Turn off FrameGen, seems to be kind of broken at the moment. Once I turned it off my FPS shot back up to the 200s on a 4080.

There is an option now to increase and decrease FPS.

Weird. You could try disabling Global V-sync for the game through Nvidia's control panel. Other than that, no idea what could be the problem. Maybe try out the experimental branch of the game on Steam.

Good one! Tried that one as well, about a minute ago. Still no fix :( sad times. Thank you for your advice though!

Does your monitor support higher then 60fps?
And if so, does windows know your monitor supports that?
NMS reads a lot of the monitor info from windows's API's, so if windows believes you have a 60hz monitor, NMS is gonna behave as if that is what you have.

Removing FPS cap in Nvidia Control Panel fixed it. So NMS caps 1/2 of set FPS cap in Nvidia Control Panel. Weird.

Thank you!

Weird, ive got limit in nvidia panel to 240 fps and im getting upto 240 fps on dlaa no framegen, also with frame gen but frame gen has fps drops and theres no drops without.

This doesnt help you since you solved your problem but maybe there is another reason too, anyway you can have a profile for nms and keep your cap global

Ahh k did not see that. lol So either the monitor is not up to it, or it is another game bug.

Can confirm, this fixed it for me, too. I've had my NVIDIA Control Panel capped to 140 globally for years, since I play on a 144Hz monitor with G-sync. Disabled that NVIDIA Control Panel setting for NMS and instantly fixed it. First time I've ever encountered a game with this kind of (what I assume is a) bug.

Replying in case anyone else comes searching in the future. Make sure you try this
