Frame Rate issues on a 144hz monitor.
Is there a way to limit the framerate of this game? I got a 144hz monitor and now the game trys to play at the full 144hz and its like playing the game in fast forward.

yes, i have a 144hz g-sync lcd and agree it's way too fast. You could use a program like MSI Afterburner to limit the FPS to 60 fps.

Further info: I tried this and it's obvious the game was designed for 60 fps. The devs need to add a FPS cap option in the game to limit the FPS to 60.

Yeah totally, I'm surprised they haven't already added a cap to this game as this kind of makes Hucast seem like a hack developer. In order for me to play the game at the intended speed I have to manually set my refresh rate from 144hz to 60hz in the NVIDIA display options control panel. So it's not like it's impossible to play the game nor is it a taxing solution, but it's just plain annoying to have to deal with every time I want to play it. Especially considering its the only game I have on Steam that has this issue.

An easier way would be to download Nvidia Profile Inspector: https://ci.appveyor.com/project/Orbmu2k/nvidiaprofileinspector/build/artifacts

This software shows all of the hidden settings for Nvidia cards, including the frame rate limiter. Just unzip the archive anywhere and run it, then create a new profile for Redux, link Redux.exe with the profile, and set the frame rate limit to 60.

Then you can leave your monitor's refresh at 144 and still play the game at the intended speed.
