Uncapping 62 framerate lock
I have a 980ti and a 144 monitor so i would really like to play arkaham asylum at 144hz. But i cant get the fps lock off. I tried going to bSmooth framerate and set it to false and it didnt work. I then set it too true and changed maximum fps to 144 still no change. Any other possible fixes`?

Did you make the file read-only after changing it?

After saving it, right click on it, then click "properties". There should be a check box that says "Read-only". Make the file read-only, that way the game can't change it back.

Did you only change one ini file and which one.

I changed the one called defaultengine.ini, found where the smoothing etc. is and only changed this file, saved, then put it to read only and it worked.

I didn't change the other engine file

I'm having the same problems - I've set smoothframerate to false and changed the mix and max values to be 0 and 144. I've made the defaultengine.ini and bmengine.ini files read only after making these changes, but still the game caps at 60fps.

Has anyone had any success in removing the cap in version 1.1?

First, make sure V-Sync is disabled in-game.

Navigate to

C:\Users\YOURNAME\Documents\Square Enix\Batman Arkham Asylum GOTY\BmGame\Config

Open BmEngine.ini (might just be called BmEngine depending on Windows filename settings)

CTRL + F and search for "bSmoothFrameRate=", by default it will be set as 'TRUE'

Change this to 'FALSE'

or

Keep it set to true and below set the "MaxSmoothedFrameRate=" to your monitors refresh rate +2.

So if you have a 144Hz monitor, it should look like this...

MaxSmoothedFrameRate=146.000000

With either fix you do, make sure you set the file as read-only, otherwise the game will default back to the 62 fps cap.

Personally I have the bSmoothFrameRate= set to false and in the NVIDIA Control Panel for the game I use half rate adaptive sync.
