Anyone else getting consistent screen tearing?

Its kinda making stardew difficult to play, since its so obtrusive...

Yes. For me this started on 1.5 and is still present in 1.6. I have tried a great many things to no avail. I suspect there is an incompatibility with specific hardware configurations because most people don't seem to have this issue.

Have you tried forcing vsync on through your gpu?

I also have this issue. How would one "force" a vsync through the GPU? Ive already got vsync turned on. Without mods.

Oh ♥♥♥♥ it worked! Thank you good citizen!
For others wondering: Open your gpu control panel, under the "manage 3d settings" menu item select the "program settings" tab. Find Stardew Valley, if it is not in the list of programs you may need to browse to it, I did.
In the program specific settings set Vsync to always on and cap framerate to 60.
Leave the Vsync option in-game to off and allow the gpu to do it.

just get a monitor with freesync/gsync and never worry about screen tearing ever again. You can get a pretty cheap monitor that has Freesync if money is an issue. I haven't seen a single screen tearing for about 5 years now lol. It's worth it!

[Comrade Petrovsky]

Yeah that may be part of the issue. My monitor is around 14 years old. lol

Hey following up, apparantly when i re-did my drivers a few months ago it gave Nvidia settings precedence over everything else so... That worked, yay. Thanks!

Had this issue when adding mods into 1.6. Fixed it by turning on Vsync from my GPU settings. & Having it on in stardew
