Is this locked to 30 fps like DR 3?

[RTX 5080 FE(Mr Happy)]

DR 3 is locked to 30 fps and is unplayable for me at 30 fps. Does this also suffer a 30 fps lock?

Create new text document in dead rising 3's root folder where the .exe is
Open new text document and put "gmpcr_unlock_frame_rate = True"

Launch game

Turn V-Sync on

Open the game and go to options, then visual settings. Set the resolution to 1080p(60hz)

This SHOULD make dead rising 3 go from locked 30 to 60 fps. (if you dont do the last step, itll be 120 fps which breaks the game).


With that info said for those who might need it, Dead rising 2 runs at 60 fps without doing anything special. Cutscenes will run at 30 fps no matter what.

I play on a 4k monitor. Can I set it to 4k or must I use 1080p? I know the game is older, but I prefer to play on the monitors native res. Also thanks for the info.

Darn that's the 100 percent verified fix for 30>60fps. It worked on my end.

if you create the ini file and it's still not working, make sure you've got file extensions visible in Windows by clicking the 'View tab' in windows explorer then ticking the box next to "File name extensions" as you might have created user.ini.txt not user.ini


^^^^ If the above isn't the issue, then i honestly don't know what it could be

Awesome! From what I recall the entire game ran pretty well using 60, maybe a few visual bugs here and there but I can't really remember. Anyways Dead rising 2 should just work 60 fps out of the box so there's none of this ini BS to mess with. happy gaming.
