How to fix broken physics/game when with 60+fps?

[Mr. Beerscuit]

Seriously, years after Skyrim came out and it still have this problem? 144hz monitors, 90hz VR... Bethesda please?
So is there any solution to play the game with higher fps with no problems?

enigne is like that, you have to limit fps to 60fps if you want to avoid physics bugs. i dont thing theres a way around it, engine is just like that....

In Skyrim.ini add this line under
[HAVOK]
fMaxTime=0.0333 is for 30fps, may help performance on slow computers
fMaxTime=0.0166 is for 60fps
fMaxTime=0.0133 is for 75fps
fMaxTime=0.0111 is for 90fps
fMaxTime=0.0083 is for 120fps
fMaxTime=0.0069 is for 144fps
fMaxTime=0.0042 is for 240fps+
and
[Display]
iVSyncPresentInterval=0


or look up 120 FPS fix for Skyrim Second Edition. The physics is tied to 60FPS and you need to adjust it by adding [HAVOK] to My Documents>My games>Skyrim Second Ediion Skjyrim.ini and the corresponding fMaxTime for your monitor, fMaxTime=0.0083 for 144Hz.

You should be alright at 70fps but you'll need an external application to cap it at 70. Anything more and the havok Engine can't handle it because the fps is tied to Havok Physics. It's not directly bethesda's fault for the problem, it's just their mistake for still using the Havok Physics engine. It'd be revolutionary for them to write their own physics engine that operates the same as Havok but removes the Physics and Frames Per Second link.

This. This works, I can confirm.

Playing at 90 with no problem at all, not even the little wiggletwitches of loose items.

I'm going to try this! At 60 for some reason I get sick after playing for some time. Thanks!

When I see something like this I shake my head and smile. any fps faster than 60 is a total waste. The human brain can't tell the difference at a fps greater than 60 so why waste your time.

That's a long debunked myth. The human eye doesn't see in Frames, and when trained can easily see differnces in fps well above 150. Formula 1 drivers, fighter pilots, and yes gamers generally are able to tell these differnces.

The problem isn't with physic engine (Havok) but with script engine - Papyrus. But atm there is no any fix for this. Changing settings for Havok prevent objects for "jumping" but stills they acting pretty strange (e.x. some of them might be stick to some objects or levitate).

[Skybrander]

Yep that fix worked for me too.

That's just not true. I'm sorry.

[Tenshinen]

Source uses Havok yet supports framerates of up to 300.

Do you need to limit your FPS for this? Because if i try it with unlocked FPS (sometimes 200+) my game glichtches out like always no matter which value I set fMaxTime to ):

Yes, you must limit your FPS to whatever corresponding preset you use.

So, if you set FmaxTime to .0069, for example, you need to cap your framerate at 144.
