That will break the game.

Can't remove it. Skyrim physics will go wild above 60FPS. It is engine limitation.

Some players can go above it, up to 90FPS, depending on their display, system and tweaks. I sure as hell can't, with my 114hz display. I did not need to activate VSync for Skyrim SE though, which was nice.

game has to run at or below 60 fps or the games physics go psycho haha.

you don't want the game to go above 60fps. As said above it will break the game. the physics will go into overdrive and you'll have objects flying everywhere everytime you enter a cell, and/or open a door. I've been there. It's fun for a little while, but really annoying when you're trying to place things in your player homes.

Here is hoping that Jaxonz will give a go to port her Positioner.

Because that probelm exists in 60FPS game as well. Bloody annoying.

So apparently, they didn't even bother fixing that?

My question is how to enable 60FPS cap, I got 144 frames indoors (monitor's 144hz) and I dont want the game to go crazy

i think you can set it at 72 with sync every other frame., that will do.
you need to do that in windows dirversettings.
besides that i am happy at 30 fps, i see no need at all for those crasy high fps...
its all advertisement hype and ppl falling for it lol

It would require an entirely new engine. I believe the problem is even present in Fallout 4. They'd more or less need to rebuild the game from the ground up. It's not like it's an easy fix.

I have a monitor that can go up to 144hz but I have to use Nvidia Inspector to limit my FPS to 60 so items indoors don't scatter everywhere...

It's ok to go above 60 fps. The problems seems to occur, at least for me at around 90-100+ fps. So i just cap it at 90 and have had no problems since.

So how do I set the FPS higher than 60 lol?

It still borks radiant timing so times given by quests as well as the visible time of day vs what's stated in the rest menu will be different. It gets more and more out of sync the longer you play above 60 FPS.

IMO, lock it to 60, just like vanilla.
