[Solved] My FPS is high..... Here comes broken physics
[Solution]
So thanks to Nazenn he/she pointed out that I can use a enb called ENBoost which has the ability to fix crashes and improve game performence. In the ENBoost theres a ability to limit the frame rate which by default is set to 60 FPS (Which is the max FPS before physics break). Simply edit the ENBlocal.ini (The one you replaced with ENBoost) and find
[Limiter] which under it has a option called "EnableFPSLimit". Simply set it to true and save. Now the problem should be solved. Thank you guys for all the help! Your a great community :D

[For Nvidia Users (Like me) and the ones who don't want to use ENBoost but also have Nvidia GPU]
Simply download NVIDIA Inspector ver 1.9.7.2 (http://hw-lab.com/nvidia-inspector.html). Then launch it, click on the Tools crossing each other (A Wrench and Screw Driver), on the top left click on the dropdown list and select The Elder Scrolls Skyrim, go down to the list till you see the Common Category, there should be a option called FPS limiter, select off and change it to 60 FPS or 59, then apply changes (Top Right) and exit. Now your done and your game should be capped to that fps! Thanks to dbgager for pointing this out for me!



As you can probaly guess.... My FPS is above 60 FPS which causes gravity and other nice things to break. For example a water splash can be heard at random times and the screen slightly flickers with what it seems like a breif moment of underwater vision. And did I mention cows falling from the sky?

[Attempted Solutions but Failed]

FPS limiter
[http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/34/? ]
It worked but came with one huge bug which pretty much is game breaking. It made my skill tree be just a black screen so its impossible to put points into any trees.

Nvidia Control Panel
I checked online and people are saying to use a program called "Nvidia Inspecter" which should come with a option to limit frame rates but for some odd reason I could not find it? Also I tried VSYNC activated and Adaptive (Half Refresh Rate) which I thought worked but did not.

Im really running out of ideas and I need someone to help me! I would thank you so much!

Also I do have mods and I do use LOOT and TESVEdit to make sure everthing works.

If you would like me to post what mods I have then please tell me the easiest way to show them instead of typing each one at a time.

- Edit: Thanks to grimus he told me the easiest way to show my mods. ( I was stupid because I use loot and I could of done it to if I looked carefully T_T )

I've always thought it automatically capped at 60. I've never touched my settings and it's always been capped at 60 regardless if I played vanilla or heavily modded.

What's your screen refresh rate?
Blue22111 Apr 9, 2015 @ 11:18pm 
Try ENB's framerate limiter. It works well for me.
Nazenn Apr 9, 2015 @ 11:27pm 
Never heard of the FPS limiter causing a graphics bug because its a SKSE plugin that doesnt touch the actual game at all, only the FPS.

Anyway, your other reliable alternative is to install and ENB, or ENBoost if you dont want the graphical enhancements, and use the limiter that is guide into that which is 100% reliable. :)

I use ENBoost and don't have those issues.

Oh. Whoops. Sorry, I got it confused with one of my other SKSE plugins, which was the FPS Counter. My mistake :)
How the heck did you make your game go above 60FPS? It has FPS cap...

And falling cows and mammoths are normal part of everyday Skyrim living :)
Nazenn Apr 10, 2015 @ 1:07am 
The game does not come with an FPS cap, it only comes with v sync which you have to enable and doesnt help if you have a monitor that goes over 60 hz.
It does not? Interesting, I played the game with any different settings options and no matter if I had Vanilla or Heavily Modded, my FPS never went above 60.
Nazenn Apr 10, 2015 @ 1:10am 
You likely turned vsync on and have a 60hz monitor then :)

I don't know how many hz my monitor has, and I never manually turned on or off VSync. I just installed the game, it detected my machine and set settings to Ultra, and that's it
SpeedFreak1972 Apr 10, 2015 @ 1:38am 
Just force it in the Nvidia drivers. I personally think your monitor is a 120 or 144hz model that would explain the framerate.
Alkpaz Apr 10, 2015 @ 1:39am 
I'll use my 3D montior more when Just Cause 3 comes out.. unless Killing Floor 2 uses it.. that would be kinda epic. :P
Hare+Guu! Apr 10, 2015 @ 6:33am 
Install a really intense enb and force your fps down. You have an adaptive sync monitor anyway, it's not like you need all 60 fps.

I did try a ENB (Seasons Of Skyrim) and it seems that when I look at one direction my game start getting horrible unplayable FPS (Like 10 or 5). Not sure why but probaly one of my mods is causing this.

Tried GeForce Experience? http://www.geforce.com/geforce-experience (i have AMD so idk)

Run LOOT (v. 6.1 Stable): http://loot.github.io/
Click Game tab, select Skyrim
Sort Plugins
Click Apply, new window should pop in.
Click Details
Click Filters, checkmark first three boxes and click Fliters again.
Right click mouse button, select all, copy and paste to notepad. edit out all the line spaces, and save doc
From notepad, select all, copy and paste into Reply box. Edit out all the line spaces

We should see something like this: (depending on your mods)

Don't worry about the "Clean with..." or "Warning..." messages yet.

I do have GeForce Experience and I'll go ahead add the list of mods I have. Thanks!

I did state in my specs what is my refresh rate (But to be hoenst I could of stated it better). My refresh rate is 144hz and I coulent find out how to limit my FPS. It seemed that in NVidia control panel I found a vsync option and was able to change it do Adaptive (Half Refresh Rate) but the problem still countinued but wasent that bad as before.
