How to unlock FPS

This guide will show you how to remove the 30FPS lock without experiencing too many issues during the gameplay.

Warning!

In very few parts of the game unlocking the FPS may causes the game to crash as soon as it tries to go to the loading screen. As far as I am aware this happens only during the Alien Ship part. You need to lock the FPS again to play these parts. (Just change ''false'' back to ''true'')

However I still recommend unlocking the FPS as it just looks way better and the places having this problems are very few.

Edit the config.ini file

To remove the 30FPS cap edit the config.ini in the following folder:

\Steam\steamapps\common\South Park - The Stick of Truth

Just add "vsync = false" (without quotes) at the bottom of the [Engine.Render] section. Don't forget to save the changes in the file.

Activate V-Sync in your graphics driver

Open your graphics card control panel. Go to the section where you can set specific settings for games. Make sure you select the South Park game. Activate V-Sync in your graphics driver for South Park. This will lock your FPS to your monitors refresh rate.

Important: If you don't activate V-Sync in your graphics driver, the game will run at ridiculously high amounts of FPS, causing all kind of weird issues during gameplay.

This screenshot shows what to do on an Nvidia graphics card. The AMD control panel may looks a bit different:

This is a double edged sword, but reader if you'd like a proper run down of what this does and not people going "DIS R DUMB!" then here you go:

Upping the frame rate obviously makes it more tolerable and less slow, it also helps with things like the roshambow skill that is absolutely TERRIBLE where it was designed for a aster rate (only reason its 30 fps is because the game is unfinished and rushed, people can say "its because its supposed to be like the show! but no it wasnt, ALL the beta builds were 60fps when under THQ). However, they have also tied certain things to that frame rate now, like animations and such so upping the frame rate WILL affect those things, it might also affect certain minigames like the abortion.

i see no real reason, it supposed to be like original animation. Why bother? Low FPS does no eyebleeding effect in this game.
