| Summary | 0004034: Vsync and triple buffering | ||||
| Description | With vsync enabled, certain graphical effects reduce framerates below where they'd be if vsync was disabled. I've noticed this with the fire effect from one of the low-level enemies. My framerate drops from 50-60 to 30 fps. But if I pause and disable vsync, the framerate goes back up to 45-50. Changing to static skies has no effect. This is with an ATI 6970 and i5-2500K. Is it possible to enable triple buffering to mitigate this problem? | ||||

Unfortunately, Unity 3D, the engine we use, doesn't support that. They use double buffering, but that's all they have. However, I think that some of the graphics cards have ways in which you can set triple buffering to override. |

D3DOverrider is your new best friend. It lets you force v-sync and/or triple buffering on anything that uses Direct3D, which is handy for the many things that don't include that option for whatever silly reason. |

Yeah, he mentioned that on QT3, too -- awesome stuff, and it apparently works just great here. |
