Half Refresh Rate vSync Option and More Appreciation Thread

This thread is for those who are so glad vsync has a half option! Even if you're on a nice IPS, even if it only does 60hz, if you needed this option, let Rockstar and game industry know you are glad it was there!

 

http://gtaforums.com/topic/781151-give-me-a-toggleable-30fps-frame-limiter/

 

I want to just express my thanks to anyone in my very favorite development camp for including this and all of the settings you opened up. I have never seen such a complete settings menu. Maybe Age of Conan, but no, I think that is even limited in comparison for my choices available in GTA V!

 

Thank you Rockstar for letting me choose 30fps ultra or 60fps high/very high! Thank you!

 

PS: I dislike txaa and fxaa and I prefer mfaa + msaa 4x with fxaa and txaa both disabled! That's for anyone who wants to try out some different aa settings!

Yep, the half-refresh rate option is definately useful; Im runing at 60fps normal v sync myself but it's good to have the choice for constant 30fps with beefy graphics, besides, you get used to 30fps after a while and it looks fine!

If you have an Nvidia card you can use nvidiaInspector to set half Vsync or fps limits.

there is always Msi afterburner too, which you can use to limit frame rates and worka on AMD cards as well.

It looks fine til you see it at higher frames again and your like "aahhhhh :))"

 

But ofc, its always nice to have options there.

 

I make good use of adaptive (half) vsync in nV control panel when gaming at @4k. Some games are fine to do 60fps, and those that wobble in between just get capped at 30fps, keeps the tears away anyway =)

In my opinion the last patch ruined all great optimization, and it hits especially people with very average rigs, before update I had 40fps in Franklin's house, now I have 28 in the same scenery, game is unplayable now, I had to switch over to dx10 and turn off most of details to recover previous framerate.

Update seemed to actually help my FPS a little, surprisingly. And I have mostly all settings on max.

I use half-sync for my game. I have everything on Very High-Ultra with a stable 30fps, and I couldn't be happier.... well, maybe if I could achieve 60 at ultra I'd be a little bit happier. :p
