"Unlocking" your FPS

"Unlocking" your FPS

So, I've been having some performance issues, mainly in terms of low FPS-rate. Don't know if this common knowledge, but for me it was news when a guy I played with earlier today told me how I could "unlock" my FPS for an increased rate. The maximum for me used to be 62. Now it's 120 with an average of 70-80. Needless to say, the smoothness is amazing. If you'd like to do this as well, here's what you need to do:

1. For Windows go to: Documents\My Games\Chivalry Medieval Warfare\UDKGame\Config
For linux, the file is: ~/.local/share/TornBanner/Chivalry/UDKGame/Config/Linux-UDKEngine.ini
2 Open UDKEngine.ini
3. Ctrl+F and typ "framerate"
4. Set bSmoothFrameRate=TRUE
5. Set MinSmoothedFrameRate=0
6. Set MaxSmoothedFrameRate=120
7. Launch game, feel the smoothness

This has no effect whatsoever on my system (AMD cpu and Radeon video). just doesn't work for me in unreal engine in general as on Rising Storm 2, fps still capped at 62. i tried both 120 and -1 as mentioned for maxsmoothedframerate, no difference. (Also, bsmoothframerate was already 'true' and minsmoothedframerate already 0 in both game ini files)

Just search Set bSmoothFrameRate in UDKEngine.ini if you have the same problem i did with the search refusing to find the given search "framerate" #noobshelpingnoobs
