60 FPS cap #363

Open Zilibobka-S opened 4 weeks ago

swayfx version 0.4-5f42307 (Sep 26 2024, branch 'master') (based on sway 1.9.0) Config: https://gist.github.com/Zilibobka-S/3dc11b22270e699f6264578914bd9e08

I tried in games, because they start lag. So: When the game is windowed, there is no FPS cap.

But when the game is in fullscreen FPS suddenly starts capping

It's default Wayland behavior to avoid tearing. Sway 1.10 lets you enable tearing (and thus unlock your FPS) with allow_tearing option, but swayFX is currently 1.9-based and you can't really do anything on it. There is the max_render_time option that you can set to a lower value like 6 to increase your FPS but it's not a substitute for tearing, most games won't run smoothly with it.
