Setting frame rate higher than 60 seemingly does nothing #165

Simply put, I've edited the game config.ini located in documents to change the frame rate to 144. I am aware this is probably going to cause issues, but seeing as re4_tweaks allows me to change the cap, I figured why not. That aside, I have enabled and configured the necessary settings in dinput8.ini, the tweak configuration, yet the game is still hard locked to 60fps and, consequently, running at less than half speed. It is perceivable from the main menu and even more obvious upon loading a save. I have made sure the following settings are correct (and every combination you can think of for them all):

The only way I see any change whatsoever is if either FixDisplayMode or IgnoreFPSWarning are set to False, as those force the game to lock back to either 30 or 60 internally and run at full speed again.

Eh, that config.ini is part of the base game, not anything added by re4_tweaks, not really sure why they let people change the framerate there when it doesn't actually work properly..

There is https://github.com/nipkownix/re4_tweaks/pull/50 which can fix the slowdown & allow higher framerates, but like others have posted there it's pretty buggy right now, of course anyone willing to try it out and document the issues they find would still be appreciated though, the latest build of that PR can be found here (though it's missing a few of the latest re4_tweaks additions): https://github.com/nipkownix/re4_tweaks/pull/50#issuecomment-1048824164

E: posted a new version of 1.7.5 with those framerate patches here: https://github.com/nipkownix/re4_tweaks/pull/50#issuecomment-1098605608
