Happens almost always, in every game I play, on both my desktop PC and my laptop. Both run on 10-series GeForce graphics cards and 7th+ generation i7 processor. Attempting to record the tearing with screen capture technology doesn’t show it, which suggests that the issue lies with the framerate and monitors (no vsync?). This issue happens on a 60Hz HDMI monitor, but not a 144Hz DisplayPort monitor. Here’s a video of the tearing in action:
Yeah, on Windows the compositor now implements a few special optimizations that allow tearing with vsync disabled, and we disable vsync. We will likely introduce a vsync option that would switch between current behavior and vsync-to-monitor-refresh-rate; just forcing vsync on might introduce performance issues for users with lower end GPUs where the frame time can alternate between 60Hz/30Hz (G-Sync and other variable refresh rate technologies are designed to solve that…).
Are there any upcoming changes to bring up the framerate cap? There’s an excellent application I use that unlocks the framerate and it works flawlessly, bar some in-game cutscenes, which are probably synced with the framerate
We don’t have plans to unlock the framerate cap, however with the change that I’ve mentioned that we want to do, if you have a 144 Hz monitor, and have vsync on, we’d run at 144 Hz if your PC can handle it…
If the game can run without the framerate cap I don’t see a reason for there to be a framerate cap at all. I have a 240hz monitor and would love to see Roblox in all of those 240 frames
Isn’t screen tearing simply a fact of life for all 3D games? Sure, there’s Vsync, but that introduces input lag so I wouldn’t use it even if it were an option. So other than Vsync, I don’t think Roblox can really “fix” screen tearing.
@zeuxcg I can confirm that roblox is still having screen tearing issues. no matter what vsync setting I set it on, I have an MSI GF62 Gaming laptop with a Core i7 Coffee Lake Clocked at 4,1 GHz. an Nvidia GTX 1060 6 Gigabyte, and my screen is a 1920 x 1080 at 60 GHz. if anyone has some suggestions to try and fix this issue please let me know
I want to bump this topic as I am still getting screen tearing when in fullscreen. I’d really appreciate something like a v-sync option in the settings menu.
