am stuck on 50 sharp fps in openGL , i have thee latest drivers for my Gfx card "Nvidia Geforce 5200 FX" ive read all of the webbed posts concerning fps guides and its not my comp thats the problem, specs, 2.2 Ghz 512mb HercSX GT

im using windows XP

however, in Direct 3D i get unstable Fps from 40-80 and software runs with 49 sharp.

ive tried to use "fps_max" but after going higher than 51 it doesnt respond anymore.

windows settings, 1024x768 85Hz

in-game res, 1024x768 32-bit color OpenGL

anyone have a solution?

    You are stuck dead at 50 with no movements?

    Most likely that is your default refresh rate, download the latest GFX drivers which i think you have go into the advanced options and click on the refresh rate overide page.

    Overide the refresh rates, and set them to what you want.

    Please note you can also just turn off vsync to fix this problem, but this produces tearing in games and should only be used as a last resort.

    tried overiding.... no effect what so ever still at dead 50 fps....

    it doesnt matter how many turrets or marine/alien buildings with las vegas light there are, i have never had any "fps lag" by that my pc cant handle.

    already got the latest drivers , tried both NVlock & nvrefresh , tried to play with older drivers which didnt work either....

    my screen can handle as max 1280x1024 60hz -Although- i use 1024x768 85hz in windows and 1024x768 in NS and other games , another weird thing is that i can get 72 fps in UT04

    note that wheni play in D3D my fps goes roller coaster between 40-80... only thing left taht i cans ee is turning Vsync off , could you tell me how?

    Its found under the performance and quality settings tab, change it from application controlled to off. Also make sure you set FPS max to your refresh rate or 100, since i think you have left it set at 50.

    Using the post from Jasp.

    Click on Performance and Quality settings then click on Vertical Sync > Uncheck the "Application Controlled" box and slid over to Off if it isn't there already.
