Target FPS in in-game settings is ghosted

[jaygee485]

Firstly, I'm not claiming that this is a technical issue, but it is a difficulty I'm having.

 

The sim is working well for me with graphics set to 'ultra', and looks really good, but the  frame rate is stuck on 60 fps. I would like to see what difference a higher frame rate would make, and I'm sure my system is good enough to handle that.  

I have set my monitor target frame rate to it's OC limit at 120 fps, and I would like to do the same in the in-game graphics settings. However, the 'Target FPS' field in Settings is ghosted, with no clickable arrow displayed as for all the other settings fields.

 

Is there a simple solution to enable me to adjust the in-game target frame rate?

untick vsync (that is keeping your fps at 60) and youll be able to adjust target fps then to what you wont

Well that sounds like the simple solution I was after! I do have Vsync on, as advised in more than one post I've read.

Thanks Count, I'll go away and try out your suggestion.

 

Edit: Just as you said, after I unchecked Vsync the Target FPS field unghosted itself and I was able to enter my target frame rate. I then had a flight in an Me 109, only to find the frame rate was still locked on 60. ? 

Maybe someone has another suggestion.......?
