So I'd like to cap my FPS on 145FPS (otherwise it might only reach 143FPS (at least that's how it is in any other game)), but in recent FROM games that would cause MANY issues. Is that still the case here? Are there any things that could happen while playing the game at >60FPS? I've heard the jumping is shorter (sounds true, cuz capping the FPS to something lower allows you to easily skip the Ogre boss-fight).
This will be the very last time I reply to this question, just skipping over a few pages answers this multiple times already. The games physics aren't bound to frame rate so unlocking them won't do any harm. In fact, the framerate on consoles is fluctuating without any fixed fps. There was no reason at all for FromSoftware to even include a frame lock in the first place. Thousands of players have completed the game with unlocked frame rate already, nobody has reported any problems or bugs.
If you are using G-Sync/FreeSync you should however cap your frame rate a few fps below your refresh rate or G-Sync /FreeSync will turn itself off before you even hit your max refresh rate. On a 144Hz Monitor you should cap to 138 fps. battle(non)sense had a video on that: https://youtu.be/L42nx6ubpfg?t=378 This is true for basically all G-Sync games.
due to how the game renders the HUD is limited to 16:9 even on 21:9 resolutions
FromSoft hardcoded the "red vignettes" to 16:9, you can remove them by replacing shaders but there is nothing I can do about it without modifying game files.
Got it working perfectly with fps unlock, custom res and GSYNC on app version 1.06 Note I got a "version 1.6.0" warning when first patching the game, but still works fine.
Followed the instructions exactly, including GSYNC section, with the addition of a few tweaks from the troubleshooting section: - had to 'disable fullscreen optimizations' in the exe properties - had to force VSYNC ON in the game's NVCP settings - also make sure to start the game first, then this mod.
Everything else followed the mod how-to. I'm on a 2070 Super with current driver (545.84). Not using Reshade, etc., nothing crazy.
Also note you can hit 'Display > Gsync indicator' in NVCP to help test. should see green 'G-SYNC' in top right.
Still working but took me a while to get framerate unlocked with no screen tearing.
I was able to finally get the frame rate unlocked with Gsync and no tearing but only in borderless. Fullscreen the frame rate does not not unlock when Vsync is set to application setting.
I managed to make it work on GOTY version , all i did was i uninstalled the game using revoUninstaller and cleaned all traces and reinstalled the game , the game got detected and working fine
Whenever I turn on the Frame Rate Lock to be above 60 fps, the game runs perfectly fine and looks great for about a minute, but then starts having horrible stuttering every couple of seconds that makes it unplayable. I've tried every VSYNC option, disabling my second monitor, setting high priority on Sekiro, updating drivers, restarting, setting the limit just under 144 (138) with Special K, and nothing seems to fix it. I switched it to Fullscreen and windowed GSync and that seemed to fix the stutters from every few seconds to maybe once every few minutes, but this fix stopped working the next day I tried it.
This happens with other FPS unlocker mods, so the mod itself is great no problems, but do you have any idea how to fix this?
EDIT: I fixed this. If anyone else is experiencing this, check to see if your CPU is overheating. My laptop was being pushed to 88/89 degrees C and thermal throttling like a mf. I fixed it by undervolting my GPU on MSI Afterburner and lowering the power limit + temp on Universal Tuning Utility.

Thanks uberhalit! Game's a beaut!
I can confirm that this method works.
