In the sim. Graphics settings. Above that FPS setting. In the Nvidia Ap set Vsync ON.

I’m finally able to go into the sim. V-Sync is greyed out, it shows off but since it’s grayed out I can’t turn it on. I’ve never been good at this kind of stuff.

That's a weird one. What video card do you have and what driver?

I'm going to assume it's a driver issue.

I have a GeForce RTX 5080 with driver 591.74 which Jetline installed when they built the PC.

WOW! Nice card.

Let me know if locked @30 fps feels good to you.

Do you see half refresh rate?

Watch a video on how to enable vsync via nvidia cp for now.

It’s butter smooth but I see red in the boxes despite high fps. I’ll post a screenshot in a few minutes.

Why is it red? I don't understand this stuff.

The red means nothing right now. You have a single thread limitation.

Do you see this info in you sim?

PM me so that we can chat. Watch some videos on YT about settings. It's not that hard. You have a great system. All you need is the right settings.

Thanks. No, mine is completely different. Should I post a screenshot?

Yes. It's hard to help you fix or explain what you should know if I'm not next to your computer. That's why I want you to watch some videos on YT. There's a ton of videos that explain the settings and what they mean. Then you can play with the settings until you get the results you want. But, I'll try to help you as much as I can.

Sorry for jumping in... as stated above, the red means nothing..

If you would like to limit your framerates, there are various ways, but start with this:

In the sim, hit esc, then Settings

As seen on the screenshot below, this would limit at 60.. try this first.

If you can produce 60 fps in most situations, you are done.

If your system has trouble producing 60 fps, try setting max framerate to 30 as a test.

That should be easy to try and does not require jumping through hoops..

Thanks Bert! I just did exactly that, 60 and a nice improvement.

For 60hz monitor I would run fps locked @30 and 1/2 refresh rate.

I would set the monitor refresh rate to 30Hz and lock the FPS to 30. Up the resolution from 1920x1080 to 2560x1440.

How do I do this?
