If you need a screenshot, let me know, but it's a pretty straightforward app to use.Īlso, be sure to click the download link about halfway down the page, not the one in the upper right corner, which will be some kind of ad if you don't have an Okay, there are two separate issues here. Unlike CP and Inspector, RTSS does need to be running while you play, so be sure minimize it rather than closing it entirely. Again, use TS3.exe to create a profile for the game, and set the proper fps limit. If that doesn't work, try RivaTuner Statistics Server, which works with any card and in windowed as well as fullscreen mode. Settings for Inspector are in the same post I linked earlier. You can instead try Nvidia Inspector, which is a free download, and use it to explicitly cap fps at your screen's refresh rate. Many of us just use mods for most of the issues and try to avoid the I take it you've still been using the built-in Control Panel? (V-sync and triple buffering are both features of CP.) It's the first tool to try since it comes already installed with your graphics card driver, but it isn't always the most reliable one to use. TS3 has been out of development for over five years now. no, there's no patch forthcoming, now or probably ever.

Using it is pretty straightforward, but let me know if you want a screenshot.Īs for the bugs and glitches. Unlike the other tools, it does need to be running while you play. It often helps with screen tearing on a variety of cards.

You can also try RivaTuner Statistics Server. If windowed mode is better, you can use the Windowed Borderless app, which works very well with TS3. You can also try switching between fullscreen and windowed modes, again with Inspector in the picture since CP won't work. Since you're on patch 1.69, be sure to use TS3.exe, not the one with the W in it, to set up the profiles. Settings for Inspector are in this post, under the second spoiler: ('fps off' makes it go away.) If it's running too high, you can add Nvidia Inspector (free download) to the mix-I'm guessing your Alienware has an Nvidia card?-to see if it helps. The number will appear in the upper right corner of your screen. Check your in-game fps to make sure it is in fact locked to the refresh rate of your screen: Bring up the cheats console (crtl-shift-c) and enter 'fps on' without quotes. You may have v-sync on, but you can try fiddling with the settings, for example switching from 'on' to 'adaptive.' The Control Panel settings don't always work though, and never work in windowed mode.
