Skyrim Vsync Off bugs

[KeeperFiM]

Does skyrim still flip the freak out if you disable vsync? Like get physics bugs and day/night timescale bugs?

Don't quote me on this, but as I understand it, Skyrim's physics get wonky out if you're regularly going over 60 frames a second. The only thing I've experienced in my brief experimentation is my character occasionally using the swimming animation while running.

That's the thing. I've seen people post about the physics going crazy with vsync off and I've seen it happen in videos. But other people say they have dozens and dozens of hours played with no problems. It's mind-boggling.

Well, it's just a thought, but maybe those people only average 60 frames or less with the vsync off?

I saw in a thread that some bugs will still occur with vsync off and less than 60 FPS, such as the day/night timescale bug

Jack's butt has been confirmed for causing more bugs than Vsync off
Hah

But yea even if you have to turn Vsync off, you should use an SKSE plugin to limit your frames in any case.

Goddammit

 

Anyway some of the vsync off bugs can't be fixed by limiting framerate or forcing vsync externally

grr
