| 120+ FPS | The game seems to have its game speed tied to the frame rate in most levels, which makes it appear as if the game is running faster but not smoother. It’s possible to exceed 60 FPS by enabling “Threaded Optimization” through the Nvidia drivers. However, there are exceptions like “Volcano Rave” or certain in-game animations which visually display at more than 120 FPS. On some systems, “Volcano Rave” may appear to be running faster instead of displaying at more than 120 FPS. There’s also an issue with the physics in “Mort’s Adventure”, during the pinball section. This is because the plunger doesn’t provide enough force to launch Mort onto the pinball table. [1] | ||
