Run the game at screen refresh rate
- The game may automatically set monitor refresh rate to 60 Hz; this can result in reduced smoothness on a high refresh rate monitor even if GPU render shows a high FPS count.
- If Vsync limits refresh rate to 60 fps on a high refresh rate monitor, this is a sign this issue is occurring.

- ↑ 1.0 1.1 When running this game without elevated privileges (Run as administrator option), write operations against a location below
%PROGRAMFILES%,%PROGRAMDATA%, or%WINDIR%might be redirected to%LOCALAPPDATA%\VirtualStoreon Windows Vista and later (more details). - ↑ 2.0 2.1 Notes regarding Steam Play (Linux) data:
- File/folder structure within this directory reflects the path(s) listed for Windows and/or Steam game data.
- Games with Steam Cloud support may also store data in
~/.steam/steam/userdata/<user-id>/220050/. - Use Wine's registry editor to access any Windows registry paths.
- The app ID (220050) may differ in some cases.
- Treat backslashes as forward slashes.
