About frame rate

[kinkreet]

Hello everyone,

I am using openGL driver with vsync and fullscreen parameter to false and the refresh rate of the display is 60hz. The result is 60fps.

But what if I use the same setup with a 120hz refresh rate, the result would be 120fps?

In that case, how can I do it will always 60fps regardless of the monitor?

Thanks!

Probably not, i have 75hz rate, and have 60 fps.

How does it work?

1. Vsync is handled by the system so it doesn't matter how fast Irrlicht renders the scene, the driver will only update at the refresh rate.
2. If you want 60fps then take the time before starting to render and, if 16.7 ms hasn't elapsed since the last time, call Sleep or usleep for the remaining time.

but lisacvuk has 75hz of refresh rate and has 60fps :/, with vsync and fullscreen disabled.
