Love this port. I have a problem where turning on vsync creates a jittery framerate that seems to skip several frames at a time. I've tried all video settings and framerate caps and they all seem to exhibit the same problem.

And I can't seem to force a smooth framerate using external limiters or NVIDIA control panel settings, either. No vsync and it's fine but the screen tearing can be pretty bad.

i would recommend using the ingame framerate limiter and then use borderless program to get it to run in proper windowed fullscreen,

Runs like a dream when i do this.

Devon, what is your screen refresh rate and what limit did you set?

[Drac Snackem]

For some reason I get screen tearing with or without borderless windowed or fullscreen. The frame limiter only causes tears to happen at different frequencies.

Don't know how helpful it is, but most of my problems seemed to be alleviated by running the game borderless AND running it at a sub-desktop resolution. So running it in 1600x900, where my desktop is visible beneath the game window, seems to fix 90% of the stutters I was experiencing.

I also set up as second monitor the day before trying this, but I don't know what effect that might have if any.

60hz screen.

And i have fps limit set to off.

Also i dont use bloodgdx borderless option as it does not work for me. i have to use the borderless gaming program instead.

Try asking Zaxx; I hear he is a big fan of BloodGDX and an expert on V-SYNC.

Can you try this version?

Borderless mode should looks like on the screenshot. Are you have other?

Whoa! I don't know what you did but that version fixed these open area lags/ROR freezes. ;p

Frametime judder still happening in Ion Maiden btw...

Anyway don't use vsync for BloodGDX since it's pretty broken. Borderless fullscreen might work but get ready for additional input lag. Best solution from my experience (if your PC can handle it but it should since Blood is old as balls): use native fullscreen mode and lock your fps to a very high value (something like 240-300), that way you won't see screen tearing and the game will run smooth.

Sorry I didn't get back to you sooner, that link is dead but I assume its the newest update. I tried it and I still have the same issues, where fullscreen and borderless at 1080p, with vsync on, there's an odd jutter that seems to be tied to turning or rounding corners, but I can't say that for certain. Without v-sync, even on borderless at 1080p, theres tearing that turns into a funhouse warping at uncapped framerates (2000-3000fps uncapped).

It's only when I run it windowed at lower than 1080p that I don't get any tearing. I figure my configuration must be weird.

I have the exact same issue w/ v-sync as you Drac. It almost seems like it's a texture caching/streaming problem when v-sync is enabled. Just like you said, turning corners & entering new areas causes the game to stutter, but once everything loads in it becomes smooth again...until you round the next corner. For some reason this problem doesn't exist when v-sync is turned off.
