2000+ fps

[Arthandas]

So the game's running at 2000+ fps which makes my graphic card slowly overheat. I tried the following with no luck:
- forcing vsync in graphic card's control panel
- forcing vsync via D3DOverrider (doesn't work with FT)
- fps limiter (apparently doesn't work on Win 7)
- underclocking graphic card (still generates A LOT of frames)

I cannot play FT due to this problem, any ideas? Could engine be modded to allow vsync?

The engin cannot be modified to support vsync.

Try Dxtory.

Google Dxtory. DL, install, Run the program, click the advanced tab (green circuit board) and check "limit video FPS" and input a desired FPS. Run FOT, alt-tab out. If FOT is displayed in the "profile" box at the top of the Dxtory window, it has been recognized by Dxtory and should work. Don't close Dxtory, just leave it on in the backround or minimized.

Let us know if it works. I love Dxtory and never miss a chance to recommend it. It is a program that should be in every PC gamers arsenal for the FPS limiter alone, that actually works in 90% of games. I use it on all new gen titles because listening to my GPU fans pisses me off. Looking at the Dxtory site, it supports DX7-11, even DirectDraw, and all the OSs. I would be suprised if this didn't solve your problem.

Sadly FOT isn't recognizable by Dxtory, it doesn't show up in the profile tab
