The executable to use is TS3.exe for Patch 1.69/Origin, but TS3w.exe (with the "w") for 1.67/Steam or disc without Origin. Otherwise the settings shown are fine, but if you switch on Show own statistics, then RTSS will display the actual frame rate for you in one of the corners of your screen while the game is running. You can adjust the size, color, and which corner using the zoom, palette, etc. settings around that. Or you could use TS3's own fps on cheat code, the same value gets displayed either way and this is the one we do not want rising above 60.
The third party tools do not do vertical sync, the Radeon Pro or other built-in tools still do that. RTSS forces the frame rate capping while still honoring the card's other built-in settings. So think of it as a "helper" for Radeon Pro, not a replacement for it.
If you still have screen tears, then you might check full screen vs windowed mode and also might need to fiddle with the frame rate limit a bit (try 61 or 59, etc.).
Okay so I have been messing around with this a bit more and I am still experiencing screen tearing. I have tried to set the FPS limit slightly above/below 60 and nothing makes a difference (yes, I have the program running in the background) and I know that it's working because my fps aren't going any higher than what I have it set to, so at least that's working. I am under the impression that I am supposed to use RTSS and Radeon Pro in conjunction with one another, with RP forcing vsync and RTSS holding the frames, however it seems that RTSS is the only one pulling their weight. Any more suggestions or tricks I could try? Maybe I am missing a setting that needs to be changed. I've never experienced screen tearing in any of my MBP's before, so this is a new and unwelcome thing...Thanks again :disappointed:
