Sonic X Shadow Generations Ultrawide

The internal FPS option for Classic Generations doesn't seem to be working for me. I set it to 165 to match my monitor's native refresh rate, but the game is still running at 60FPS.

 

EDIT: Disregard my comment. I was an idiot and completely glossed over your warning that the script doesn't fully work during the first run through GH Act 1. This was my first time booting up the 2024 version of Sonic Generations, so I didn't have a save file to test it with.

EDIT 2: Closed the game after finishing Act 1 and reloaded the save. The HUD is now rendering properly, but the FPS actually does seem to still be capped at 60 in-game despite being set to 165 in the config file.

Hi. 🙂
I think I need to explain this a bit better. I thought the term "internal" was self-explanatory. Sorry for the confusion.
To clarify: The game will always display 60 fps. My option in the ini file changes the internal fps. You can imagine it as using the same principle as internal and external resolution. Increasing the external fps is sadly associated with too many bugs.

No worries, it’s on me for misinterpreting what you meant. Comparing it to internal resolution does make sense, though. I appreciate the clarification!

From a technical perspective, it's still a bit unclear, so I just have to be careful to explain it as simply as possible. Technically, this isn't a true internal FPS, but rather I'm manipulating the time base, which is usually based on 60. Internally, this option can increase the fluidity of the movements per frame, which gives the impression of increased FPS even though the display says otherwise. So it's a small workaround to avoid the bugs.
