Yea I would like more than 60.

I followed the method here: http://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Command_line_arguments

Did they make it so it doesn’t work anymore?

Why do you want to cap FPS and if you want to cap fps, why do you want more than 60?

Because having fps jump from 180 and then to 30 one minute to the next can be stressful on the system. I would like more than 60 because 60 doesn’t always feel that smooth unlike say 80 or 90.

So that method doesn’t work anymore?

Your monitor probably only runs at 60hz, so you would not notice more, unless you are not running vsync, in which case the feeling of less “smooth” is probably coming from screen tearing. Also, going from any fps to another has no effect on how a system is stressed, so if you think this is somehow going to make your hardware last longer, it’s not.

as Tink² said, just enable vsync.

If it’ll be stuck at 60 (/120) then, there’s no reason to limit the processing at 80/ 90.
