Unturned automatically limits itself to 30 FPS when watching YT videos with Picture-In-Picture

If playing Unturned in Borderless mode and having a Youtube video play with Picture-In-Picture from the web browser, Unturned limits itself to 30 FPS even when V-Sync and Framerate Limits are disabled.
To clarify, I’m actively playing Unturned while having a Youtube video layered over the game window using the web browser’s Picture-in-Picture feature

Update: Tried Picture-in-Picture video with Opera GX and the frames don’t drop as drastically as before; possibly this only happens with Microsoft Edge browser

There is probably a framerate limit for when you are tabbed out. I’m not sure if there is a setting for that or not. I think Nelson implemented something like this more recently.

There is. Just go to the display menu and you can disable it or set it to a different number

I’ve marked @CPL’s post as the solution. Please feel free to unmark if you’re still having any issues. :slight_smile:

Pic 1: Showing that V-sync and Limit framerate options are off
Pic 2: Using Picture-in-Picture with Microsoft Edge limits frames to 30
Pic 3: Using Picture-in-Picture with Opera GX doesn’t apply a limit



CPL’s suggestion is to disable the Limit Framerate While Alt-Tabbing setting. This is different from V-Sync and Limit Framerate.

Which UI mode are you using? Are you using IMGUI?

The default one. Also my monitor displays up to 165 Hz
