Some people have said they needed to download an additional 200MB or so, though I'm rather certain I didn't have to download any additional data, and it's still uncertain as to whether or not there is supposed to be a texture pack.

They're both dynamic. Ultra uses DX11 with edge detect method whereas high doesn't.
I think I prefer shadows on high too.

So I can set it =90? Is that in the .ini?
I can't stand that shit when it's over 120 and you see the player viewmodels arms all outstretched, looks ugly
Keep in mind 90 is different depending on whether it is vertical or horizontal FOV.
Fuck.

Is there any way to turn vsync on but lock the framerate to 60? Turning on vsync currently lock the framerate to 30.

There is a HUD. I can't disable it. UE3 commands don't work when binded like in the first 2 games. I won't hack in no-clip until I figure out the HUD situation anways. So I'll just be playing the game for now
150 looks good? lol wut?

Does that lock framerate option just have on and off or does it let you select 30 and 60?

Just On/Off. Which is too bad because tearing is quite noticeable in game.
anyone?

Hogwash! With a mouse I can aim around with the same speed that I turn my neck in real life which is more immersive. Looking around with a controller makes me feel like I'm an old man with whiplash

or that d3overrider thingy maybe?
The opening menu screen (with new game, options, etc). If you did it right a message will come up saying 1999 mode is unlocked.
I used a pad because I already had one plugged in at the time
Control panel Adaptive VSync is probably a better bet.
try enabling on your video card options, maybe this works the same as dead space 2&3? in those game when you turned vsync on in the games menu it would lock the frame to 30 but when using the nvidia control panel option it would lock the frame to 60

everywhere you turn is screenshot paradise lol. game looks much better in motion I think though, screens don't really do it justice. Also still don't know if I like alternative of normal DOF.

Where do you even see DoF?
I am dumb and forgot I had a 360 pad plugged in, and was trying it on my keyboard. Thanks!

I will be playing with a 360 controller as well. Sure you lose accuracy, but I love having all the buttons easy to reach.

You have SLI 580's right? I would have thought you might have updated them since 2011 lol

Can you save anywhere like the original Bioshock? Or is it checkpoints only?
I am still not done with Mass Effect 3 and the old ass drivers are the only ones that will allow me to use SGSSAA with ME3 and that game needs it.
I just can't seem to get around to finishing it and it is holding me back.

I tried it and it didn't work. I didn't want to apply any settings just yet, as the art direction is so beautiful... but mashing the screenshot key didn't even work.
Fuuuckk. I hated this shit in dead space. definitely a deal breaker for me.
quite stupid to be forced to choose between tearfest and 30fps on a high end pc..
I think achievements etc wont work until you go back online. Getting banned is unlikely.

The best solution for the problem. The default poolsizes are incredibly small considering the vast amounts of RAM and VRAM available on the PC for caching. They've left it at the settings that consoles would use with their limited pools of memory.
I reckon you'd get even less stuttering by jacking it up to 512 or even 768 depending on the amount of available RAM/VRAM that you have on your system. Bigger poolsizes = more available working space to buffer data.

why the hell do you have such old drivers?!
Achievements have been working fine for me. Using a VPN is clearly against the Steam TOS, but I've done it many times over a few years and never been banned. Never heard of anyone getting banned for it, either.

Yeah forcing on vsync in the nvidia control panel still lock the game at 30, ditto for inspector.
Tried this, framerate is no longer locked to 30, but still notice a lot of screen tearing.
Is your framerate locked to 30 when you do this, because mine is. I'm on the new drivers btw.

That mouse sensitivity, holy shit its worse than Max Payne 3.
Lowest setting, its takes like 6 inches to do a 360. Next tick up, its like 2 inches.
Achievements have been working just fine for me while offline.
I've been using adaptive.

My achievements are still unlocking properly in offline mode. I'm sure they will sync when I actually play on Online mode.
Wha? That shouldn't be possible... It's VSync, which unlocks when you go below 60 FPS. There should be no tearing.
This is not working for me.
Curious why there are AO bits specifically for Bioshock Infinite when it features an in-game option for HDAO?
