Hello, I have a question for moderators:
Have you considered investigating the possibility of allowing the New Vegas Tick Fix as a legal mod for speedruns? It's a state of the art, open-sourced, performance mod (recommended and included in the famous Viva New Vegas mod suite) that also decouples the game's physics from the game's renderer.
I have hope that this mod would simplify the setup of New Vegas for new runners, remove the need for using 3rd-party software to limit the game's framerate (while keeping input lag low), and improve the play experience for runners who own high refresh rate monitors.
Best regards and thank you for any answers
Hi,
It has been considered many times in the past due to its many improvements. However, it does fundamentally change the run (reload dash distances are different). Many games use a 3rd party tool to limit fps, so we don't see a problem doing the same.
Additionally from our testing 2 years ago, we found that the game crashes more during infinite dash with NVTF than without.
