people with 144hz monitors please look
well by accident yesterday i launched theHunter and i was messing with my monitor and checked the HZ while ingame and it reads as 60HZ!
even though i have used the option in the graphics for 144hz.now every other game i play is 144hz according to my monitor.
can someone else who plays at 144hz go in game dont minimize stay normal ingame as if playing then check your monitor OSD for the HZ it says you playing at and confirm .thanks.
i seen someone else mention this recently about the game and also if you google people playing theHunter primal are unable to play at higher hz resolutions.

Both theHunter and Primal play at 144Hz for me, confirmed with both the ShadowPlay OSD and FRAPS.

NVIDIA Control Panel > Manage 3D settings > Preferred refresh rate > Highest available
It's the only solution to run theHunter (and some other games - even recent ones like HITMAN) at 144 Hz in fullscreen.

I think you are mixing up frame rate and refresh rate. Both Fraps and ShadowPlay display the frame rate. To see the refresh rate, you have to check your monitor OSD.Fletchette wrote:Both theHunter and Primal play at 144Hz for me, confirmed with both the ShadowPlay OSD and FRAPS.

no what i been doing to make sure the refresh rate is working is trying v sync so fraps shows the fps which would be capped to 144 then . my monitor was only showing 60 in the OSD.Cireme wrote:You are mixing up frame rate and refresh rate.

i figured it out now with help from you but its far from ideal.
basically if i select fullscreen in the game options and 144hz.i cant get 144hz in game.
if i untick full screen i can get 144hz.
so i need to find out why that is or is it a game bug ?
the thing is if i play at my res and not fullscreen i need to alt enter to get it full that then send the picture different colours.
is there a different nvidia setting ? talk about messing about
if i join a game full screen go in normal at my res 2560x1440x144hz the hz will be 60hz. if i alt enter i will get 144hz. so why is this ?

Yes it's an old engine bug that will most likely never get fixed, like the squished 16:10 aspect ratio resolutions.ronMctube wrote:so i need to find out why that is or is it a game bug ?
When you press Alt-Enter, the game switches from exclusive fullscreen to windowed borderless fullscreen and starts to use the desktop refresh rate (144 Hz here) instead of his own one (60 Hz).ronMctube wrote:if i join a game full screen go in normal at my res 2560x1440x144hz the hz will be 60hz. if i alt enter i will get 144hz. so why is this ?
You should try to switch back to exclusive fullscreen again (by pressing Alt-Enter one more time) and see if the game sticks with the desktop refresh rate.

Ordinarily you would be correct, but I neglected to mention that I'm also running G-Sync, so FPS = Refresh Rate.Cireme wrote:I think you are mixing up frame rate and refresh rate.
