Character sliding when standing still

[Fuechslein]

Since quite a while I noticed that my character keeps moving when standing still. Sometimes its just a short moment and sometimes its quite long. During this "sliding" I have moving accuracy which is really bad when playing guns with bad movement accuracy like lmgs.

 

Any ideas how to fix?

This is something that only happens when you hit 145 fps. You could limit your fps to something a little less to avoid getting it

Where is the ingame option for that? : )

as far as i know limiting fps is only achievable through config editing (which is not allowed and a bannable offense - sadly, to a degree - especially cause of stuff like this) -

except enabling vsync and/or smooth framerate

 

but

yikes what an edgelord skin, really

You could edit the config files (which is allowed, to that level) to set the smooth frame rate to 135 for example.

You could also use something like Rivatuner to limit the fps.

Which file would I need to edit? And I would have to repeat after every update, right?

In

APB Reloaded\Engine\Config\BaseEngine.ini

find the line that says "MaxSmoothedFrameRate=62" and adjust that number to something like 140. 

 

 It could be that you'll need to re-apply this after a patch, but it's only a very small change. Just make sure that you enable smooth framerate ingame.

Still happens, even when setting smooth down to to 135 It does limit my fps but I still get the sliding.

Perhaps it's still too high of a value (though it should be a lot less common). You could try just limiting it to the previous value (120), that should be fine.

I wasn't getting any sliding at 135, but it seems experiences can be different depending on the system.
