📋 About This Mod

FPS Limiter Description: FPS Limiter is a utility which enables you to cap your Frames Per Second to any set number you choose. Installation: Simply extract antilag.cfg and d3d9.ddl to your skyrim folder: C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Steam\\steamapps\\common\\skyrim\\ Please force v-sync on in your GPU control panel if you don\'t want screen tearing. Thank you... Amd cards may not be able to force v-sync the same way as Nvidia cards can. Optimus cards are not supported. RenderAheadLimit: Limit how many frames ahead are rendered to reduce input lag.(default is 0) FPSlimit: Limit framerate for smoother gameplay and reduced cpu/gpu use. 0 to disable.(default is 30) You can make this file work in conjunction with ENBSeries.ini: 1. Rename the FPS Limiter\'s D3D9.dll to D3D9FL.dll, now drop it into your Skyrim folder. 2. Now open up ENBSeries.ini and edit \"ProxyLibrary=PathToDLL\" edit it so it leads straight to \"D3D9FL.dll\", also remember to have \"EnableProxyLibrary=xx\" & \"InitProxyFunctions=xx\" set to \"true\", or it won\'t load the additional DLL. Example: EnableProxyLibrary=true InitProxyFunctions=true ProxyLibrary=\"C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Steam\\steamapps\\common\\skyrim\\D3D9FL.dll\" Thanks to Kegetys (Original creator) & Ox30 (F:NV Uploader)
