Issues fixed

Run the game at screen refresh rate

The game may default your monitor's refresh rate to 60 Hz or 100 Hz. This will result in reduced smoothness on high refresh rate monitors even if the internal GPU render shows a high FPS.

Set screen refresh rate^{[citation needed]}
Install Special K by following the Special K Unofficial Guide. Start the game once and close it to allow the configuration file of Special K to be created. Open `<path-to-game>\d3d9.ini` or `%USERPROFILE%\Documents\My Mods\SpecialK\Profiles\Shellshock 2.exe\SpecialK.ini` depending on the installation method you used. Change `RefreshRate=-1` to `RefreshRate=0` under `[Render.FrameRate]`.
