Ultra-widescreen

60 FPS
Cutscenes are internally and externally capped at 29 FPS. The external cap can be removed with Cheat Engine while the internal one requires a hex edit. Gameplay is internally capped at 59 FPS and will stutter at higher rates due to duplicating previous frames, especially if v-synced to a 60 Hz panel. See 120+ FPS notes. Fullscreen is locked to 60Hz and cannot be overwritten with GPU control panel. Use either windowed or borderless mode.
120+ FPS
The internal 59 FPS cap can be removed by hex editing a modified executable. Replace all instances of 89 88 88 3C with 2F 8E E3 3B (144 FPS) or 3F 0B 36 3B (360 FPS) (preferably with slightly higher values like 150 FPS or 365 FPS if v-syncing is desired, otherwise use external 142 and 355 FPS external caps to prevent stuttering). This will cause physics issues that progressively get worse, the higher the cap is set; however these are usually concerned with automated sequences; 144 FPS for example, will break "Red Gate Bridge", "Guardian Rock" and "Metropolitan Highway" while 360 FPS adds "Lost Valley", "Egg Gate", "Vs. Infinite 1st", "Casino Forest" and "Network Terminal" to the list. Some elements such as QTES and character dialogue animation are still locked at 60 (externally and internally respectively).
