Thank you for your suggestions. I’ll try them out although I’m still very new to the engine. I have just been learning from the example projects so far. By the way, I tried a complete reinstall of Defold but that didn’t help either; every sample game runs too fast to be playable.

I have that problem every time I install a new version because my graphics driver has vsync turned off by default, so I need to turn it on manually for each new dmengine.exe version

That is a likely cause, we don’t have any software throttling of the frames yet and rely completely on the vsync. This needs to be fixed of course.

OK I’ll try vsync. It sounds like that will fix it. Thanks for the help.

Yep that was the problem. I had recently reinstalled my graphics drivers so I had set the wait for vertical retrace setting to on again. Thanks all!

I think I have the same problem. In the example of the tutorial, everything happens very quickly.
windows 7 x64, nvidia 368.39
We haven’t solved the root cause of this yet. Have you tried updating your graphics driver?

I have to update and DEOLD and after all the animation is very fast moving. In the example in the project. I can only have specific animations to reduce the frequency of update options?
yes, sorry)

The comments above suggests that this might be fixed by turning on vsync for your monitor/graphics driver. Have you tried this?
I think no. Maybe I just do not understand the process. It seems to me that all the animation and movement themselves frog 2 times faster than they should be. not as much as in the video above, but not as smooth as it should be
Now I am trying to record a video. laptop became slow down and play has been almost comfortable. if I had a 2-fold decreased FPS. I tried to change it to “game.project name” but nothing changed … in all the examples process of the game is clearly under acceleration 2 times
I believe you have to find a setting for your graphics driver or monitor in your control panel which is related to “vsync”. Have you located such a setting on you computer? Maybe @Johan or @madeyes knows where to find it?
I found this option, but nothing has changed … I tried to file “name game.project” lower FPS from 60 to 30 games and had very fast tb. Then I tried it with 60 fps to 90 fps to increase, but the game still goes a little fast. There are ideas for testing?
What I need to do is going in the nVidia control panel and under “Manage 3D-settings” add a setting for dmengine.exe (I need to redo it each time Defold is updated as the folder for dmengine.exe is new each time) and turn off VSync.
