I'm glad this has finally been answered for me. Too many people try to say turn vsync off.
Maybe people are enabling triple buffering and that's why they feel like more input lag has been introduced? I can't read that guide right now so sorry if this was already covered.
Doesn't matter, but I personally prefer doing it in-game since it's easier to adjust on a game by game basis.
Most will tell you to use driver vsync as they've encountered certain games vsync in the past not working right.
Yes, a good example:

Thanks guys, I just watched a video from Battlenonsense and he says that Nvidia told him that sometimes in game VSYNC might enable other engine settings and since it's not a standard I guess I might as well just enable it on NVCP since it might lead to bad framepacing, etc.
Wow. They going to reset visual settings for this type of update every time?
There were 2 images around here somewhere that had the optimized settings for this game by a certain website/YT channel. Anyone knows which one this was? I was using this for my settings after the latest patch and since it has been reset again I could use this again.
I call complete BS on this. Vsync on with Gysnc doesn't add any additional input lag when you are in Gsync range. Also, you should have Vsync on with Gsync because some game engines prefer that to run optimally.

weird, mine did. Did you by chance just use one of the preset settings and not change anything manually?
Actually they did, just not to the lowest settings but actually maxed out at a lot of settings. Weird.
Just screenshot your settings once you're happy with them and if they ever reset check the screenshot and replicate the settings
I basically just used the recommended settings that were posted couple pages back. I'll find them when I get home. But man is this frustrating.
I hate how extremely fast sunsets, sunrises and other visually striking moments of the day go by, it really takes me out of the experience, and I just realized the "Longer Days" mod I've been desperately waiting for to fix that has been out for a week.. smh. 🤦🏻♂️
Is this stuff safe to use?
edit-
Crashes a few seconds in. The scripthook being used apparently sucks and people on nexus are waiting for a better one to use with this.

Thanks. I would be interested in a thread about vsync in general, though. Of course there are several guides but I would prefer a discussion as it seems to be a controversial topic with all its details (vsync yes or no? Ingame or control panel? Double/triple buffering? Frame limit ingame or RTSS? How much input lag?)
Thank you for this I've been trying to figure out how to setup g-sync optimally since I got my monitor.
I had to manually set it to Ultra again, on High I was still noticing fade-in on the mud lines on the ground in Valentine's main street.
Me: There was something wrong with Gsync and Vsync in Vulkan on the launch version of the game. It is noticeably better now and Gsync works correctly.
You: Bullshit! Vsync and Gsync are meant to be used together. I've read an article.
I never said anything about people always having to deactivate Vsync for Gsync. Just that it wasn't working with this game before the first, mayor patch hit. And that it feels way better now.
What's wrong with people on this forum recently. Seriously.
Also, just because you are making a big deal out of it: I never encountered a single situation where vsync made my gsync experience better. Not even in other Vulkan Games like Doom or Rage 2. Gsync works and is great and vsync can be used, especially when you are likely to reach your refresh rate limit. But it is by far not mandatory or helps in getting a better experience.
Have a nice evening. I don't see a point in talking to you again.
What a mess!
I see the cores/weight was adressed does that mean that time of day is working as intended? Could really use a working mod in that case..
On this regard you need to check this page (more comprehensive)!
've fun!
This should have been the first thing Rockstar tweaked but of course they didn't. Their habit of making zero tweaks and quality of life improvements to their SP games is horrible. How do you make a game with a focus on ultra realism and then make the entire day like 1 hour long and weather conditions last for 30 seconds?
No problem. I am not a native speaker so this may be on me ;).
It was way too fast on console too, though I wouldn't rule out it being even faster on PC at higher frame rates.
Here's something at least. From the latest patch notes:
It looks like a solid patch. However the time of day seems too fast still. Very distracting during dusk and dawn especially.
And have the moon transit backwards across the sky with no arc either. Maybe a mod can fix it?
Thank you I was looking for this on my phone to reset everything. I need to print this out and put it on my wall for all of these resets...
