If you have a bit of time and patience, you could actually turn on the Vsync function in SCUM on your own using a simple method described in our step-by-step guide below.

Step 1: Open AppData

In order to activate Vsync in SCUM, you need to edit a system file that can be found in the AppData folder. Follow these steps to locate the file:

Open the Start menu In the search field type %appdata% Open the “AppData” folder Go to “/AppData/Local/SCUM/Saved/Config/WindowsNoEditor/”

In the final WindowsNoEditor folder, you should be seeing a number of .ini files.

Step 2: Edit Game Settings

Now you need to edit the game settings file and add a new line to the configuration. Follow these steps to edit the file:

Right-click on the “GameUserSettings. ini” file Open the file with Notepad Search the text for the following line “bUseVSync” Change “bUseVSync=False” to “bUseVSync=True” Save and close the file

Sometimes there is a chance that you will not be able to find the “bUseVSync” in your configuration file. In this case, simply add the “bUseVSync=True” line at the bottom.

In these few simple steps, you’ll be able to activate the Vsync function in SCUM which should display much smoother than before.
