Playing GTA 3 ( definitive edition remaster )
Stays at 60fps for the most part but now and again drops to like 50fps and then lags slightly.

Really annoying. Any work around for this ? GTA 5 plays smoother than this !

If anything your better to leave it capped at say 50fps as higher frame rates can cause timing issues with the game.

Timing-related issues​


An unlocked or incorrect frame rate cap can result in timing issues.

Related issues​

  • The menu text selections are invisible exceeding 2000 FPS (fixed with SilentPatch).
    • It crashes the game randomly too when loading a save game.
  • Some weapons fire faster; M16 with manual aiming transforms into a machine gun, firing all the bullets in less than a second.
  • Some audio cuts off sooner. The more the FPS, the sooner it cuts.
  • The firetruck can't shoot water, the effects are broken, thus rendering firefighter side mission impassable.
  • When walking down the stairs or downhill player sometimes gets flung and loses health extremely.
  • Moving the camera with Mouse could become impossible on foot.
  • Vehicles traction and friction are non-existent.
  • Vehicles lose momentum much faster, as soon as player let go of the throttle key.
    • Some cars are not able to reverse.
  • After dying the game is likely to freeze on a white screen.
  • Turning sirens on or off is much harder due to shortened timing of pressing the assigned key to do so. Depends on the FPS.
  • Flamethrower's fire particle effects are broken.
  • Pager messages go faster.
  • Replays go faster.
  • Making stunt jumps breaks the game after completing one, the camera is not going back to normal, the in-game clock also freezes in slow motion.
  • Pushing cars on foot becomes very easy.
  • Sometimes vehicles can stand in down-place, freezing and becoming stuck.
