UWP VSYNC Fix Coming in May: Overlay & Modding to Be Eventually Allowed

[LoadsaMoney]

We will be enabling the ability to disable VSYNC and adding support for GSYNC/FreeSync in May. DirectX 12 added support for new mGPU scenarios which work today for both Windows32 and UWP games. We’re committed to ensure that we meet or exceed the performance expectations of full screen games as well as adding additional requested features, including support for overlays, modding and more.

I guess it pays off to voice our concerns.. Still not a fan of the UWP.

Great, when they fix all the issues I'll consider it.

 

[Razor Time]

Nice

 

[Gregster]

They fix that and I will buy.

Nice to see that they are listening to the feedback.

Once the V-Sync/G-Sync issue as well as Fullscreen and overlays has been sorted then and only then will I buy Gears of War and Quantum Break.

 

[Orangey]

Allowed.

You already can it's in Windows setting storage.

"Overlay and modding to be eventually allowed"

Gee, how generous of them. Presumably only if they, y'know, feel like we deserve it.

I've never played GOW and really want to but I'm not going to support the WS until they actually do it, not just say they're doing it.

I assume he means on an individual basis, since not everyone wants games installed in the same place for various reasons.

 

[Dirk Diggler]

Am I right in saying this may encourage better support for SLI in DX12, or is that still wishful thinking given that the Devs will still have all the work to do to make it happen?

 

[Aretak]

Microsoft talking a big game as per usual. Maybe one day, some day, one of their actual products will be as good as the PR campaign for it.
