**Intro**
In this thread I'll explain how you can fix framerate issues in Super Meat Boy in order to make cycle based levels such as 7-19x run the intended way by capping the framerate to 60fps.


**RivaTuner**
First things first you'll need a program called RivaTuner. You can download it by clicking [**here**](http://www.guru3d.com/files-get/rtss-rivatuner-statistics-server-download,11.html)

Once installed, go ahead and launch the program (called RivaTuner Statistics Server). You will see a window like this https://i.imgur.com/MmYHsd3.png
Now click that + button (bottom left), browse through your files and find SuperMeatBoy.exe (usually contained in this path *C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Super Meat Boy\*).
After that, you can go ahead and change the *Framerate limit* to 60 on the right side of RivaTuner.
Finally, you can check out how the game runs, that should be it.


**Important Notes**
- RivaTuner has to be running in the background for it to work... so yeah keep it open
- I noticed that I was getting less wallslides and overall better game performance, which is cool
- if you happen to no longer being able to capture Super Meat Boy via OBS then it might be because of RivaTuner--if that's the case, try enabling the *Stealth mode* option in RivaTuner


**Comparison**
Here is a video showing a comparison between my game initially running at 60.3fps vs. using RivaTuner with the 60fps limit https://youtu.be/ku3YjpYADK4


**PC speedrunning lmao**
If for some reason that didn't change anything:
*a:* sorry
*b:* you should consider learning a new speedgame (preferably not a pc game)
*c:* dark ending


**Many Thanks**
Big thanks to vorpal for telling me about RivaTuner, this may already be a known thing but I feel like it deserved its own public post.

Also worth noting that fixing the framerate reduces load times.

Did not know about the load times, that's interesting for sure. Have you tried various res comparisons??

Game stuck on initial loading screen? Here's the fix

How to get started playing this game

A few questions on the 106%

Super Meat Boy on Linux has slow animations, even on 60 FPS.

Remapping duplicate buttons/keys allowed?

My runs that were accepted and were sadly uploaded in 29 FPS
