Lowering 'limit framerate' minimum cap?

I've noticed the 'limit framerate' has a minimum cap of 10. I understand that the cap has been put in place to avoid all sorts of problems when barely any frames are generated. However, any possibility to lower that cap to 5?


Would be much appreciated.

Re: Lowering 'limit framerate' minimum cap?

I don't recommend this, however if you *really* want to do it and deal with the issues it brings, give this a shot:

Open up InnerSpace\Scripts\ISBoxerToolkit.GeneralSettings.XML in notepad / text editor

Find every occurrence of: (where X is some number)

Code:
<Setting Name="Background Max FPS">X</Setting>


Edit X to be 5 in every occurrence:

Code:
<Setting Name="Background Max FPS">5</Setting>


Save your changes.
Launch your character set.


Issues with doing this:
* Since the lowest possible setting in ISBoxer is 10, ever time you Export to Innerspace via ISBoxer you will have to do this change again.
* I tried this on 3 WoW windows sitting at the login screens. Main (foreground) @ 40fps, Slaves (background) set to 5 fps. The slaves were running 7-10fps+ You many not actually get 5 FPS
* This is generally a bad idea. Don't do this.


Update: I just tested this out on 4 RotMG clients and the slaves seemed to hold at 5 FPS. The only problem is 2 of the 4 windows took a bit to load, they stayed black longer than the other 2 windows. Once they were in the game I was able to move around without much issue. I did end up losing 1 slave and had to go back for him. Your mileage may vary, but I still don't think this is a viable method.

ISBoxer does it's thing on every frame update, so by lowering the frame rate to 5 you may lose key presses if you are typing fast.
