Hi Can anyone tell me how to disable VSync in OpenGL? Thanks

I have the Detonator 41.something (I think) drivers for my GF2 and in the advanced video settings I can turn it on and off for opengl.

Desktop -> rightclick -> properties -> settings -> advanced -> geforce tab -> OpenGL settings

I don''t know you can disable it in code though.

Yeah, I think it''s a user feature. I don''t think you can disable it in code for you app.

I don''t have a signature

Of course you can disable VSYNC in code. I believe you have to query the OpenGL driver for GL_EXTENSIONS and then look to see if it supports WGL_EXT_swap_control. If it does you load the wglSwapIntervalEXT and wglGetSwapIntervalEXT extension functions.

I believe that is how you do it.

Just did a search and nVidia states that you won''t find the functions listed in the GL_EXTENSIONS string. You can still query the ICD for wglSwapIntervalEXT and wglGetSwapIntervalEXT:

I almost forgot: lookup wglGetProcAddress(), you''ll need to use that to grab the two other functions.
