Slash Command
/maxfps number
Limits the maximum frames per second that a player's client shows, whether the game is in focus or not.
- 0 = Default (60 FPS)
- ### = Set desired (1-999)
- Commonly used by players when Multi Boxing to increase performance.
TIP: By default, the maximum FPS on City of Heroes is set to 60 FPS. If you'd like higher FPS, and your video card, display, and system can handle it, use /maxfps to raise the maximum FPS allowed. The biggest improvement in visual perception on displays is between 30-80 Hz, any higher and you start dealing with diminishing returns. A higher frame rate can help with smoothing out the game in minimally laggy areas, but will have no effect on hard (major) lag. You'll have to use /maxfps every time you login unless you use it as a command line argument or add it to the Extra Launch Parameters as -maxfpsin the Homecoming Launcher.
Example
