Any chance of adding vsync in the game options.

This game makes my card very hot tbh.
I have to force vsync on in nivida options.

Not really necessary tbh. The game doesn't suffer from tearing that I've noticed. If your graphics card overheats then that's something you need to sort out, not Hidden Path :P
Forcing VSync in the control panel isn't exactly difficult if you're concerned.
In my mind, Anti-Aliasing is the graphics feature that needs adding, not VSync. Trouble is, it's a lot more difficult to do.

If you have an ATI card, check out an application called "RadeonPro" which is developed (in part) by Ray Adams, the guy who developed ATI Tray Tools. Here's a link:

http://www.radeonpro.info/

It allows you to set up custom profiles for any game you have, and there are a lot of tweaking options, VSync and Triple buffering included (and Vsync for either D3D and OpenGL games).

If you have an Nvidia card, I'm not sure what tool will do the job, but you can ask for help at the Guru3D forums or any other graphics hardware forum site. Here's a link to Guru3D:

WaxPaper if you already read what i put i have vsync force on.

Also i have to force it on to stay at 75fps,otherwise when its not on.my card will get quite hot,i'm assuming it's hitting way above 75 fps when turned off.

Not a biggie as i can force it on,but would be nice to have the option in the menu tbh.

also kakkerlak just read up on this thread.
Yes not the same game but this what happens when fps too high.
