Screen tearing fix / enable VSync (WIN 10)
By IronKnightAquila
Surprised this is not in guides. Posting this for higher visibility of the fix.
I had to search and read through many nonsense posts via google to find a proper fix on Windows 10 for the awful screen tearing.

Make a backup of settings before you try this if you feel the need to do so.

1: Find the settings folder: C:\Users\"user name"\Documents\Sniper - Ghost Warrior\out\Settings
2: Open Notepad or Word pad and go to File ->Open and select video.scr file from above directory. (You must use the drop down lower right and select "all file types" not just .txt)
3: Write a line at the bottom of the document: VSync()
4: Close and save.

So it looks something like this (copy/paste example).


!Resolution(i,i)
!WindowOffset(i,i)
!Monitor(i) // -1 primary monitor
!BPP(i)
!FSAA(i) // Full Screen AntiAliasing, 0 - none, higher is better
!TexBPP(i)
!TextureQuality(s) // VeryLow, Low, High
!Filtering(s) // Bilinear, Trilinear, Anisotropic, AnisotropicTrilinear
!GammaFloat(f)
!MaxRefresh(i)
!Shadows(s) // Low, High
!ShadowMapSize(i)
!Lightmaps()
!Fullscreen()
!VSync() // enable vertical sync
!MaterialQuality(i) // lower is better
!WaterQuality(i) // lower is better
!GrassQuality(i) // lower is better
!FXQuality(i) // higher is better
!FXFadeLevel(i) // 0-4 (lower is better)
!EnvQuality(s) // FullDynamic, RareDynamic, Static
!ShaderPath(i) // 0 - 1.1, 1 - 1.4, 2 - 2.0, 3 - 3.0, 4 - x360, 5 - 4.0, 6 - ps3
!PostProcess(s) // Simple, Normal
!DisplayDeviceType(i,f,f,f,f) //device type (LCD TV etc.): 0 - default
!Curves(s) // curves texure

If you have an amd card just use enhanced sync on your driver and it works fine
