I started up the game today and it ran through the opening cinematic at extreme speeds. The menu animations are also playing super fast and the game is unplayable.
I have restarted my computer and verified SMBs files to no avail.
Anyone know whats happening and how to fix it?
Edit: catalyst control center was forcing a refresh rate of 75 so i set it to 60 and the game went to normal.

Do you have Vsync enabled?

I'm not sure is it a graphic card thing or is it in SMBs options?

I'm Searching in catalyst control center and I can't find Vsync (probably me being a blind idiot). But I did recently update it so i'm not sure if that would have affected anything

We actually did have a topic about a similar problem a few weeks ago, through a little tinkering, he managed to get it to run at a normal speed once he put the game into windowed mode. He didn't get results after he lowered the refresh rate to 60 hz, so perhaps you should try what he did.

EDIT: Well that was fast, you ninja'd me. What did you do, for future reference for others who may have the same issue?

Playing the game windowed fixes VSync related problems, so there's no need to fiddle with your card to fix this. Unless you can't stand having it off when you play other games.
