Roblox has a 60 fps limit. When running the game on PC, many will find these values insufficient. The Roblox FPS Unlocker mod will help change this limitation.
In this guide, “Championship” tells about this modification and helps with its installation.
What is Roblox FPS Unlocker for?
Roblox FPS Unlocker is an additional utility that removes the frame rate limit of 60 FPS and provides better results depending on the power of the computer. This modification will help to achieve a smoother gameplay, which is often required in projects with dynamic gameplay.
Please note that the Roblox FPS Unlocker tool does not improve Roblox performance , so it is unable to increase the frame rate on weak systems. This mod only removes the limitation and does not affect the operation of the hardware in any way.
How to Install Roblox FPS Unlocker for Roblox
To unlock FPS, players will have to follow a few simple steps that will lead to the desired result. Below are all the steps to install Roblox FPS Unlocker:
- We go to GitHub and get to the Roblox FPS Unlocker page with the current version “5.0” from Axstin.
- Scroll down the page a bit and click on the file “rbxfpsunlocker-x64-hotfix1.zip” to download it. Some browsers may complain about the archive, so use another download application when an error occurs.
- After downloading, open the archive and unpack the only file “rbxfpsunlocker.exe”. We recommend transferring it to the desktop and placing it next to the game icon, since after each computer restart you need to manually launch Roblox FPS Unlocker.
- Before using Roblox, open the file “rbxfpsunlocker.exe”. After a short check for updates, the console that appears will close, and the modification will be displayed in the tray in the lower right corner of the screen (notification area).
- Left-click on the arrow “Show hidden icons” and find the red Roblox FPS Unlocker icon.
- Use the right mouse button to display all menus and check the boxes for “Unblock Roblox Player” before launching the game and “Unblock Roblox Studio” before opening the game engine to create projects. For regular users who do not build their own games, we recommend leaving all settings unchanged.
Please note that if there are problems with the antivirus, the user must add Roblox FPS Unlocker to the list of allowed processes.

To do this, open the “settings” file with any notepad and add your value in the “FPSCapValues” section, for example, you can add “100.000000” separated by commas without quotes between “75.000000” and “120.000000” to be able to limit the frame rate to 100 FPS.
