Macos Tahoe 26.0 FPS cap on games

Found a solution. Set your mac's battery to automatic or high. This will fix the issue until Apple can update the software to use as much as needed for the task, not less.

I'm using a M1 Max MacBook Pro, so I don't know if this will work for you, or if the settings are available.

You should see a screen as such. If you're not on a MacBook Pro; we will need to find another solution. It has something to do with battery settings in the fact that Tahoe gives applications/games less performance then they physically need. In response to leroydouglas, try taking the Mac off Low Power Mode. We need a command that can unrestricted the power usage. Again, this is all speculation from my end.

For some reason, everything runs completely normally except games. My FPS cap on Roblox, Geometry Dash, and others was previously 60FPS but now it only runs at 30FPS. That's a significant difference and, although it isn't unplayable, it's definitely incredibly annoying. Is there any solution to this? Is anyone else having this problem? Thank you guys.

I would search any of those related forums for similar issues and known resolves.

What does that mean exactly histrueandfalse22 — I see no "automatic or high" setting for battery???

It sounds like this problem is getting worse! Other people were reporting that these games were running at 300 FPS and Tahoe was limiting them to only 120 FPS. But that was last week! How slow are they going to run next week?

Same thing here. Just updated and Roblox runs horribly.
