==How Timewarp Increases Frame Rate==
Timewarp allows engines to maintain frame rate when they are otherwise unable to do . It does this by filling in dropped frames. They
In a game engine limited to 50 frames per second, a new frame is displayed once every 20 milliseconds. To increase the game's frame rate to 60, you need to display a new frame once every 16.7 milliseconds. To increase the fps through timewarp, the last completely rendered frame, not the one that is currently rendering, is updated with the latest data about the position of your head. The modified frame is displayed before your eyes.<ref name="YT1">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WvtEXMlQQtI</ref> Theoretically, this method could increase frame rate from 1 to 60. Realistically, timewarp only works in very short distances and time intervals. Long distances or time intervals will make the image appear unrealistic or out of place.
