Would Fishstrap increase my FPS/reduce my ping?

Fishstrap wouldn’t increase your FPS nor would it reduce your latency to Roblox servers. Consider upgrading your PC for more performance and/or upgrading your network plan or moving closer to Roblox servers for less latency.

My FastFlags don't work anymore!

Roblox has implemented an allowlist of FastFlags for the client (the one you use to play games). This means you can’t use FastFlags that were not approved by Roblox. See the allowlist in this Devforum post.
