Toggling v-sync in game requires a game restart

Anyone know how to force the update without having to restart the game?

IIRC if you change the game resolution or switch from fullscreen->windowed or windowed->fullscreen it will recreate the device which is enough for the vsync update to kick in
it would require some trickery to switch to some intermediate resolution and then back to the desired one, or switch from fullscreen->windowed->fullscreen
in my game I just marked the option as * requires restart] - I couldn’t be bothered to waste time and/or risk potential unexpected behavior

In my case usually works switching to windowed to full screen, but in a cooked game it didn’t work. I have to try again.

How do you toggle vsync (with or without restart)?
