Okay seriously wtf - Page 2

r^3 works fine for me, but velocity is a joke ATM. I'd rather not be forced to play on r^3 next round.

**customstuff** · 02-4-2013, 06:32 PM

I have an Intel i7 and 16GB of RAM and it lags for me sometimes too, so I'm going to guess it isn't your hardware.

**krunkykai22** · 02-4-2013, 06:33 PM

Yeah, I don't think it's my hardware at all :/

I just wish It would get fixed like asap >.> it's costly for an official to have laggy engines.

**yo man im awesome** · 02-4-2013, 06:58 PM

I'm gonna be pretty unhappy if I have to resort to R2, where I can't even change my old settings anymore because the settings were so broken...

R^2 engine ftw

**JohnRedWolf87** · 02-4-2013, 08:37 PM

The lag started for me about 2 days ago, as well.

I usually play using the Velocity engine on the Flash 9 standalone. Try playing FFRAnotherWay on Flash 8. That's fixed it for me.

My Velo started lagging about 3 days ago. I had to resort to using R^2 on FP9. After spending a few days experimenting with settings, i finally got to the point where I'm probably doing 90% of what i was capable in velo, maybe even a little better on the lower end files. Still having issues with really dense patterns since i have to read a new noteskin but hopefully that improves :/.

Try switching to FP 10, I have the same problem on 9. It started lagging for me two days ago too, by the way.

You're not alone my game was running smoothly until 3 days ago too. If I had to get a score right now for the tournament I'd be in serious trouble and that's not cool..

I'm also a bit confused how we have 3000+ people playing FFR right now. We even had 13k users at one point. Is the number of people online accurate and can it impact lag on the game? ..because it feels like it's general lag from server-side this time.

im fairly certain that a high number of users currently playing ffr at any given time will not produce lag on the end of the players, seeing as everything is preloaded prior to playing any song. if anything, it would take longer to preload the song you are trying to play, or login.

**Hakulyte** · 02-4-2013, 11:13 PM

You're most likely right, just wondering why there's lag "now" when the only change seems to be site activity.

my assumption based off of the recent number of users having this issue, is that either velocity made a change to the engine (not likely since he said himself he isnt touching the engine, and is working on r^3) OR the fact that the recent amount of songs added may have something to do with it? this is an issue that velocity might have to look into.

I dunno I'm using the Flash 10 standalone now, and it seems fine.

Though: when I was using Flash 8, it sucked huge balls and I reverted back to SM cause of all the shit I smashed this morning.

**d4u7211** · 02-4-2013, 11:44 PM

all engines in browser work for me, only when running linux (lubuntu), havent tried a standalone but im pretty sure itd be fine too.

win7 lags too much for me even on DOS graphics settings lol

Oh wow

Also the lag problem happens when CPU usage on your computer gets high. Whenever my total CPU usage was below 10% the lag wasn't a problem, 15% had some twitches, 20% and above was unplayable. There's something about the engine during the times of the tournaments where it boosts up CPU usage for some reason

**kmay** · 02-5-2013, 10:06 AM

what worked for me was going into I.E. and clearing my cache. went back to velo engine and lag was gone. also my flash player stopped crashing....
