Official Lag Poll (1438k vs 848k) - Page 2

Ok, i am going to start uploading that video. I am doubtful that the quality would be clear enough to notice tiny little skips on the screen while the table is shaking a little. So i took a video of ffr in a browser and then of the 800kb ffr.exe version.

I'm not looking for some sort of 'trick', I'm looking for something more challenging. Something that will force me to improve quickly if I need to be good at it. I would hope something like that would improve my reading and timing abilities to where when I return to FFR my skills would be far greater than they are now.

Has anyone ever tried O2Jam? I'm thinking of finding it to give it a shot. Some of those YouTube videos look crazy hard. Death Piano doesn't have **** on some those files.

Good luck finding a working o2jam, site closed down some time ago.

Anyway, also try playing on high xmods. If you're on 1.25, try to get used to 1.5, it really make a difference, believe me.

Also play Stepmania.

O2Mania is the offline version, if I remember correctly. Get that. I doubt it will help at all, but it is fun. xD

we working on a solution... we're aware of the multiple threads and plenty of users having issues. we apologize that this has happened, but if we have security issues with the game, they need to be addressed. and we're trying to find a solution that both addresses it and prevents lag.

**-zeroSKILL-** · 08-5-2008, 03:30 AM

I play on 2x speed and can probably AAA up to Difficult by now. AAA'ed many Tricky's. Decent PA on Challenging.

Gonna look into O2Mania, thanks Commander.

Also, I hate StepMania. Last time I tried it (some years ago) I could never find decent songs. All the ones on the site sucked, and I could never figure out how to use songs downloaded from here :/.

Bad memories = bad experience.

**foilman8805** · 08-5-2008, 03:38 AM

Definitely number 4 for me, and when you have the kind of PA I have, the small lag spikes are detrimental to AAAs and overall progress.

**sarahxjane** · 08-5-2008, 03:43 AM

I hate to ask but, do you mean AAA's before or after it began to lag?

Forgive me for sounding like a complete moron.

It makes more sense after, but whatever.

Sh4d0wD3v1L · 08-5-2008, 03:46 AM

Small lag spikes, ruins my FC

I had this happen 3 times yesterday.

Yeah, those first few options are kind of 'huh?'. I do believe he means after the version update.

Commandersa1 · 08-5-2008, 04:05 AM

Can someone load up FFR? It is back to the 848 version for me. Anyone else seeing this?

Izzy · 08-5-2008, 04:06 AM

Oh, i should quickly go AAA all those new songs i couldnt do before really quick.

**Tasselfoot** · 08-5-2008, 04:11 AM

clear your cache and reload FFR... it should be back to an 800k version. we're doing what we can... should hopefully be lag free again.

Izzy · 08-5-2008, 04:17 AM

It is, i have already AAAed 3 files i was unable to before.

**Tasselfoot** · 08-5-2008, 04:20 AM

like Here We Go? or more like Digital Atmosphere?

**foilman8805** · 08-5-2008, 04:20 AM

Dude...

Lag free is the way to ****ing be. Thanks for fixing that, Tass.

Commandersa1 · 08-5-2008, 04:21 AM

Does anyone find Intense Colors (FFR Edit) a little off-sync?

Edit: Played it again, and it seems better. Nevermind. -__-

**Tasselfoot** · 08-5-2008, 04:26 AM

Commander: i've been working on fixing the sync on that for the past half hour. almost there. clear cache and reload it, should be good.

-Yukari- · 08-5-2008, 04:31 AM

Low Quality fixed the uncompressed version's lag problem for me, but thanks for fixing the lag altogether, Tass :)

**Tasselfoot** · 08-5-2008, 04:39 AM

we will still be experimenting with other options... so this may not be permanent in the current re-state.
