You can kill the lag by throwing the keyboard in the garbage can.

It's the only solution.

You can't play with a wireless keyboard.

Case closed.

You can buy a wired keyboard that looks exactly like your wireless keyboard. Then convince yourself it's the same thing. Voila, lag gone.

Unfortunately, there is no other way. Wireless keyboards aren't meant for FFR - in fact, they're not meant for gaming.

So you guys are telling me there there are no modifications I can make to any software/hardware to make this lagless? I can't do anything with the game, my computer, or the keyboard? Yikes, that's a bummer.

Thanks for the help, though.

It's not just the lag, but some wireless keyboards go to standby mode if you dont press a button every 5-6 seconds, so playing FFR/SM is a pain in the cornhole.

Also, yea, the lag screws everything up. i can get a solid A on sum midare dumps with a wired that i fail on wireless.

Yes, but who wants to take the time getting used to hitting the arrows earlier than normal?

AAAs - 3

Hitting arrows is fine, PA is a problem.

I'm using a wireless keyboard and I'm prettymuch fine with it. Although the reciever is like 2 inces away from the keyboard it's kinda pointless being wireless. you'll get used to hitting it earlier. Like when i play ddr my steps are consistently like 0.1 seconds early. If that's a problem then get wired i guess.
