      Division 2, I formally surrender. There is no way I can be able to pull off a 4-0-0-0 on tabi shirabe given the equipment that I currently have. I can't run the R^3 engine smoothly enough on this computer to have the timing input properly work, and as for Velocity, the correct offset on that engine for my equipment is somewhere between 1 and 2, and Velocity doesn't accept decimal offsets, thus I cannot time my pattern with the music.


      Tournaments Won:
      The RPG Tournament (hosted by YoshL) - 8.1.2014 - 9.19.2014
      The FFR Fall Tournament - D2 (hosted by Kanzas) - 9.9.2014 - 9.30.2014

        What's your frame rate on R^3?

          Default is set to 30, and I've had tried both 20 and 15. 30 gives me more issues than a lower number, but if I go too low, it would improve the performance the arrows themselves would then start skipping on the screen, making it difficult for me to figure out when I should be tapping the arrows.

            Hmm, you should be raising the frame rate, not lowering it. Try 45 or 60 to start with.

            If you're like me, those two will run too smoothly and make you go cross-eyed. It's worth trying though.

              - try 31 FPS.
              - take 2 off of your global offset and 1 off of your judge offset to emulate the same play on 30 FPS. As an example, I play the song Cold Heart and can AAA it on 3 global/1 judge -- on 31 FPS, I can AAA it on 1 global/0 judge with relatively close accuracy.

              Playing on 31+ FPS triggers the secondary engine code that allows for more precise values in timing -- this means that you will be able to utilize decimal offsets while still appearing to play 30 FPS. (Decimal values do not work at 30 FPS, and setting your FPS to under 30 just makes it play 30.)

                I've tried this myself, and it made me worse. Doesn't it make it ms timing like Stepmania or something? Correct me if I'm wrong.

                  I am in such a poor mental state because of this tournament.

                  When the game isn't fun for you anymore, take a break. It's not a job, nobody here is professional and getting paid to play and force themselves to constantly improve... it's a game.

                        You can't really have ms timing on FFR -- it's still reading a beatbox array that is approximated by frame timing in Flash; even if it's "ms timing", it's still artificial timing since at simplest form, this is what a beatbox looks like:

                        Code:
                        [205, L, "red"],[207, D, "yellow"],[212, U, "yellow"],[214, R, "red"]
                        Which is still based off of original 30 FPS engines.

                        The switch should make the game appear the same, but you can more precisely adjust your timing.

                            Well I'm getting scared now because I'm not getting any time to play the D5 song and when I do, I'm consistently getting at least 18 goods near the end. Very frustrated right now, don't know if I should give up vRofl or not even with 2 days left....

                              This D1 song is way too easy I don't know why I have trouble with but it's a 30's song (*^*)
