Title: vsynch patch causes choppy gameplay?
Post by: nintendonut888 on August 23, 2009, 10:40:24 PM: As I've made annoyingly clear, I have a new computer. While playing the games though, I noticed that the vsynch patch makes the game a bit choppy. Not enough to cause lag or indeed even enough to affect my skill, but it's much more prevalent than on my old computer. I also tested, and without the patch the game runs normally. Is there ANY way to reduce this choppiness?

But isn't the point of the patch to turn that thing off? Don't you get input lag if you set it to 1?

Tell that to the perfect controls.

Basically, Zengeku Post/10

*switches vsync to 1 and loads up EoSD*

Oh. Wow. That's a lot nicer. Now I feel like an idiot.

Post by: nintendonut888 on August 26, 2009, 06:38:52 AM: Uh, actually the problem doesn't seem to be completely fixed. IN for whatever reason is still a bit choppy even though I set the vsynch to 1. Also, the ultra smooth performance I was getting when I first got this computer went away. D: I was just starting to like it.

I decided "why not?" after using it with MoF.

And the choppiness seems to have been a problem with the computer, because after shutting it down it works fine.
