vsynch patch causes choppy gameplay?
« 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?

Baity: For a moment, I thought you broke 1.1billion. Upon looking at my score.dat, I can assume that you destroyed the score that is my failed (first!) 1cc attempt on my first day of playing. Congratulations.

in the ini, is the number next to vsynch 0? Try setting it to 1 if it is.

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.

Did you even TEST it? It doesn't add any input lag.

Wait, it's possible to get rid of that?

*switches vsync to 1 and loads up EoSD*

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

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.
