    I can't even seem to play autumn with the framerate on 120 and the speed on 2.5. I don't know what's wrong and it works on other songs. The notes just fly across the screen way too fast.

      There was already a little contest for credits hosted by 21992 that did AAA rates (I think 5x rate was the fastest he wanted people to go) that has already concluded.

        Does anyone else end up with a lot of dropped keys on 60 FPS? It didn't happen when I played on 30 FPS, but ever since I switched, I keep getting shittons of dropped keys. I tried switching my key setup, which seemed to help, oddly enough, but it still happens quite a bit.

          Refer to this (and feel free to edit it if you find more), a few songs unfortunately do this right now due to how they were sync'd.

          Hm, and setting it back to 30 magically fixes it? This certainly shouldn't be happening...

            Seems like it, yeah. It just started when I switched to 60 FPS, and then I played like that for awhile, and switched back to 30, and it was fine again. I dunno if it's just MY computer or what, but it kind of sucks, ahah.

                That's very odd, does it seem to be lagging visually? Does it also happen if you play at 31 fps? What if you go into editor mode and just keep hitting quads, do many arrows drop / not show up? Which Flash version are you using, if standalone?
                Dropping keys means flash isn't seeing the key presses in the first place which is weird, bad, and not really fixable in the engine...

                Hm, well that in itself is a bit of a different problem. Feeling wrong, inaccurate, stuttering, these I can understand and potentially work with. Keypress dropping on the other hand should not be happening ever.

                  It's not visually lagging at all. It doesn't happen in 31 FPS. In editor mode, it only occasionally doesn't register that I'm hitting keys. It's, like, one out of 100 arrows or so. I'm using Flash 11.

                    well the keydroppings and splits are 90% of the time my keyboard's fault, but it happens so often iunno which are from the engine or the keyboard.

                      Is there a way to hide opponent accuracy in MP? It's really distracting and might be lagging me a bit, Idk

                      I would support scores > rate 1.0 in increments of .05 to record

                        I am having the same issue. Well, I am noticing in editor mode when I hit quads, they might turn into staircases... if ANYONE else is having the same issue let me know. I hope im not the only one.

                          But then my lady friend got pissed off I was playing FFR instead of playing her. Then for the rest of the night she played the 'Only want me for my body' card and I didn't get to sleep with blankets that night.

                            Ugh, the timing works differently if you increase the framerate and I find this very annoying to the point where I'm going to have to use a lower framerate if I play a very hard song in the tourney.

                            Here's how it works: In 30 fps, if you push a button where it could hit 2 arrows, it'll give you a perfect if one of them in in the perfect window, and if not, it'll seemingly still hit the closest one at least, with late winning the tiebreaker.

                            In 120 fps, it always hits the latest note that's within the window that can currently be hit, so by playing really hard songs way get far more goods and far fewer perfects. An advantage in trying to get combo but a disadvantage in terms of raw score.

                            The difference should be an option available in any fps or just returned back to making it all work how it did in 30 fps before.

                              Just tested this Doug, you're right. How did no one notice this until now..
                              (This shouldn't be a raw score advantage, since a 2 goods are better than a perfect and a miss, but still there shouldn't be any differences between 60fps and 30fps)

                                But if you mash vrofl, you get just piles of goods instead of piles of perfects, and you only hit a few more notes. So if the song is too much too fast for you, it is a disadvantage.
