    Visual aides

    Okay, my issue is NOT lag, and is NOT window size, just to make that perfectly clear.

    Playing this game, to fix close/constricted/hard to read parts of the chart can be fixed by changing the scroll speed to be faster. This needs a careful balance with the ability to read specific notes quickly. So too fast, and it becomes too hard to read the chart in a different way.

    Playing Stepmania, it has more "height" to show the notes/give warning without sacrificing the scrolling speed.

    Is there a way to show more notes on the FFR game window without making the scroll speed slower?

    To my knowledge nope.

    You could try ThirdStyle, but people complain about there being too much window. (woot advertising dead things)

      if you head on over to the R3 Beta discussion board, you could probably put in a comment about this, and hope the dev (arcnmx) spots it

          you could play on r^2 instead, but i really wouldn't recommend that.

          just try to get used to r^3 or hope arc increases the max scrolling space (he really should since there is a screen cut option).

              On the legacy engine, there's an option to make the notes scroll to the left or right. Since the engine window is 550x400 and doesn't have the life/score bars in the way with this method, this is a quick way to give yourself more space. You might have to mess with the speedmod a bit, though, since the arrows will go faster to compensate.

                and then rotate your screen if you don't want to learn a new scroll

                  you don't. the max scrolling space is predefined to how each engine was programmed.

                    Well it would be a nice function to have, really.
