screen shrinking

[deaf1]

everyone says screen shrinking helps you alot how do you do it and how far do you shrink it.

Re: screen shrinking

You unmaximize the screen and scroll it so you only see about the top half of the screen or so. Not everyone does their best at the exact same amount, experiment with it to see where you play best at.

Re: screen shrinking

My best is cutting right through the middle of where the perfects show up, any farther up and my reaction time usually isn't fast enough. It helps by allowing you to concentrate on less arrows at a time.

Re: screen shrinking

I like to be able to see my accuracy, so I shrink to the bottom the the 'Perfect'. Whatever works, I guess. At least we'll have speedmods soon.

Re: screen shrinking

Screen shrinking helps me because it decreases the timing window, making it easier for people with faster reaction timing. This is my screencut, but experiment and try to find what's best for you.

Re: screen shrinking

I screen shrink up to about the number of my combo.

But do a search first =p

That looks like about where Tass cuts his, although I doubt Shadow Hunter is in his league. I remember Drugstore and Tass commenting at the con, "who needs to see their combo?"

I don't screencut, but I think I could benefit from trying it.

Holy God are you serious?

I think most beginning screen shrinkers start out small, and cut more as they gain more skill. I did =/

Re: screen shrinking

I find it funny how the people here know NOTHING about my SM history. Ask Dynam0, I'm not a newb. That's a good SC for me because the arrows in FFR go REALLY slow. So slow that I need to cut so much I can react instantaneously.

Re: screen shrinking

taht exaactly where i sc....but in videos of really good ppl its like shadow's. and i think that where u sc depends on the deificulty..like more for standards and less for very challengings

Re: screen shrinking

I SC the same for every difficulty, lol. I can read the notes well, and I'm fast. It's just that I can't PA well for some reason. Time to move to J6 on SM.
