Hey guys, I've noticed that playing on the new velocity engine makes the game lag a lot more than the original version. The velocity engine is of course a million times better and I'd much rather play on it but most of the time it is laggy for me. I have a brand new computer with an i7 and gtx 460 amongst other things so I don't think it's my computer. I seriously doubt it's the internet connection because I was downloading a movie earlier at 1.4 MB/s and was playing other flash games that had no lag whatsoever. I never play with any other programs open while playing FFR. Is there some way to tweak flash to make FFR run better for me? I need help.

Re: Velocity Engine
are you playing it on a flash player or an internet browser? If you are playing playing on firefox, ie, etc. then I think that's your problem. -

Re: Velocity Engine
Is there a way to make the game window smaller? I have trouble playing when the game is that large? Is there a way to re-size it?Comment

Re: Velocity Engine
If you re-size the window, it should re-size it.Comment

Re: Velocity Engine
regardless, it's laggy. I play on a standalone and it's terrible. The lag is so bad you can't AAA any songIt's getting better all the time
I used to get mad at my school (No, I can't complain)
The teachers who taught me weren't cool (No, I can't complain)
You're holding me down (Oh Oh)
Turning me round (Oh Oh)
Filling me up with your rules (Oooh)Comment

Re: Velocity Engine
Yeah, it still lags in the stand alone player. I don't know a lot about coding but is it possible that the velocity engine could be edited to be more efficient? Obviously the work done so far is amazing, and I know that the engine is being improved every day but is possible that coding could be causing the lag? I'm not trying to whine about it, because I'm going to play regardless, I just wanted to see if there was a known reason for the lag. Thanks for your help so far. I have nothing but praise for the work being done since the site came back. Keep it up.Comment

Re: Velocity Engine
Actually, I was lag-free for a while here but I also eventually started lagging much more out of nowhere with standalone. Not freezes, just frameskips from time to time.Comment

Re: Velocity Engine
I've been playing on velo's engine for months now. I'm sure I've AAA'd stuff in that time. I can AAA 11s on it, so apparently your computer sucks.
To OP, Download Gamebooster, Change to Classic theme instead of Aero, as well as playing in the standalone. I rarely get lag, like, once a week or something. And I mean a single lag spike.Comment

Re: Velocity Engine
i ran into a weird bug the other day with velocity engine + standalone.. recover wasnt working, and every note i hit counted as both a boo, and whatever timing i hit it at.. heres a replay of the bug:

Re: Velocity Engine
I might be crazy, but the velocity engine seems to love to crash whatever it's running in. I tried running it in the standalone, I use chrome as my main browser and it crashes both near the beginning of songs pretty frequently. It's always as soon as I hit a key, so I think the bug might reside in key press code, or the arrow hit event code.Comment
