Any help with this?

[xNiX]

So I recently started playing stepmania again in my free time for fun; however, I noticed that even with my regular speed mod, the arrows really seem blurry to me even if I don't feel fatigued. Its even worse if i see streams over 300 bpm. Does this happen to anyone else? Any sort of remedy? Maybe my eyes are just getting worse. Even when I wear my glasses, it doesn't really help the issue. I do not spend loads of time on my computer like I once did.

It's just readjusting. Play at a slower speed mod and work back up

Even with at a lower speed, it does get blurry pretty bad for me. I feel like my eyes are fucked.

I suggest you take a break and start a quest on trying to figure out if you developped an allergy to something.

Allergies have been a problem ever since I've moved to Oklahoma 2 years ago, but it hasn't stopped me from playing the game.

Re: Any help with this?

similar feeling happened to me after a long break; your eyes are just more untrained and don't work how you expect them to

or maybe it's an actual health issue -- i don't know for certain

Re: Any help with this?

Possibly. I may try getting some sort of allergy meds like haku suggested...or even just figuring out what the problem is. Usually during this time of season, my eyes will turn red in the corners regardless how well I am hydrated. If that doesn't work, I guess I could go visit the optomistrist to see if it's a health related issue. I have noticed when I got rid of my 120hz monitor and switched to 75hz it did make reading a little more difficult. But my MA didn't really change nor has my speed.

Not necessarily. I do want to keep it open to show if have any progress with this issue. Also, maybe someone else could possibly benefit off this.

Is your computer capable of playing the game with v-sync? Maybe if you enable v-sync and turn down some other graphics settings to smoothen the framerate.

I used to play on C735, now I play on C690 because 735 was too fast. So I think finding a comfortable speed is a fairly good thing to try and do.

My life goal in stepmania is to be able to play at c1000 and not be awkward at it

I had this same problem when I started playing O2Jam again, but it seems to have passed enough that I can actually read again.

Just keep playing and your eyes will readjust.

Re: Any help with this?

i know this has happened to me several times. vsync can sometimes cause blurriness, as can certain noteskins (orbular is really blurry for me). as you said, using a monitor with a different refresh rate can take some time to get used to, even if your settings are otherwise the same.

i'd say just get used to it, but that's because i don't really know how to fix this.

I can remember these

C636
C700
C725
C800
C700
C650

Never left C650 again.

Extra speed doesnt mean extra cool
