Does the newest update really improve response time on the PS4? I can’t tell.
That is the point of faster response time. The critical score to beat is less than a frame ( 1 frame in 60 fps game is 16.67 ms).
Of course the faster the better, but once you are under that frame time span, you get in the realm of diminishing returns.
Once you are at approx 10ms its hard to tell where your inputs lands as most 60 FPS fighting games process any input once per frame.
Its when you have 2 or more frames of lag when you start to really see the lost of performance.
Some people with sharper eye hand coordination can supposedly catch a sub frame event, but as it past 10ms it becomes harder and harder to notice.
It also gets worst the older you become. There really is not that many pro players in the thirties, although those who do train themselves do better than those who don’t.
A trained Pro gamer at 32 is going to still have quicker reflexes and visual acuity than a non gamer at 23. But in General a 23 year old will have better reflexes than a 32 year old.
So if my stick has a latency of 11ms and your stick has the latency of 9ms, as long we both got our inputs at the same time with in the same frame we are treated as inputting at the same moment even if you are technically first.
Recently put in a UFB into a madcatz te and had a few issues of my buddies PS4 saying too many USB devices connected then my stick would turn off. It was only his Madcatz te2 and my stick so I ended up moving the board inside my box and it didn’t happen again. I thought maybe the USB wasn’t in correctly but is this a thing that can happen? I soldered the RS LS Turbo and Home from the PCB onto the fightboard but does this cause more draw or anything. After I moved the board around in the TE I didn’t have the same issue for the rest of the night(about 4 hours).
What USB cable were you using ? The USB A to B printer type cable, or a cable soldered onto the USB header pins or connected by a jumper (if your UFB was presoldered?)
USB A to B printer cable
Then I have no idea. I’m sorry.
What is the UFB mounted on? How did you screw it in?
Was it touching metal ? Maybe something was shorted out?
I had it sitting on the very bottom of the TE itself so the chances of it touching metal are pretty high. I ended up moving it to sit on the plastic above next to the stock PCB and didn’t have it spaz it again. I’m guessing having it touch metal is a big no no?
It’s causing a short 100%. Never let a bare PCB touch a metal surface.
Go to Michaels and get adhesive backed craft foam, cut it to fit you UFB and stick it to the bottom. Instant insulator.
Here’s what I am talking about: http://www.michaels.com/creatology-adhesive-foam-sheet/M10032002.html?dwvar_M10032002_color=Black#q=foam&start=87
Having it touch the metal panel below kinda bridge solder contacts. So next time you want it on the “metal panel”, just kinda put some non-static barrier below or something, or even put it in a box. Basically having it on the metal panel is a big no no. But yea don’t do that next time Illya, luckily the board didn’t die. xD
Thank god it didn’t fry I can’t believe I didn’t think of that. I do have some of the adhesive PCB mounts on the way thanks for the help guys.
No problem. Just double check and make sure everything is working. Now you see why virtually all PCBs of any type are either mounted on insulated standsoffs of some sort or on wood/plastic.
Anybody have suggestions on an easy way to mount the pcb in a Razor Atrox?
I just screwed it down with an improvised plastic spacer beneath it. Trick is to screw down one hole the turn it a bit till a second hole lines up with the honeycomb.
Use the Honey Comb material to screw the PCB in
hot glue
McRib juice.
If you had to choose only one of them wired up: tpkey, R3 or L3 button?
(I ask here because it’s on my UFB, but I could, of course, have asked in another general thread. But screw it.)
It depends of the platform you play most on.
On ps4 definitely tpkey.
TPkey for PS4. TPkey will function as “Select” in all non PS4 games. TPkey is pretty important!
R3 and L3 are the same buttons as the “Analog push buttons” on the Xbox 360 controllers. That is, pushing down the left stick or right stick for the click buttons under them. Not essential but can be VERY useful for shortcut keys in SF5. Most fighting games don’t use these buttons.
Okey! TPkey it is. Thanks:)
