Questions for 3S GGPO players

Classic Fighting Games Street Fighter III: 3rd Strike

Isotopez and I are doing input lag tests on all the platforms 3s is played on. We’ve done CPS3 and all the console ports, now we are doing PC emulators. But I want to get a feel for what your setups are like. So if you guys could answer a few questions, that would be helpful. :slight_smile:

CRT or LCD?
What operating system do you use?
What blitter?
Triple buffering on or off?
Force 60hz on or off?
Full screen or windowed?

And if you are using Windows 7 - Aero on or off?

If there’s an agreed upon standard, that would be helpful to know too.

I use:

LCD
Windows 7 Home Premium - Aero on
Experimental Blitter
No Triple Buffering
Force 60 hz
Full Screen

I would imagine that using CRT would be better, but I don’t experience any lag on mine . . .

My settings are the same as his, minus the fullscreen. I use Double-sized window.

LCD - sub-1 frame according to the tech board thread

Force 60hz is greyed out so I assume it’s on by default.
