Go to the SUPERSTREETFIGHTERIV folder in CAPCOM in My Documents, open config, and change RenderingThread to OFF. It should help a bit, though connections still aren’t as stable as on GFWL.
This post was originally part of another thread that was merged into this one, so now I’m talking to no one. Neat.
so if AE is still online on GFWL,…does it mean the ULTRA upgrade will be too?
cuz it says it wont support new titles, but Ultra is a downloadable “upgrade” of AE.
think it will be on GFWL?
The stick thing is not a negative. Particularly on PC it’s a good thing if Windows recognizes your stick and the games don’t. Because then you can for sure utilize JoyToKey or 360ce
Also use Winamp or something similar with lightwieght memory / cpu usage and hotkeys. CTRL ALT pageup page down enter ect. Super easy old school gamer style.
Achievements don’t lag me. Titles / Icons don’t lag me.
Selecting fight anyone from any region lags me, but I do it anyway for faster fights.
People who lag usually don’t take the time to make sure they have the best network driver, cooled stable router, decent internet aren’t on the coffee shop next door’s wifi.
Paid DLC is complete crap because they advertised Ultra as having all of it initially on the commercial page, I paid for the DLC back on sf4 ps3 wont buy it again for awhile even though I like the Alt 1 the most.
Hello guys, i used to play this game online with GFWL, it was almost perfect. Now i just reinstalled it after some time on steamwork… OH MAN . Its just unplayable, at least for me… i want to understand if this depends on my PC or its just bad on steam? I have seriously heavy lag wiht everyone…even people from same region. Signal icons of the players in game are flashing green, or yellows, reds and orange… A time you were able to do your combo even with lag, but now the frames just drop making my life impossible…
What i did : Steam overlay OFF , Steam cloud OFF, vsync and triple buffering OFF… nothing changes, still lag…
I see everyone using dhalsim or non combo charachters now…so it isnt just me right?? Im really frustrated i just bought this on steam today and after a long download i cant play.
I do not know if anyone else is experiencing this lately but I and a few people I know have been suffering from horrible lag more than before. Sometimes the game drops frames making it look as if it is in fast forward; matches where it freezes frequently during the match; the constant “Waiting for player” message with dropped inputs. It was not even this bad a few weeks ago.
i swear to god that the input lag can change even in training mode ( not constant ), let alone playing online, when i play with a friend usually the 5-6 first matchs arnt that bad, then the shit start, i miss simple combos , watching my character standing still in the middle of a combo like a dumb fuck
i cant tell if its the input lag that vary or the speed of the game,everything run at a constant 60fps ( in matchs )
I originally bought the game on Steam, so I can’t go back to GFWL.
I’ve heard about changing in-game max ping, but it doesn’t seem to help anymore. First I heard 1500, and everything was pretty okay for 2 weeks. Then yesterday I started getting issues again, so I switched to 1000, and still getting bad games. Not sure what’s going on. I hope everybody at least has RenderingThread to OFF.
framerate FIXED, RenderingThread OFF
…and open all Steam ports
…and turn Steam overlay off
…and turn Steam notifications off (even the little corner messages cause the game to freeze)
then the game works well with people from my area that i know for a fact they don’t run the game on toasters with various programs running in the background that choke the CPU or connection randomly.
if your opponent doesn’t have the right settings, he’ll butcher the game for you as well. that’s how the dumbass full synchronous netcode in SF4 works.
