Do you prefer Vsync ON or OFF?

zworqy · Post by **zworqy** » 5 May 2005, 00:31

Do you prefer to have Vsynco on or off, generally speaking. Like I f you could only choose one for the rest of your life or you're playing a level where it doesn't matter what you use?

Dont know how to change it, where do you switch it on or off?

milagros · Post by **milagros** » 5 May 2005, 01:08

hmm, i used to have vsync on all the time, short time ago switched to off
dunno, tried maybe 5 levs with that

MJXII · Post by **MJXII** » 5 May 2005, 02:38

Off. If I turn it on my comp goes a bit insane so I'm kinda stuck this way..

Dynamo · Post by **Dynamo** » 5 May 2005, 03:25

I'd like to keep it off...but whenever i turn it back on (my other comp for example) elma goes insane and its impossible to play...wont even load up the game...its sad cuz my other comp was so much better for elma than this one lol

now the internet dont even work on it...piece a junk

Has somebody done that?
My knowledge of vertical synchronization effect on playing is far from being able to design levels according to that in such a radical way you described...

sierra · Post by **sierra** » 5 May 2005, 09:40

in general OFF, though ON for certain internal levels, basically whatever zweq and luther stated in that other topic

i don't know enough about it to know when i have to use ON, for example, if some wcup level was better with ON i wouldn't realize

Boomer · Post by **Boomer** » 5 May 2005, 10:02

Yeah, OFF is the one I use. When I have Vsync ON, it feels like driving with a fat guy on the bike. Feels so slowly..

Revolt · Post by **Revolt** » 5 May 2005, 10:16

i like off

Post by **SveinR** » 5 May 2005, 10:26

I just play with ON all the time cause i don't bother tempering about such minuscule details.

so you don't care about having more powerful bounces, better brakes and such?

Not really. I might change to OFF in a short battle level where the sole trick is to do a hang.

levels where you have to go through a hole with the wheels, or a rollercoastertype lev can sometimes be so narrow at some parts that it's only posible to go through with on. petsen (or actually his gf

) made a lev like this in a battle i remember...

Post by **SveinR** » 5 May 2005, 11:15

Hmm, but as vsync on is usually the default, it means it is only made such as you have to switch to vsync off to not be able to complete it..

zworqy · Post by **zworqy** » 5 May 2005, 12:37

Heh, I never said what I prefer myself. Anyway it's OFF.

I feel the opposite, ON feels lighter so I prefer OFF

I play ON, normally. Better in every way, except maybe facked bounces and buggy tricks :X

It might be the default on most gfx cards, but I think for most players that have tried both on and off, off becomes the one they use as default.

"its OFF all the time. If i go back to ON it feels like the bike is made out of jell-o and soft, like lagging when i rotate."

precisely that with me too ^^

and it makes quite a difference to have on or off in my computer

i switch to on randomly on some battle levs when the others have max better time than me if it's a small hoyla or some lev with a tricky part, or if it involves a controlled landing from some high place (don't ask me if it works, once i changed and it did so if i bother i change these days, maybe some pro can say of true of false) or if i am bored of the lev and just remember to mess up with vsync to test teh

Off. I hate to "slide" on ground when I brake.

well.. you got it (in one way) wrong... slides is easier with off... yet... in some places you cant make mega turn hangs: like in Dowhnhill, with ON, which I guess Dunedan means... some places you just dont get the grip with on... but for brake with pressure down and slide... like in uphill or enigma multi.... you need off...

so I guess dunedan maybe didnt get it wrong... just BarTek misunderstood him.. but then: BarTek isnt know for his good understanding.

your ON is also weird Luther

but cool that it's often easy to recognise replays driven by you.

Karlis · Post by **Karlis** » 6 May 2005, 23:52

OFF as default, but I try usually ON for some mins when I get frustrated to some trick or lev
