Finally fixed ATI VSync issues!
« on: February 15, 2010, 05:23:54 am »
I can finally play Audiosurf in full screen without input lag!  ;D

You need to make a profile in ATI Tray Tools (I have version 1.6.9.1472) for Audiosurf, make sure you use QuestViewer.exe for the executable or else this won't work...

I did a search the other day, and it seemed this hadn't been solved yet... But now it is :)




Just disabling VSync is NOT enough, you MUST use the Vista Workaround setting in ATI Tray Tools

Going to the Direct3D Tweaks tab will get you to the place you need.

What about XP users? Will this work for them too?

(I assume Win7 will work fine)

Green = listening, red = surfing

 :o OMG!OMG!OMG!OMG!OMG!OMG!OMG!OMG!OMG!

Sticky or at least fit it into another sticky!
Audiosurf is like a mix of tetris, need for speed and pot... Look at all the colours, dude!

It should work in XP...

I wasn't aware XP had a problem, lol.

XP doesn't have the annoying background stuff that Vista/Win7 has...

People should try it and let us know :)

It's much better when you don't have to run it windowed!

Make sure people report back that it works, so it's not one of those freak things that only happened on my computer, lol.

Performance gets a boost for me, as well, because I have an x2 and in windowed mode, it only uses one core, but in full screen, the ATI drivers kick in the second core :)

They might still only tick over 35 - 40% but at least that's on BOTH cores, not just one.

 ;D

Awesome on both counts!  ;D

Had to make sure, because I'd randomly gone through the registry and messed with anything that said "vsync" in it, related to graphics, lmao.
