Input lag

Therion_Prime · #1 04-01-2011, 11:20 PM

Over water I have pretty good fps, yet all inputs I make (joystick or mouse) are delayed approx. half a second. I'm constantly oversteering because of this.

Does anyone else have this problem?

Yes, maybe not half a second but definitely a lag on all joystick inputs. I thought it was due to my PC struggling to cope as no one else seems to have mentioned it. Particularly noticeable when I fire the guns compared to Il1946.

At least two other people are experiencing this:

"I have Psycho_Ch!cken's problem. There is about 700ms of lag between any input and the result taking effect ingame. This includes the mouse, stick, throttle, joystick buttons and head tracking movement. It's mighty infuriating."

fwiw, try disabling the clickable cockpit (F10 key)

Tried this on a lark, didn't help.

what are your computer specs?

the fact it happens when u start shooting could indicate cpu struggling with the sim as the guns fire and create thousands of objects needing ballistic calcs.

control input wise, make sure your sensitivity is on 0, so that there's a 1 to 1 ratio of input versus output

Ugh yes I have noticed this big time, especially now that my FPS is getting to a playable state.

It not only affects joystick movements but looking around (with the hat), using the mouse, and even the keyboard. For instance, when I bring up the Steam overlay and chat while in-game to someone I notice that there is big time input lag.

I'm not sure what's causing this but it's a big game-breaker.
