Optimizing FightCade 2 for Arcade-Like experience (Lowest Input Lag Possible)

TLDR Version: 06:15
A brief rundown on how to properly optimize FightCade 2 to get the best arcade-like experience in terms of input latency.

[@BianicEpicVideos]

Bro... Thank you so much for demonstrating and explaining how to improve the fightcade experience!

[@GrumpyStoic]

Great video, thanks for putting the time in.👍

[@karcaz]

Thanks silent, i'll going to try this optimization

[@freeair7292]

it worked,thanks

[@snakemen6667]

one question i did the same options for your video but i can't use the fullscreen mode because of a black screen when i start the game, there is a fix for that thing ?

[@ZogXll]

Awesome video, thanks

[@lucasd5951]

very nice

[@blufightcade3938]

i want to play snes games like this, but idk how any help?

[@Aky66100]

Massive respect to you for doing this my guy

[@berniemackattack86]

So I downloaded the update or so I thought I did and now it won't run at all. Its just keeps saying updating fightcade for like an hour straight..

[@gaelyagami9745]

¿How can i enable the enhanced filter from select blitter?

[@YonkoThanos]

As soon as I click any of the Runahead options the game loops and becomes non responsive. Any suggestions?

[@rafaeldiniz5552]

You will need a good cpu to enable this option

[@The_Rahavic]

Mine opens flycast so I don't have any video options

[@alienszez]

I heard that full screen mode messes with the netcoxe. Know anything about that?

[@borponoida9161]

Thanks! Now me and my discord can have a better private Darkstalkers tournament.

[@eduardobrigas4177]

why every time I'm trying to put my resolution in full screen doesn't work, just not responding

[@silent-ninja837]

In windowed mode under video settings, drop the menu down and click select blitter, and then try different blitters. Depending on your computers video card setup fullscreen might not be possible with certain blitters. The basic and/or soft blitters should work on all computers though.

[@elect9816]

Huge respect smh input lag has been the reason of me not wanting to play any More

[@cyber8642]

How do you display the FPS and ping during a match?

[@cyber8642]

@Konga I figured that out, you just need to hit the backspace key during the game

[@Kage5868]

fullscreen mode should be exclusive or windowed?

[@silent-ninja837]

True Fullscreen aka Exclusive

[@bernardoluz5321]

I generally avoid run-ahead these days, because of rollbacks. 1-frame run-ahead kind of means rollback frames plus 1 when a rollback happens...

[@silent-ninja837]

Great point and this is something I have also come to realize. However the negative impacts of this in my opinion are much greater in games like street fighter 3rd strike or super turbo. However you can always just play people who are geographically close to you. Runahead off is also not a bad option as long as in fullscreen and smoothing at 0.

[@vanillakeksik]

Thx

[@TheCodeAlwaysWins]

So this is how you get that -2ms input. Nice 👍👍

[@worldofretrogameplay6963]

I don’t get it. I have a high-quality wifi setup. On my Arcade1up machines, my wifi ping is between 16-32. When I play Fightcade on wifi, my ping is 132-200. The input lag is horrible. I don’t have any way to use wired, since it would take 500ft of cables to reach my machine. After 300ft of wired cable, there is signal degradation. What can you do? 🤷

[@silent-ninja837]

Ping is relative to what/who you are communicating with. FightCade displays your opponents ping to you, as what Arcade1Up does. So whatever ping you are seeing is just a representation of the distance between you and the player. If you followed this tutorial and did everything I mentioned, then your input lag is 0 (better than Arcade1Up)

[@rafaeldiniz5552]

FC is only possible play good if you are wired, bc the old games doest work good with wifi.

[@ThunderForce222]

what if you cant install nvidia

[@FGvici]

Is this also good playing with an overseas player?

[@silent-ninja837]

Not particularly good with delay 0 and runahead 2 against players with over 150ms-200ms. Runahead off or Runahead 1 with delay at 1 is probably a better option if you insist on playing vs overseas players but as a competitive player I typically avoid anyone not in my same region or continent.

[@haroldyoingco2676]

How about for flycast? How will you set it up. For mvc2

[@silent-ninja837]

I haven't been active too much on FightCade and so I haven't had a chance to test MvC2 on Flycast yet but I may make a video on it if it calls for it.

[@haroldyoingco2676]

Thanks mate. This video was very helpful as well

Runahead causes all kinds of sync problems for me w/ regards to proper ranked game reporting.

[@IcyFir3902]

Okay. But does the anolog sticks work on controller?

[@Rosendo24]

Yes, it does

[@IcyFir3902]

@@Rosendo24 then how do you make them work? As in use them for movement?

[@Renulph]

If someone is using windowed and you're not, does their setting affect you? or their vsync affect your latency?

[@silent-ninja837]

It does not because it's a local machine thing. it's not actually sending any other/different data to your opponent than it would otherwise. You may get lagged for a moment once they switch over to fullscreen. On fightcade1 it was reported that fullscreen somehow caused issues for the opponent but I believe thats been fixed.

Very good configuration, a ryzen 3 3200g can easily run this
