Title: Re: 2L2Q2 SBV and Predictions
Post by: Mr. AS on June 28, 2012, 08:10:55 PM
reduce screen res
set the fps for fraps lower/higher (if you have fraps)
Title: Re: 2L2Q2 SBV and Predictions
Post by: nicsan2009 on June 28, 2012, 08:11:35 PM

Title: Re: 2L2Q2 SBV and Predictions
Post by: Mr. AS on June 28, 2012, 08:48:03 PM
did you try both of the solutions at the same time.
and when you lower your screen res you must lower it to the LOWEST POSSIBLE SIZE... it is probably 480 x 600 or something around that

I used the ZD soft game recorder. It's the exact same thing that I am using now.
Title: Re: 2L2Q2 SBV and Predictions
Post by: Mr. AS on June 28, 2012, 10:45:23 PM
well try fiddling around with the framerate even more then ........ find a good balance

if all else fails you can always just speed it up in wmm and put some battle music over it
Title: Re: 2L2Q2 SBV and Predictions
Post by: nicsan2009 on June 28, 2012, 10:47:50 PM
How do you speed it up?
Title: Re: 2L2Q2 SBV and Predictions
Post by: Mr. AS on June 28, 2012, 11:01:34 PM
How do you speed it up?
theres an effect in wmm called Speed Up, Double to speed it up x2, apply it again to speed the vid up x4, again for x8, etc
but first make sure you're not using wmm live (the version that comes with windows 7), you can find windows movie maker 6.0 (the one that isnt total sh**) from http://movies.blainesville.com/2010/05/installing-windows-movie-maker-60-on.html (http://movies.blainesville.com/2010/05/installing-windows-movie-maker-60-on.html)

Title: Re: 2L2Q2 SBV and Predictions
Post by: Jack Daniels on June 29, 2012, 03:53:01 AM
Even though this has been suggested I just want to clarify...

did you lower the resolution for both Windows and RA2?  I had massive lag in Fraps until I lowered the resolution for the Windows Operating system first (Go into control panels, change the screen resolution to something tame like 800x600)

After you do that open up RA2 and then go into the screen resolution settings and set that to match Windows (800x600)

The game will probably run in "windowed" mode, which is not full screen... but Fraps won't care really.  Try recording with those settings.

From there, adjust the FPS rate in Fraps to suit depending on what quality you want.

Post by: nicsan2009 on June 29, 2012, 11:35:23 AM
It Worked! sort  of. I mean the lag is a lot less but not completely gone. I figured out that there is absolutely no lag when I use other robots, but oh well.

In the IRL division, I really like Fracture and Steel Reign (which has an awesome name by the way). The rest is either "meh, it's OK" or "okay what the heck is this pile of junk".

In the DSL standard division (don't call that DSL realistic), they're all pretty standard. And roughly as good as each other. I'm gonna root for the popups as usual.

Losers Bracket Finals are up. Bracket updates will follow.

Just so you guys get an idea of how the championship is gonna work, I will tell you just to make things clear.
IF the winner of the winners bracket wins the the tournament is over and the winner is the champion, HOWEVER if the winner of the losers bracket wins the championship then they are not declared champion immediately, because the winner of the winner's bracket has not lost yet. Instead of crowning a champion then they will have to fight each other again. The winner of that match will be crowned winner of 2L2Q2 regardless of which bracket they were representing.
