Ball stutter #146

Closed ze-bob closed 5 years ago

ze-bob commented 5 years ago

Hello Freezy, first sorry for my poor English. Here is my setup: Windows 7 64 Intel Core i7 870 12Go DDR3 GTX 1050Ti 4Go 3 screens for the pincab.

The screen used for the DMD is a 10" at 1280X800 of resolution, when i play with external DLL option the ball is stuttering, it is unplayable, i tried to step down the resolution to 800X600 but nothing goes better. I don't understand where is the problem.

I made a log for AC-DC table:

Thank you by advance.

That's difficult to debug. Does it stutter when unplugging one screen? When using a non-colored ROM? When not using the external DLL?

Hello Freezy, this problem is only with colored ROM and external DLL, if i don't use it all is smooth. I must try to unplug one screen, perhaps the GTX 1050Ti is at the limit that it can work. Thank you for your answer.

Solved. I just upgrade from Windows Seven to Windows 10, all works smooth.
