2. Input Lag Reduction on Fighting Games
For Street Fighter III: 3rd Strike and Garou: Mark of the Wolves, frame timing is everything. Benchmarks performed on Raspberry Pi 4 and PC show that v029729 reduces input lag by approximately 1.5 frames compared to the previous build (v029685). By optimizing the way the emulator polls USB controllers and bypassing unnecessary DirectInput overhead, this set delivers a response time that feels native. When we say "better," we mean you can actually hit your 1-frame links consistently. fba arcade set v029729 better
