I'm assuming I should use the "GDI" mode in TSPatch? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, GDI and OpenGL is the new ts-ddraw. GDI works better though, I may remove OpenGL on release. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zjorz Posted April 22, 2018 Share Posted April 22, 2018 Less options would actually be a nice. The current config tool has so many options, where everybody has to mix them up to find out what works for his system. It would be great if this could be reduced to make it more user friendly.

Are you talking about the new one? http://downloads.cncnet.org/addons/ts-config.7z New one is stripped down and much easier to use. ts-ddraw GDI will become the default setting and it should work out of the box for everyone once done Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[CC] RaVaGe Posted May 2, 2018 Share Posted May 2, 2018 Yo @FunkyFr3sh is there any way to improve input lag, my mouse cursor feels slightly like a slinky in intense games which causes me to miss some clicks on fast moving targets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does that only happen with ts-ddraw? Updated to 1.1.3.3, there was a bug that could cause the game to freeze sometimes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Disabling DWM (Desktop Window Manager / Screen compositor) on Vista and 7 with DDRAW emulation made those games very responsive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tore Posted May 5, 2018 Share Posted May 5, 2018 Maybe it needs some sort of flag or similar to make Windows desktop compositing stay away? It might be handling it as a simple desktop app right now. I have a similar issue with cnc-ddraw and ts-ddraw. Maybe WinXP compatibility mode or something can help for the time being. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I Not possible as since Windows 10 desktop compositor is always on and can't be disabled, I've researched the subject as I wanted to switch it off for a nice low latency desktop experience.

Not sure if it helps, was only reading about it I did try it, btw it's only compatible with certain games and not all of them. I had it on automatic to enable when a compatible game is running and I noticed no differences. I did, however, tweak it's registry settings and noticed a small/slight reduction in input lag and a less volatile frame rate. Meaning the FPS was less likely to dip to lower numbers and maintained a better average/consistency. Some step in the emulation/rendering process causes the cursor to become laggy, the best way to make it more noticeable is to try and 'draw'/move the cursor in small 8 shape. I had this exact same 'lag' on Counter-Strike: Global Offensive on two different PCs, including my new Ryzen 8 core/16GB super computer, which was fixed by a recent bios update. Though in the case of YR & classic C&C titles I'm certain that this is caused by a latency issue in some OS module, which makes me unsure if it's possible to patch it by going around it.

FunkyFr3sh Posted May 22, 2018 Author Share Posted May 22, 2018 Pre-release 1.1.3.4 Support for OpenGL and GDI renderers in the same dll. The renderer will default to OpenGL and fallback to GDI on failure New options in ddraw.ini - Vsync=(yes|no) and Render=(auto|opengl|gdi) Fixes more freezing bugs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dommerik Posted June 2, 2018 Share Posted June 2, 2018 (edited) Trying out the experimental stretching on TS. While it works during the actual gameplay, it boxes itself into a corner in the main menu and when pausing the game. Cutscenes are A-OK though!

Plokite_Wolf Posted June 5, 2018 Share Posted June 5, 2018 (edited) On TS-DDraw 1.1.3.5 in Tiberian Sun. All is good except the ingame menus that are really flashy when navigating between them. Also the new TSConfigFull.exe is straight-up missing a lot of features, including the renderer choice. Edited June 5, 2018 by Plokite_Wolf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack Chen Posted June 27, 2018 Share Posted June 27, 2018 Great thanks to your fantastic work.Really wanna know which is the best render up to now. GDI or Opengl？Why are the sizes of Opengl different between the github and the released version in CnCNet？79kb and 29.5kb？Which one is the latest one？ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Latest one is the one on github, it actually has both OpenGL and GDI in 1 file. It has a bug with the radar though, so you might need to wait for the next release and just keep using the older ones for now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FunkyFr3sh Posted July 7, 2018 Author Share Posted July 7, 2018 Pre-release 1.1.4.2 minimap bug should be fixed. auto renderer had a bug too that could cause a black screen and it should be fixed now. https://github.com/CnCNet/ts-ddraw/releases Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
