Title: M2lagfix Setup
Post by: Gamer4life on June 26, 2015, 12:21:46 am: I am almost done with my twin build(build thread coming soon) I have everything up and running im just trying to get m2lagfix setup to get rid of the flashing cars. I used the setting from this post:

http://forum.arcadecontrols.com/index.php/topic,133283.80.html (http://forum.arcadecontrols.com/index.php/topic,133283.80.html)

I cant get the two to link up. Has anyone else have this up and running on just a 2P setup? Any help would be great.

5a. YOU NEED A 8 PLAYER NETWORK! IT DOES NOT WORK WITH LESS UNITS YET :)

I think you'll have to stick with the standard network version for the time being. Have you tired enabling Framsync in your network .ini to see if that helps?

Not really applicable as the lag is in game only, not on attract screen. Can you post a video showing the cars not flashing when in multiplayer.

Thanks

Post by: SailorSat on July 23, 2015, 07:28:25 am: m2lagfix does work with any amout of units. the 8 player requirement was/is for the live spectator feature.

please note: flickering cars most likely happen with framesync=0 (or not defined at all) in m2network.ini
you could try framesync=1 first, but you will most likely get network hiccups (all games freezing for like 1-3 seconds) every now and then.

try these...

m2network.ini #1
Code: [Select]
[Network] RxPort=9101 NextIP=127.0.0.1 NextPort=9102 FrameSync=1
m2lagfix.ini #1
Code: [Select]
[m2rx] LocalHost=<network ip #1> LocalPort=7001 RemoteHost=127.0.0.1 RemotePort=9101 [m2tx] LocalHost=127.0.0.1 LocalPort=9102 RemoteHost=<network ip #2> RemotePort=7002

m2network.ini #2
Code: [Select]
[Network] RxPort=9201 NextIP=127.0.0.1 NextPort=9202 FrameSync=1
m2lagfix.ini #2
Code: [Select]
[m2rx] LocalHost=<network ip #2> LocalPort=7001 RemoteHost=127.0.0.1 RemotePort=9201 [m2tx] LocalHost=127.0.0.1 LocalPort=9202 RemoteHost=<network ip #1> RemotePort=7002
