Sisable snaking, update drivers. Try OpenGL if still unhappy.

not sure what "sloppy" means.

But I don't get it, to be honest.

This has been happening to me also, I can confirm that those short sliders are the cause. I'm afraid I can't add any more info.

Seems like it's extremely low fps even though it says 200-300fps.peppy wrote:

mmsliders, yes. With peppysliders the same issue occurs.BRBP wrote:

Back to the topic:
Do you lag if you make a 2000bpm song and fill it with 1/8's, or only when there are too many sliders at once? (I don't, with lower comp. specs)
Are you using semi-transparent sliders?
Smaller slider balls?
When you "go down to 20fps", does it also effect things like approach circles, or just your cursor?
And the BPM doesn't matter much, anything that's higher than 100BPM 1/8 causes a bunch of small 'freezes' in the game. (usually 0.25s or so, but sometimes more.)
Interesting fact that it disappears in windowed or OpenGL modes...
Maybe you could capture the stuff you experience?

yep, I stopped using DirectX because of thisgrumd wrote:

I think it has to do with my graphic drivers though.
the ending froze my computer lol (with DirectX)

When I get home I'll try to get some proof, but funnily enough fraps always records everything with constant 60fps (unless some other program is making osu! lag).
This is the lag I get (With DirectX)
That's why I use OpenGL

Holy crap. Have you tried different versions of graphics card drivers?
I guess, if I revert back to the old drivers (the one that came with the OS install)
With the latest drivers from Nvidia, I get this lag on osu! but not anywhere else.

What card? I have a gtx460 and using 306.97 and I experience no such issue.

Laptop of course
If it's a laptop, did you check how hot it is?
I don't think that has to do with it. Like I said only occurs with the latest graphic drivers and only with DirectX
My room is cold (and my hands are cold) and my laptop isn't unatural hot in any way.

Updating drivers worked for me. The thing is I didn't actually UPDATE but re-installed the ones I already had.
You should check the temp sensors in your computer. Depending on how the laptop was built, the GPU can be easily be around 70°C or more even if you don't feel heat from it when touching it.Saten wrote:

Strangely I get weird lag issues pretty much no matter what. Even though it says im gettong 60FPS, its looking more like 25FPS
and I've got a GTX260 so im sure im well above what is needed to play the game smoothly (core i7, 8gb DDR3 memory btw)

59°C isn't that bad.Full Tablet wrote:

Most of these problematic threads all seem to stem with nvidia gpu's, Only thing I can think of is the possibility of a bad driver distribution for those who updated recently. Try the driver that came with your card/OEM manufacturer when you bought it
Yeah I'm pretty sure it would make it smoother
But the manufacturer drivers doesn't support things such as PhysX

Just try a different driver version. It doesn't need to be the one with windows. Nvidia offers like 200+ driver versions which should support your card. Try a few until you find a stable one.
If it's a laptop and you can't use actual nvidia distros, this site may be of help: http://www.laptopvideo2go.com

Mine is Radeon HD 4xxx (don't remember)
I updated drivers like 2 days ago and the lag seems to be much worse now even using OpenGL
I'm using mmsliders and disabled snaking
Also, when the frame limiter is "Unlimited", shit gets real, lol
Lag everywhere

If the other pc I have was in working condition I'd test this out since its using a 3850 which is closer to your card than the one im currently on.
I'm not using Nvidia (not rich enough) and I've had this problem with every PC I've used so far, even when using an i5, Intel HD 4000 (i think that's the name of the graphics card) and my laptop's Temp says 40°c. Of course, PC specs help a lot reducing lag, but it's still there, usually dropping 1 frame every slider (even though the fps is still above 200, but I notice it when playing) and making the game unplayable when there are a lot of sliders...
By reading this thread i found out that OpenGL doesn't have that issue. Tested it and it worked, however, i need to use Vsync when using OpenGL because using anything else produces HORRIBLE black and white lines, appearing randomly over the screen. osu! might one day be OpenGL based (peppy said he wants to do that). I have nothing to complain if Combo Fire and Shaders are one day implemented for OpenGL, and if i could disable Vsync without hurting my eyes...
