delay issue

[xi]

i've played this game for about 2 hours now, which might not seem like much, but there's a weird delay that keeps happening. Once i'm about halfway through a song the audio delays a little bit and I have to hit the notes a little later or earlier. it's really annoying after a while since I get used to the delay then it changes on me. I screwed around with my offset in the options and that just seems to change how much the random delay is changed by. I looked through the steam forums and there's nothing about it. i have no idea what is causing it or if its just me.

What kind of rig are you playing on? It really isn't that demanding of a game, but a low/high Hz monitor, or a poor processor/gpu can cause issues like that in rhythm games.

My gpu is fine but I have an i3 so that's probably it. I do get around 600 fps so i didn't think it would be spec related, but i don't really know. i've played clone hero and osu on this computer as well and neither had any issues so that's why I thought it was weird.

I don't have any issues on a laptop with ONLY i3 6006u (2c4t 2GHz). But I have 240 fps lock on tho

Happens to me too, I tought the notes are offbeat or something, but no. They start to shift as game progresses. Very weird :/

Since this was the only place I found discussing the issue I thought I'd add something: what I have found out is that (for me) the longer the song goes on the larger the disparity becomes. This lead to me testing in the 'offset' menu and after hitting enter on cue for about a minute I discovered what can only lead me to believe that the picture moves faster than the music, and it might even move faster the more time passes (this I am uncertain of and would require more advanced testing) If interest in the issue remains i could upload a video showing the difference.

I've had this issue for weeks and still have no solution, some update broke it or something because I only recently started having this problem

Does the delay refresh when starting a new song? Or does it seem like the next songs get the issue worse and worse?

Because if it's the latter, I think I may be suffering from this too, but it may be a different issue as I don't see any extremes towards the end of the song.

In testing (or rather while playing normally) I have the extra judgment display on, so I can see how accurately I'm hitting. I'm usually really accurate especially on my first "warm up" song, which is usually something of difficulty 7 or 8. I get an acceptable 20% "early" + "late" among all the perfects. That's fine for me especially when the song has over 300 notes anyway.

However, after the 3rd or 4th song I notice that not only am I hitting "late" a lot more, but I'm missing perfects (turning them into great) even on the same song. It's only 3 songs in so it definitely isn't finger fatigue: I've been typing over 25 years now, and I used to be a typewriter typist. I'd think the stamina of my fingers would be above average to say the least.

Whenever I check the offset, it hasn't changed or anything. But the longer I play the game in a single session, the worse my timings in the actual songs seem to get.

My issue is strictly song-to-song, but it gets worse the longer it goes on and restarts between them.

Btw, the problem for me was that I had f.lux running and seems that causes issues. So check if you have some bluelight filter/night mode on your screen and disable it.
