So, I think I got backwards-deck. I play Rocket League, so input lag is a big deal for me there. However, the issue I have seems opposite of what I see online:
- Using deck controls has noticeable lag
- Using a wired X-Box controller has noticeable lag
- Using a Bluetooth X-Box controller works pretty good
Can anyone think of why I would have such bad lag on the built-in controls?
EDIT So this might be display, not input lag!
- Set Gamescope Disable FPS Limiter On
- Set Gamescope Allow Tearing On
- Set Rocket League Vsync Off
- Set Rocket League FPS to 144
The deck works a lot harder, and fans go crazy, but it’s playable without an external monitor now. I think in limiting to the didplay’s 60hz, the Deck must be doing something else causing display lag.
So, this got me thinking. I turned off thr FPS limiter and allowed Tearing in Gamescope. Turned off Vsync and set FPS limiter to 144 in Rocket League. Lo and behold, playable. I think this lay have more to do with the display than the controls.
