| 02:27.56 | the_map | there are two options for energy saver, fps limit and vertical sync |
| 02:28.05 | the_map | what does vertical sync do? |
| 02:53.51 | Delusional | Iâm guessing, V-sync keeps the frame rate the same as the refresh rate fo your monitor. |
| 02:54.38 | Delusional | or maybe slowe |

| 10:52.27 | blast007 | the_map: vertical sync is a graphics rendering option that actually syncs frame drawing to the refresh rate of the screen (which eliminates 'tearing', which is when parts of multiple frames are drawn to the screen, resulting in part of the image having a different viewpoint, and thus tears in the image) |
| 10:53.42 | blast007 | so if your refresh rate is 60hz, you'll get at most 60 FPS. But if your FPS drops below 60, it will go all the way down to 30. If it drops below 30, it will drop to 15. AFAIK... |

| 11:31.35 | blast007 | there are some other adaptive sync technologies out there now (nVidia's proprietary G-Sync and AMD's FreeSync, which is instead based on a VESA standard), but I think they require new screens that specifically support them, and I'm not sure if they require specifically coding support for them into the game |

| 18:01.32 | blast007 | I believe I've solved the DPI issue on Windows. BZFlag will just report that it's DPI-aware, and then Windows will stop trying to help with scaling. |
| 18:02.32 | blast007 | Now I'm trying to figure out why connections to the MOTD and list server take a long time (10 to 15 seconds) on my Windows 8.1 system. |
| 18:24.09 | blast007 | ah, might be IPv6 related. Ran a wireshark, and for the MOTD it first tries to resolve 'bzflag.org' to an IPv6 address, and then ~18 seconds later to resolve to IPv4, and then about 250ms later it connects via IPv4 to the MOTD. |
| 18:28.14 | blast007 | Doesn't do it for 2.4.2 on the same machine, so it might be something with the newer c-ares or how I'm building it. |

| 22:00.00 | blast007 | might have been that our libcurl didn't have IPv6 support enabled in the past |

| 22:46.08 | Constitution | not sure if it's a related issue... it always seems to work when I try it again |
