TROUBLESHOOT: Lag or Delay or Slowdown

VDASH-EMU is one of the most fastest virtual racing dash or “second screen”, if not the fastest available today.

LAG (or slowdown) is NOT NORMAL and you shouldn’t experience any LAG with VDASH-EMU even if you run 4 emulators simultaneously on your network LAN.

ATTENTION YOU MUST QUIT ALL VDASH-EMU WITHOUT A VALID LICENSE before running Ledsmaster.

if you do not have a valid license of your emulator running on your network, Ledsmaster will slowdown the update rate of all your devices and VDASH-EMU from 1ms to 2 seconds, so check carefully if you have all the licenses installed correctly before you complain about LAG or slowdown

– this is the first common error: to NOT HAVE a valid EMU license installed. *A FIRST THING TO CHECK*. Check with the Registration Information window, you must have a ‘+’ (plus) prefix on all software Licenses.

– 2nd common error: UDP PORT are not correctly configured. EACH VDASH-EMU MUST HAVE AN UNIQUE UDP Network Port, so please check the doc to run more than one EMU at the same time and setup the UDP Port correctly of all your VDASH-EMU.

– on the game side CPU is at around 100%: your graphics settings are to high for your PC or you most likely didn’t CAP the framerate (FPS) of the game which result in 100% of occupation CPU by the game and gives not enough CPU to run properly other apps. You MUST CAP your fps this should be among the first things to consider in sim-racing. We always recommend to CAP to 60fps first and then to increase this value progressively depending the power of your PC configuration. Check with your game documentation to see how to CAP the framerate (FPS)

– then last thing to check, your network/router, your wireless signal is weak. When you ping your wifi router from the wireless station (PC or Android) you should have a response in less 20ms.

In short, you should NOT have any delay/LAG/slowdown with VDASH-EMU if everything is correctly installed and configured. it must be super-responsive even with overcharged page with hundreds of objects.

REMINDER (AGAIN as this is important):
You must QUIT ALL VDASH-EMU Windows or Android WITHOUT a valid license BEFORE running Ledsmaster
