    I've noticed that I've been missing dash forwards (walk occurs instead) equally as often as dashbacks on the new UCF, and I have two possible theories -- assuming I'm not crazy. Please at least consider that what I'm saying might be true. 1. With a character like Sheik, because you want to "flick" the stick rather than "holding out" the input when you dashdance in order to perform her foxtrot dashdance without entering run, I've experienced issues that many other players wouldn't have happen to them, and maybe the new UCF has changed this from the previous version in some way, or that the 1.0 "clamping" code has messed with this in some way 2. The 1f buffer for executing a dash out of lag has possibly been removed or compromised in some way. I've been entering walk very often especially when trying to act out of lag, and it's possible that my previous muscle memory is producing different results. I've experienced this dashing issue on Dolphin and CRT with 0.84, and with the input integrity adapter I've ensured that visually my netplay setup's latency is extremely close to that of a CRT setup (within 2ms). I've also used various controllers (PhobGCC, OEM), with different stickbox springs in new-condition stickboxes as well as ensured the health of their potentiometers (for the PhobGCC, replicated the waveforms to that of a healthy OEM), yet still have had issues dashing. Some other various things I've felt have been off: Shielddropping, especially when using the buffer for doing so, seems to cause a spotdodge instead, especially when done out of shieldstun. Several other top players (Zain, Ginger, Krudo) have corroborated this, but obviously it's just our opinion. When trying to shield tilt, I've found that I've been rolling instead. Perhaps the old version of UCF made it easier to do so, and I've developed muscle memory according to that. Even if all of this is placebo and I'm completely wrong about everything, I would say it is extremely unwise and downright rude to enforce and switch to a new software right before the biggest tournament of the year, and have Slippi Dolphin adopt it only 2(?) days before said event. Even at Mango's Genesis bootcamp, all of the setups except the main stream setup were on UCF 0.8, not 0.84. Everyone has been practicing on a different game. Changing the game right before the biggest tournament in the world is extremely rude in my opinion. I know 0.84 was said to have been beta tested by the public at regional events for the past year, but let's be real -- 99% of players would not think to blame the software if they missed a few things. I also am the world's most-traveled Melee player. I went to ~30 tournaments all across the world in 2023, and all of them used UCF 0.8, not 0.84.

    Nice vid! Technically, controllers send unsigned bytes for stick values, which are converted to signed ingame. I.e. values from 0 - 255, 128 corresponding to signed 0 ingame (if controller is exactly center calibrated).

  • @CarloVaccariPlus
    @CarloVaccariPlus 5 месяцев назад

    To be more precise, a barely-missed dashback doesn't give a slow turnaround, it gives a few frames of slow turnaround and then dash. It's harder to see but still very impactful.

    I appreciate the proof that 0.84 dashbacks are working as intended via the stated definition, but I slightly disagree with your methodology. Imo you should have included a tournament using a prior version of UCF in the testing as an additional (and granted, redundant) control. Additionally, the claim by people seems to be that "0.84 dashbacks are giving slow turnarounds more often than older versions." In my opinion, the best way to falsify this statement would be by comparing the rate of slow turnarounds rather than successful dashbacks. It's possible an older version may have been giving dashbacks when it should have been giving turnarounds. I'd be interested in seeing someone break down how many slow turnarounds happened in this same recent 0.84 major, listing what 3-frame series of analog inputs led to that, searching for those same permutations in an older major, and comparing the outputs. Love the work you do! Stay hydrated!

    • @Peikotus91
      @Peikotus91 5 месяцев назад

      @@TylerClibbon Yeah... no it is very much not the same for humans. Our perception does not work that way, we don't see frames of the game, we observe a dynamic moving scene. Theres really nothing we in the game to give us hints about the internal frame switches (for polling). The game is not a 3600 bpm metronome we could just tune into the beat to acknowledge frames switching. Hitting dash back consistently simply is not a skill game for humans, its entirely luck based, and some controllers with defect give them for free. I fail to see the "hype" Also dash backs are not your traditional "1 frame" or "frame perfect" inputs; it would be a half frame perfect(orders of magnitude harder than frame perfect), IF there was a way for you to try time it. Now, actual "frame perfect" inputs do have a place in the competitive Melee, and I can see how they can be seen as "hype". That is techiques like grounded double shine etc. The key difference is that the "frame perfect" techniques that can be consistently executed are input sequence based, where you initiate the starting point, and then have to time the sequence correctly accordingly. For instance when you double shine, the jump input from the first shine determines when exactly you have to press b for the 2nd shine. And in this case *it does not matter* how the initial jump aligns with polling or ingame frames, as long as the time elapsed between the jump button press and the 2nd b input is close to perfect. And the better the timing, the more often you succeed. The timing, motion to press one button after another with correct time interval inbetween IS something we can teach ourselves. Our muscle memory is quite powerful. Btw, following your own argument, we ought not fix polling drift. We can easily make bot adjust timings to perform perfectly with polling drift, drift is not an issue at all for bot play now. If you were capable of pinpointing the exact moments frames changes and time accordingly, you could also easily adjust to the lag jumps that happen due to drift. Simplified, polling drift causes video lag to change abruptly every 8.33 seconds, by +-8.33ms, depending on the cycle point, in "entirely predicatble" consistent pattern. Polling drift is only a minor issue for "frame perfect" techniques. For instance, double shining perfectly is more consistent on console with polling drift than it is playing on pc with 1000hz overclocked OEM adapter with fixed polling drift. Only the once in 8.33 seconds lag shift frames are issue for input sequences.

      @@Peikotus91 Seems like you don't understand, I'm not saying humans can percieve sub frame timings, only 60 fps. There are plenty of ways to get locked into the frame rate mentally without being mid action and relying on muscle memory/practiced timings: you can look at the other characters animations, the background, your idle animation etc. You saying it's not humanly possible doesn't make it true. Tons of people were hitting dashback consistently before UCF. The controller issue I'm more sympathetic to but I would rather we get rid of the malfunction(that allows free dashbacks on some rare controllers) with UCF than make all controllers have that malfunction, I think dashback being hard is a cool part of the game.

    • @Peikotus91
      @Peikotus91 5 месяцев назад

      ​@@TylerClibbon "Seems like you don't understand, I'm not saying humans can percieve sub frame timings, only 60 fps." Well i certainly do not understand your point here. Human perception doesn't have any kind of fps. You're not seeing "only 60 fps". Meanwhile, to be consistent with dash back would *require* you to have very precise sub frame timings, since the entire rise time (5 - 8 ms) has to not contain a polling instance. How do you look at animation or background and somehow derive when polls happen from that? It's a very farfetched assumption to make. "You saying it's not humanly possible doesn't make it true. Tons of people were hitting dashback consistently before UCF." Nor is what you say backed by any evidence. And no, to our knowledge people definitely were not hitting (nonbuffered) dashback consistently before UCF on "properly" functioning controllers. Some claims of such were made, but video evidence was points very very hard toward the opposite, as does common sense. For instance, a top player claimed they can hit dash backs consistently on new controller with no PODE. So I asked them a tournament they used a new controller at where they thought they dash backed well. Not very surprisingly, they hit ~60% rate on dash backs in the match i went over. "I think dashback being hard is a cool part of the game." Well it could be cool if it was hard. But it is not hard, it simply requires luck.

    Does the physical "wiggle room" of a controller have any impact on the games deadzone? I thought it was purely a mechanical degradation in the stickbox. Isn't the distance from the center, as read by the potentiometers, still the only thing that affects the deadzone? If you used brand new potentiometers with a loose stickbox it would still have no pode and worst vanilla dash back right?

      what makes you think slow turnaround is intended and 1 frame dashback is the bug? I would argue starting a slow turn around animation (that's also when you tilt the stick slowly) then cancelling it after a few frames into a dash is the more strange and buggy outcome than just dashing backwards on the frame you input it like dashing forward
