Patch Notes - Version 1.1.0 (05/29/20)
GGPO Netcode Improvements
You may have heard the buzz about the recent update to the GGPO netcode in Skullgirls. After much internal testing and a highly successful (albeit brief) beta period, we're including that same tech (with some modifications to suit the particulars of our game, of course) into this mainline update for TFH. The best netcode just got even better.
In summary, this netcode upgrade creates a smoother, more consistent experience by greatly lessening the chance of frame and input drops online. We've also made several improvements to online sound effects which should prevent missing sounds during network hiccups and make sound doubleups far less frequent.
Frame delay recommendations and ping indicators (those green/red bars) have been made more generous to better reflect the impact the improvements have made.
Shoutouts to Hidden Variable Studios and Lab Zero for spearheading this update for the Z-Engine!
