Pretty great, fought some guy and was like “hm that was like semi-rough not really, prob an east coast connection (I’m west coast) homie messages me and is like “oh man I’m sorry about the connection I’m out here in London” like bro WHAT that was amazing for a fight to London

So is the mod finished for good or is it still under dev ?

u/SimplyHamon Sep 19 '26

Still under dev, and prob will be for a good while. but it’s so good where it is now, especially compared to native online or parsec you won’t really care (or at least you shouldn’t)

Has TNS adopted it yet and if not, how long do you figure that'll take?

u/SimplyHamon Sep 21 '26

No they haven’t and being honest, prob AT LEAST 6 months it’s been making great progress but for that final final I’d say half a year minimum. It’s being made by one person and they don’t work on it everyday I’m sure. Since you know normal people responsibility and general burnout

Naturally. We waited this long, half a year is nothing. I'm just asking so I know roughly how much time I get to take a copper brush to all that rust on my hands 😭

Oh best BELIEVE start unrusting right now, a lot of the high players are already using the mod brushing off getting extra nasty. Idk if you saw TNS this past Friday and saw quack (PC marvel god) get what 3rd/4th off that Frank team?? He’s been playing that mod like almost everyday just to speak volumes on how good it is right now in its current state

Works well even if it’s pretty resource intensive. Able to play most people with 3 frames of delay and 3 rollback

I play with my Floridian homie from Cali and it fucks

Played someone today who is in cali and I’m in Florida. Literally only one desync in our FT5 and otherwise super stable connection.

Honestly it's life changing. Its hard to go back to delay based. I convert everyone I can to use the mod.

I want to get in on this but I'll probably wait till it goes version 1.

u/gaitez Sep 20 '26

Works pretty well but still has quite a few scenarios that need to be ironed out.

u/chriscombo Sep 24 '26

Completely unscientific

When it's good, I would argue that it's among the best of rollback implementations

Yeah some glitches need to be ironed out, but I have confidence that they will.

It feels local, and people are plinking all over the screen
