We can close this. The poor responsiveness was due to the analog not picking up angles others than 8 directions, so platforming felt unresponsive because I couldn't fine tune my movement. Collective facepalm. Thanks again for the help!

Hey, just getting the chance to check in now. There's a ton of info here, and I can't say it all makes sense to me, but I appreciate it nonetheless haha. I gave the Ares emulator a try, and while I felt that the video quality was a noticeably worse than the others and the frame rate was slower than I seemed right, it did at least seem responsive. Does this mean, then, that the issue lies with the emulators I've been using? Are there options available to me where I'd be able to fix them? Naturally I'd like to have the clean image and no input lag. Side note, I loathe P64 and tried it only out of desperation/necessity to compare 😄

Hey everyone, hoping to find some help here. I've scoured the internet and found little to help with this problem. I recently downloaded Bizhawk 2.8 so I could play Ocarina of Time randomizer, but I found that my movement was not at all as responsive as I was used to. I turned on the "Display Lag Counter" option (which I assume is the latency) and it showed 82ms. I've run this many times in the past without a problem, so I know it isn't "just me" or something I need to get used to, but I have completely wiped/reset my computer since then. Troubleshooting info
  • I have input lag while playing on Bizhawk 2.8, Bizhawk 2.3.1 (copy-pasted from former laptop), Project 64, and Modloader64
  • I don't understand all that well how "cores" relate to Bizhawk, but I believe the N64 emulator is actually Mupen64plus running through Bizhawk?
  • I have input lag while playing Ocarina of Time and Super Mario 64 (I haven't tried any other games) *I DO NOT have input lag while playing emulators for other consoles. I tried Super Mario Sunshine on Dolphin and it was very responsive
  • I'm using a DualShock 4 controller. I have tried this connecting directly via bluetooth and using DS4Windows
  • Laptop info: Acer Predator Helios 300 Gaming Laptop, Intel i7-10750H, NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2060 6GB, 15.6" Full HD 144Hz 3ms IPS Display, 16GB Dual-Channel DDR4, 512GB NVMe SSD, Wi-Fi 6, RGB Keyboard, PH315-53-72XD
  • I'm running the emulator from a partitioned internal SSD (D: drive), but I had the same problem after trying to copy to C: and run from there
Any help in resolving this would be incredibly appreciated!
