Introduction

Most of the issues that are encountered can be found on the Issue Tracker. There are a few that many people ask about, so you can see those here.

Excessive Framerate / FPS

To anyone who's having a problem with too many frames per second being rendered, make sure the "FPS Limiter" is set to "On" in the Advanced Menu under "Display Settings".

Won't Fix

NOTE Our Issues Tracker contains both enhancement requests, bugs and known issues. Have a look! This list shows 'problems' that will not be fixed.

Guitar solos require an unbroken streak to get a 100% - even if you overstrum and hit all the notes, your guitar solo will be forced down to 99.0%. It's like this for a reason, and will probably not be fixed.
Scores are handicapped. This is in order to maintain some manner of parity across the wide variety of settings for people who upload their scores. Perhaps at some point a feature to better do this will be implemented, but until that time, this is how it is going to be.

About Variable/Speed-dependent Hitwindow

Set the hitwindow to tight and tweak the A/V-Delay so it's right when you hit the notes when listening to the music. This is now easy with the new Accuracy indicator. Remember that the correct A/V-Delay is different on every computer depending on system hardware and audio and video settings.

Unconfirmed Bug Reports

NOTE We have not been able to reproduce any of these, so to us, these bugs do not exist.
