Abstract

This paper proposes an adaptive Δ-causality control scheme with adaptive dead-reckoning to preserve the consistency among players and the causality for networked games. The proposed scheme carries out adaptive Δ-causality control and adaptive dead-reckoning together. By simulation, we make a performance comparison among nine schemes including the scheme for a networked racing game. We also investigate the influence of the maximum value of Δ of the scheme on the interactivity by subjective assessment. As a result, we illustrate that the scheme is superior to the other schemes in terms of the consistency among players. Also, we show that if the maximum value of Δ is less than about 100 ms, the influence of the value on the interactivity is small.
