Hi.
Unfortunately this is a work-in-progress, and we have only art for sequence 0 and 40% for sequence 1. The artist, Synthetic Rush, is hard at work creating more art.
I'm aware of the online version's slowness, but it also has the same number of images as the offline version. I need to look into how I can on a technical level speed up loading the images in the online version.
Oh, okay. I thought I was the only one with this problem, because I didn't notice the missing images messages and assumed it was an archive problem.
I'm not competent in such matters, but hypothetically speaking, to speed up the loading of images in the online version you could try:
1. different formats for images. As far as I know - WEBP format has better compression, low weight, so theoretically such an image can be displayed faster. 2. Are the images loaded via javascript? Perhaps there is a "bottleneck" in the code and the code can be optimized.
3. Are you using either a home server or a rented one. Maybe the problem is on the server side or the speed of reading files. Maybe you should use a server with an SSD (although probably in 2023 all servers use SSDs)
4. You could try loading all the pictures into the browser cache at once, while the intro is in progress. If the pictures are in Webp format and can be compressed to an acceptable quality, with current internet speeds I don't think it will be much of a problem.
Once again, I remind you that I am not a specialist, I am just using some general knowledge, so I apologize if my advice looks naive and stupid.
