The only things I have to say, and it's possible that is totally personal, is .... I prefer the characters as they were I think they were beautiful and simpler, but I liked everybody and maybe that's on me .... and last the game were laggy in certain parts before but now ... I don't have words to explain, but it's almost ... almost impossible to play, and I didn't even go out of the house, so I don't know if it's better or worst out there in the game ... in the builds before the worst place was the museum, now I don't want to imagine how it is there.
Thanks for trying the game. Your preference is what it is. I'm can't knock that. I liked the old models too. But I like the new ones as well. Thanks for reporting your experience, it reminded me that I need to optimize the maps. I learned that the "walking" feature is left on by default when creating a new event, well actually I knew that part already, and having this left on can cause lag if there are tons of events using it. The only events that need it are things that move and 95%-99% of the events on most maps are stationary and don't need it. I've never really worried about unchecking it because it's never been an issue for me but with people reporting lag in older versions I looked into it and found that out. I've not had much lag so it slipped my mind but I need to go through all my older/ported maps and make sure that feature is turned off for the events that don't need it. To put it in perspective, the main room in Dope's house has 111 events currently on it. Only 3 of those events move and thus need the "walking" feature checked. I'll have that sorted out by the next update.
That said... if you're lagging in Dope's house, what in the hell is going on with your PC? How old is that bad boy/girl? Your PC is probably older than me, ha. Your PC was probably going obsolete back when Mac's were called Macintosh's, ha. You gotta use dial up to connect to the internet, ha. Matter of fact, you're using AOL, ha. When you turn it on, your PC clicks so much that your neighbors think you're lighting fireworks in the house, ha. You had to get an external hard drive because your PC only supports floppy disks, ha. You gotta turn your PC on 2 hours before you actually plan to use it, ha. The game is in HD, but everything looks like it's in 4 bit to you, ha. Heh. I kid, I kid. Seriously though, even after optimizing the maps this game might be hard on your PC, especially the dungeon which I already optimized and it causes my own PC to lag. I wouldn't be surprised if you went there and your PC immediately caught on fire and exploded....
