All I know is that Renpy animations played well on my old computer before Renpy 8 ... when 8 started being introduced, those same animations suddenly became lag quagmires. And LoF froze completely trying to play the post-credit u4ia trailer.

When my computer then started showing signs due to recent power outages that it wasn't long for this world, I decided it was time for an upgrade, and now no more lagging.

Now, that could be the GPU, or the new processor, since they both got upgraded at the same time. But the new GPU definitely is helping with my non-Renpy games.

I struggled to get through all the animations at first. Getting the compressed version of the game helped with the processing and my sanity for a while. I just wish LOF could've stuck to RenPy 7. Especially when there are games like Summers Gone in which the renders where beyond words and my crapbook handled them just fine.

Jesus, guys. If I told you how long it took for me to even get 1 GB in a PC you'd probably wonder why my bones weren't dust already.

Between my two desktop boxes I'm probably sitting on 15TB now, with another few in the media server. I never even dreamed of this kind of storage space back in my BBS days, where the rich folk had a few CD drives for their mass archive storage. The concept of VNs alone (and their image quality) would have absolutely blown minds.

Yeah.. I'm just gonna have to go ahead and disagree with you there, but as long as you're happy with that delusion that's fine.

No worries. I completely understand why most will either be more attracted to a character such as Holy or Lexi.
But in my case, Cece's character hits really close to home.

Yeah, Tandy's didn't have very much in the way of hard drive space. :ROFLMAO:

I think you need to be clearer in your statement, because I immediately thought of Jessica Tandy, then hard drive space, then got to wonder just how well hung is Morgan Freeman anyway, and it only went downhill from there. Then I checked the quoted segment and realized you were talking about a computer. You caused me mental anguish man... :oops:

well today games are released half finished and after installation needs to dl gigs of updates (hrs or days of dling) which make game more playable and repeat it for next couple months (year+).

If you mean me, I never referred to a Tandy at all. I was into computers before they really came on the scene.

lol Figures.
I started C & Pascal programing classes in 6th or 7th grade back in "81 I believe it was (give or take a yr). If I recall was on a Apple IIe or was it Apple III. And who doesn't have a story of messing with the teachers' test program on discs. I used to have all my old hardware as well, until a flood dealt with them. All those old 6" floppies gone. :/

Lesson learned to never keep your old nostalgic hardware in the basement. lol

Ya, our C64 had one too... and before that our Vic20.

oh god yeh forgot about those. And while we're at it, I remember the following Commodore 128. where if you wanted to switch to C64 all you had to do was type in the console "goto C64 + Enter" and the entire interface would switch over to a C64.

Poke and Peek.. omg, the basic language. I spent WAYYYY too much time on those things. :ROFLMAO:
