Title: Slowed battle animations in RM2K when I hold Enter?
Post by: ReloadXPsi on February 01, 2012, 08:16:33 pm

So here's a little oddity.


Normally when I play an RM2K game I constantly hold the Enter button during battles to make the battle animations and messages go by quicker. However, for one or two games I have, holding Enter makes the battle animations slow down instead (gotta use Escape to speed 'em up instead, but holding that also pauses battle messages, so there's this annoying little thing of needing to alternate them just to make things go by quicker... picky I know but I'm an impatient man) and trying things like switching out one RPG_RT file for another doesn't seem to fix anything.


Does anyone have any idea how to fix this?

Frankly I don't see how holding the key down makes things go any faster; every time a key is hit a signal is sent to the computer, so holding down the button is essentially forcing it to continually process a signal; this may well contribute to the lag.
(Please feel free to correct me here if I'm wrong, anyone.)
Merely tapping the key often should still speed through the messages quite fast;also x usually has the same properties as enter, so you may want to use that. If this is really a problem, use Joytokey to map the controls to a controller that has a turbo option and use that.

I'd also suggest not playing in a midsize window, which can cause lag,; either the fullscreen or smallest don't.
