Cpu throttling in TGB

by Tony Saunders · in Torque Game Builder · 05/04/2008 (9:05 am) · 2 replies

When running TGB on windows XP, noticed that cpu would normally run at near on 100% in perfmon.

Does anyone know of a way to throttle back TGB on a high performance machine so that it runs at a much lower CPU level?

cheers

I suppose that's due to TGB's heritage. The editor is built directly on top of the game engine it is targeting and like any other game engine, Torque is not event-driven but rather just runs in a loop. To change that, you'd have to go in and implement a proper event-driven setup.

Ok thanks for the reply, but I think i'll pass on that!

Just wondered if there was an easy setting somewhere.
