TX2D Trial's Built Executable Runs Very Slowly

by Nicholas Walstrom · in Torque X 2D · 05/27/2009 (4:18 pm) · 2 replies

When I build a file and run it, it seems to run way, way more slowly than it should. Is this a strange trial limitation that will not be present if I buy the program, or is it something that will remain a problem once I've purchased it? I have a top of the line Alienware Area-51 computer, so it seems weird for a simple 2D program I've created from a tutorial to run so slowly.

Try changing the SimulateFences option to your torquesettings.xml file.

You can find an example here: http://www.garagegames.com/community/forums/viewthread/80166

@Lucas: Wow, thanks Lucas, that worked!

I too am working with the trial version of Torque X 2D and I am considering purchasing it.

But how did you know to do this? Where is SimulateFences documented?

Is there a way to make the object being controlled by a movement component move faster in response to keyboard/gamepad input?
