Hot hot hot

[ElToto]

I don't know if people who look into the program can explain
why Elma takes 100% of the processor. And if yes, does anybody
ever tried to solve that problem ?

speak of milagros for example....

thanks, it could save my computer of a Elma-burning dead.

If your computer isn't doing anything else while it's running elma, it's pretty natural that your cpu doesn't have to share it's resources so it will concentrate on elma 100%. It doesn't burn your processor don't worry.

That is, if the tempatures are in reasonable range of course...

[ElToto]

well...

in fact yes, it does. Cause if i open a program that look
at cpu speed & use and watch them as graphs, it appears
that Elma take the whole power of my computer, as if
i was running a powerful 3D-engine under Java VM.

Ctrl+Alt+del;
run Elma for few mn (not too hard, hu?)
and look at these graphs. you'll see

normal elma cruising makes my cpu hot from 50C to 75C, I find it very abnormal, anyone else has got the problem that Elma seems eating too much cpu power and producing much heat although tiny game it is?

[trew]

My elma takes 13% cpu when fullscreen and 9% when windowed.

it wil run as fast as pasible i guess if you dont limit the fps somehow, for exampel vsync

[pawq]

eol.exe eats around 50% of my CPU atm with some 700fps at 1680x1050 fullscreened (core2duo 2.66ghz). Dunnno about temp, ill check it

[anpdad]

eats 0-2% of mine, wtf is wrong with your pcs guys.

that's really low. fps?

oops, disregard that, i was looking at cpu load while eol window (i play windowed) was inactive. Tested normally now, and it appears eol loads up one core completely.

ye same here

Hot hot hot is my favourite level by Olliz. The greatest Levmaker in existence. Maybe Fuida second.

I don't know where to post this but, I notice that i cant turn Off VSYNC, when I do in eolfocnig I can still do vsync power tricks and U wonder why? Can someone tell me how it works trhis?

Just check your fps with fraps in vsync off case, and then we'll figure out what to do next)
