I've even reduced the size of my maps, and the game loop just crawls. Can anyone by any chance lend me a hand to figure out what the cause is? I don't even know where to start.
Unsure, tbh. I use the same system in FPO and no problem.

Perhaps try switching to system memory?

I know what you mean Asrrin. I experience the same problem every time I try to use the tutorial. It's strange though, because Perfekts game had scrolling, and it was fine.
What aren't you telling us? 8)

I have scrolling maps working well in my game. I get about 500 - 600 fps too. I used the same tutorial.

I added the system to a blank MSE a looong time back and it worked perfectly.

Did you add advanced ai?

Aggro? They already have that.

Ah. True Aggro. So if the mage hits it for more damage than the fighter, it will transfer targets. ^_^ Rohan has that.
