Why is my game so slow!?

[Muraiko]

I have two computers at my house, a laptop, which is where I work on my game from, and a PC, which I put my files in for back up, in case something happens to my other computer. Now, when I test play my game on my laptop, it seems to run just fine. But, whenever I try it out on my other computer, its so slow! It freezes about every two seconds! I know that I have, like, hundreds of common events running at once in my game, so that could be the reason why, but it doesn't explain why it runs smoothly on my laptop. Is it because my other computer is an older make? How can I make sure that my game runs fine on other computers, and is there anything I can do to help it go faster?

give the game out in a demo (I have about 30+ common events) and let them see if it's slow
If it run's slow on there's try combining common event's on finding efficenter ways to create things!

RM games tend to rely on Graphics cards for their main source of power. Chances are your laptop is running a better card. For example, most halfway decent games lagged like hell on my old 8 meg GFX card, but on my new 64 meg one, its super smooth. If your wondering how to reduce lag, try throwing a few Wait 0.1 seconds into your more complicated events.

Oh... uh... I really don't know how...

Sorry, but I haven't really "shown off" my game or anything before, so I'm still kinda new to this stuff. I AM planning to do so real soon, like, maybe on next monday or something. So I'd really like it if you could tell me how to submit a demo or something. Please?

I just counted! I have 53 common events running all at once! Is that too much?

To upload a demo, Compress your game's folder with a program like winzip, then upload it to a file hosting service like Megaupload or Savefile. The sites will give you a link which you and anyone else can download your game.

Alright. Thanks. But, it's getting kinda late right now, so... I think I'll just do all the demo stuff on monday, when I show it to everyone for the very first time!

By the way, thanks for the idea of using the whole "wait: 0.1" command. I think I did use that, but I don't know if I did it for ALL of my events. I'll go check it all out right now. Thanks everyone!

Wait until you see my game on Monday! I hope people will like it! I've put so much work into it for the past two years, so I really hope it turns out well!
