speed

Hi guys,

I just have a question about the speed of AGS. I am looking for an adventure creation tool to learn and AGS looks great. I have however read numerous comments that AGS is very slow.

All I wanted to know if this is an issue with todays computers or let's say with computers in 6 months time. I am planning on using 640 x 480 graphics with 32 bit anti-aliased sprites.

Also doens anyone know what the licencing issues applying to commercial games are?

Thank you very much for any feedback

AGS games run just fine on modern day machines. And if the 32-bit colour is too much for someone's graphics card, they can always use the setup option to downgrade to 16-bit colour. This is not the hoped case anyhow. This is why the setup is present, to let people with lower spec machines to run hi-spec games. However, I see the case is that if it's not strictly neccesary to use cpu-consuming features, I'd avoid it.
