I noticed when I made an EXE file of my current project (Chamber) it runs at about half the framerate that it does if I just run the layout from within Construct. Is this normal? I have never noticed it before...

Yeah I left it at default settings, so it should be fine? It's only on Chamber that it's happening, but I haven't tried to rebild EXEs for anything else yet.

I'm gonna try it on my other PC later and see if the problem is still there.

It's weird though because if I run it through Construct it's fine, but if I build the EXE and run it, the framerate is bad.

Have you sent the EXE to someone else to see what happens?

I just figured out what was causing it... stupid Dreamscape. As soon as I paused the Dreamscene it started running 3x better. LOL idiot.

I am able to quote myself for this one! Although search failed to find me the post

"Dreamscene is the devil."

It's so true it hurts!

Whats dreamscape/dreamscene?

Besides "the devil," it is a Vista Ultimate feature for animated desktop wallpapers (just a movie file that plays fullscreen).

It only affects things on the laptop... if your computer is good enough it won't phase anything. Besides, it's meant to auto-pause itself when you run a 3D accelerated app... but for some reason it decided it wanted to keep playing.

Has some nice effects though... worth checking out for the wow factor at least.

And be cenzored by every Icon on your Desktop! (well in my case it would), unless you disable "Show icons on desktop".
