post=107940The few times the US tried to use the metric system, there was hell to pay. Often in ridiculous ways to merit the trouble not worth it.
I'll start saying zee when you start using kilometers and kilograms and litres.

RMVX and you
post=107250post=107248Biggest difference is if the party comes in three or four. If there are four party members it is almost always extremely slow.
At least on the whole "slow ATB bar" thing, that's to do with the user inputting values for AGI which are too far different between the combatants and/or fellow party members; larger the difference the slower and/or faster the ATB bar. I personally never found the ATB bar to be a nuisance.
I never found that to be an issue for me, let alone have it happen.
Maybe it's the way I use the AGI stat, but having played games where the ATB bar was extremely slow/fast and/or had weird AGI to compensate, I've more or less come to the conclusion the majority of ATB problems lie with the user misunderstanding how AGI influences the ATB bar, rather than the RM2K3 DBS.

I agree that RM2K3's battle system has other legitimately annoying problems, though. The horrible method of counting turns is but one thing I never really understood why it was done in such a way.

post=107234If only that were the case.post=107232I'd say its a case of shitty PC, not shitty code.
Personally, I stick to using RM2K(3) and playing games with those engines because both RMXP and RMVX perform like ass on a computer that supposedly adequately meets its system requirements. Shitty code? Totally, Enterbrain.
I might try and get into RMXP and RMVX if I upgrade to a machine with a dual core CPU, 4 gigs of RAM, and a great video card. I'm not upgrading just for RPG Maker, though.
And for those with a bad sense of humor, the second paragraph is sarcasm aimed at aforementioned shitty code.
As it stands though, I have a machine with Pentium 4 2.66GHz CPU, 512MB DDR RAM, and a GeForce 6200 PCI video card and both XP and VX run like crap. There was also no performance increase when upgrading from my old machine which had a Pentium 3 966MHz, 512MB of RAM, and an ATI Radeon 7000.
The apparent lack of hardware rendering support (Software rendering? What age do we live in?) in the code of XP and VX eliminates the video card from the equation, and the extreme upscaling in the CPU obviously did nothing to alleviate the problem even though the CPU should be the bottleneck assuming software rendering is used. RAM could possibly be an issue, but if XP and VX require 1GB+ RAM to just run without choking, I'd say that's a case of terrible code and bloat.

I've read this topic halfway and it's given me a god damn headache and lots of lulz. Christian zealots (aka: retards) like AFD are the reason religious followers get a bad name.
On the topic of religion: I daresay I hold Gundams in higher regard than Jesus or whatever other freaking god you tell me to believe (though I do like those Roman/Greek, Norse, and Japanese gods as storytellers; they have some great myths/stories to read up on), so fuck the concept of a higher being or of heaven and hell.
I'll live my life with cookies in one hand and beer in the other and say "fuck that was great" when I die. I got better things to care about than the afterlife.
