momentarily pause when it loads a config or sprite

Post by reese »

Troubleshooting reads: "Unexpected disk access can result in an unsightly visual stutter ... G-Force uses a cache look-ahead to prevent this (causing the file to be asynchronously read-in about a second before its needed), leaving only manual user actions able to cause I/O stutters."

I, for one, would not mind a delay of start, when manually activating a sprite, if that would fix the stutter.

Utilizing video sprites really brings GForce into the realm of the "best of" in the arena of VJ software, however this stutter, is like a stumble at the gate.

More manual control of sprites (position, rotation, inversion, cloning, etc.) along with flowfield modification of sprites, would blow Arkaos out of the water.

Cheers, and keep up the good work!
