Renpy Performance Warning

I had this same issue. An easy fix (that works most of the time) is to download Renpy -> put the game in renpy's folder -> launch the game from within the renpy launcher.

I don't know why this works. To me, it makes no sense. But whatever. The PC I use for these games is over a decade old and doesn't even have a real GPU. So if this thing can play games, anything else should be able to.

Another thing I've noticed is the newer versions of games that use the newer 7.4.X renpy work without this method. However, the older versions (like the game you attemped) do not.

Again, it doesn't make sense. But it's true.
Hey sorry it took so long to reply to my topic despite all the advice given. So yea I tried jamdan's fix and downloaded renpy 7.4.11-sdk and I get the same error I do when I try to start renpy games.

I'm going to try anne O'nymous solution next... hopefully I do this right I'm really not good with computers.

Well thanks I guess this was the most hostile 'help' I've ever gotten. I could nitpick what you said to me but I'm not on the internet for drama when I have enough of that. I'll just wait until someone else posts confirming that my computer's too shitty to play these games when the 12 year old computer I was using can play these games just fine.

I guess as a specific question does anyone know how to update GPU/video cards? I keep on coming across that in various websites but do they mean I can update it online or I have to phiscally install a new GPU/video card?
This was my reply 2 weeks ago to another person with the same version of Windows 10:


Thanks, Flecc, for those direct links.
tienes la de intel? la mia es de 256 mb integrada.

Just upgrade drivers for your existing video card , Intel should update through win update if any new driver available . Have put links in for Nvida and AMD GPU's

Nvidia Drivers

Amd / Ati Drivers

Good luck
Thank you for this. I was running into the same issue and thought I had the most up to date drivers for my video card. It turns out I was wrong, so this was helpful.
