Why when the TGEA runs, the cpu is at 100% almost all the time?

#1 Stephen might chime in here but I think this is expected. Basically TGEA will drive the CPU as hard as it can while it is running. That way people with super computers can get those 100+ FPS rates that they love to have.

#2 Mark is correct--it's not that TGE-A is requiring everything your cpu can handle, but it's saying "hey, I'm a game, and my user wants as much performance as possible, so cpu, gimmie all you got!"

#3 Is there a way to limit it? i would like to cap my game at 30 fps, if that would put less strain on the system.

#4 I understand , thank you very much!

#5 @Will - Just put a simple frame limiter in your code... check how much time has elapsed between frames... if it is less than 30 milliseconds... use Platform::Sleep() to sleep off the rest of the time. Platform::Sleep() isn't accurate, but it works good enough for a frame limiter most times. TGB has a frame rate limited as well if you want to copy them.

#6 Thank you, I will try it.
