Title: Draw function problem.
Post by: Wuwus1 on September 14, 2017, 08:22:45 pm

First im sorry for my english i know it's not very good but let's go to the topic. I was writing my new game and one day i was trying to start it on my sister's pc. The game was very slow and cpu usage went up to 30% on this particular app. The next day i brought it to school and the same happened cpu usage was very high and the game was slow. I was thinking what is causing that problem and i disable the overloaded draw function for the background and it worked, the cpu usage was now 6%, then i disable the overloaded draw function for the player sprite and the cpu usage went down to 0.2%. I noticed one more thing https://imgur.com/H1PEx24. By the way on my own pc the game is fine the cpu usage is 0,1%. Ps i used the Window.setFramerateLimit(60) function.

The error message already gives it away:

The current OpenGL implementation is not hardware-accelerated.

Your sister's PC and the PC in your school have no OpenGL driver installed, so you get a software renderer which is really slow.

You can, you just need to install a GPU driver.
