I'm on a Mac. That could easily contribute.

EDIT: The task manager spikes a bit, especially if I use a large brush size.

The version of Gimp that I use (2.8.10) has support for both pressure sensitivity and pen tilt. The settings for this are in Edit->Input Devices I don't know about the lag. Do you see the lag with the mouse also? I am now noticing those features. Perhaps I am simply not perceptive. And yes the lag ...

The tablet I have is pretty basic, I don't think it has pressure functionality, although it might. I've recently downgraded from Photoshop Elements to GIMP, which I don't believe has pressure or tilt. If it does I haven't discovered how to access it. I'm not as worried about that as much as I am abo...

Yeah I drew it in GIMP with a Wacom tablet.

And some weird art I've been working on, sort of Giger inspired: It's quite bizarre but I can't say that's a bad thing. It certainly looks cool. If you work more on them, definitely post them here. I'd love to see it. Also, this isn't game related, but I made this and I don't have a lot of friends,...

I just think it's impressive. How many pages are there now? Like 250something? That thread is prolific, man.

I can get behind this. I'm a bit rusty, but I'm always willing to get back in to the game. The only good things I've ever produced came from collaboration. I primarily serve as an artist and a writer. I'm more inclined to the "high fantasy" type RPGs, but I'm somewhat flexible. In terms o...

I am finally feeling settled into my new home and new job. Now I have the time to set aside for a project, and if anyone would like to join me, I'd love to collaborate on a game with anyone who has time. Just so you don't have to feel like you're jumping into something blind, I do have a few ideas o...

No smoothing is best smoothing. I don't know, the smoothing used in that last screenshot (I've seen it before although I don't know what it's called) could be used to make an interesting art style if you used it in the right way. Don't get me wrong, I've seen it totally mess up perfectly good pixel...

Is it exactly 3 times until the enemy disappears or "about" 3 times? That would make a difference.

You might need to set a tag when the text box is used the first time, then have the NPC only appear if the tag is off.

I didn't discover the ohr until 2011, so I'm kind of a noob, but I still have the first projects I ever worked on. There's a reason I gave up on this game, but it's actually much longer than I remember it being.

So this is one of the first games I ever started making on the ohr (2011). It's based on a game a friend and I drew in a notebook. After I had become more familiar with the ohr, I decided I should try to revamp the game a little bit, since it was lacking severely. I then realized it was a lost cause...

Ah ok. I do believe I've experienced that on a smaller scale. String IDs can be hard to manage. Maybe it would be easier to refer to them by globals or constants instead of numerical values.... I hope I get to see the day when HS supports polymorphism, along with the [s]million[/s] billion other thi...

I believe select menu item sorts from 1 instead of 0. I can't find where I read that or if that's true, but I'm fairly certain it is because to that extent, it works. I may have tried using i instead of i -- 1 initially, but I can't remember. Now with the menu item slot added in, you're right, the o...

I've got a script that brings down a menu tab to select other submenus. It works for the most part, except that after the first time the menu is used, the set sprite palette function stops working. The first time you open the menu, the icon will change palettes to show that it is selected according ...
