Yeah, the new update has some cool stuff! I am excited about the Eltrya hang gliders, among other features. I still have no idea how long it will be until those are in the official stable release. By the way, I recently found my first Mesa Biome. Good lord that took me a long time! I added a new tel...

"So perhaps now we can guess what killed poor old Gerard de l'Automne and his friends.... they messed with Giant Dire Vampire Bear Cubs..."

Rob feels surprisingly little urge to avenge his friend's death. He was a decent guy... but really

Rob remembers that you aren't supposed to run from bears, you are supposed to play dead... but that is probably for normal bears, and not Giant Dire Vampire Bears. He gets Stumpy ready to flee, and holds his hand ready to help either Rachelle or Harvey (but not both) into the saddle with him, but h...

Rob shields his eyes from the morning sun, and looks to the shadows where Harvey is pointing.

"If you can catch him alive, I can get some answers out of him." Rob says confidently

Dang! That looks great, Fenrir! Which game is this? @Kylekrack: I found <a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/GIMP/comments/19bude/help_gimp_28_on_the_mac_is_rather_laggy/">this post</a> from someone suffering the same problem. Apparently this is a known bug with Gimp on Mac. Supposedly the wo...

You should open up the Task Manager, and look at the CPU performance charts.

Leave it open while you work in the gimp, and see if your CPU usage is spiking really high while you draw.

Are you on Windows or something else?

"Well, on second though. There is a lot of blood around. Vampires have a reputation for taking the blood with them, not leaving it behind, so maybe I am wrong." "I know giving these poor souls a proper burial will slow us down more than we would like, but maybe we can throw together ...

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?

Rob extracts a small battered lute from his bag, and picks out a tune on it. "Poor Gerard de l'Automne, what was he doing yesterday? What was his quest? Where did he hark? On what adventure did he embark? With magic glaive, and twanging lyre, Did he set out to slay vampire? Was he wandring wit...

"Oh, so you think that wasn't really Jehan that we killed back there?..." But Havey is hunting already. Rob follows cautiously. He wants to give Harvey space to track the bloody trail without feeling crowded, but to keep close enough by that he can help if needed. Even if the assassin's g...

"I'll take one of the healing potions, if you don't mind." says Rob, looking at the loot that Harvey is pocketing. "And I think Lynda could make good use of that necklace of fireballs from her flying vantage point" "As for Luc de Chaudronnier, let's not get our hearts set o...

Re: ADS!

So, I just noticed the Bob the hamster ad for dropbox. Pretty funny. So far only 5 people have clicked it, and not a single one has completed account creation far enough to get my my referral space :P <a href="https://db.tt/KhIXzGLd"><img src="https://i.imgur.com/5PVwHcD.gif"></...

Ah, very interesting. That means that the probelm was with the DirectX backend. When you renamed that file, it caused the engine to fall back to the SDL backend I am curious if you have seen similar problems with other games that use DIrectX? Does the dxdiag program work okay on your computer? (Star...
