Performance hit on first conversation

[ramboaslak]

Hey!

I'm using Dialogue System with Adventure Creator in my current project. I have a weird issue regarding performance: The first conversation freezes the game for a short while, but all the subsequent conversations run just fine. I have selected "preload all resources" and "warm up conversation controller". This is not a huge deal as it happens only on the first conversation, but it would be nice to figure out what's happening. Any idea what might cause this? I don't have conditions on nodes.

Hi,

Try setting Warm Up Conversation Controller to Extra. If that doesn't do the trick, you may need to run the Profiler.

Hey, thanks for an extremely quick response! I tried setting the Warm Up Conversation Controller to "Extra", but that resulted in the issue I previously had, where text cuts away in the bottom: https://www.pixelcrushers.com/phpbb/vie ... f=3&t=7180.

The performance is better, but the text cutting away is a weird side effect of this.

Let's see if we can fix that text cutaway issue then. I'll reply in that thread.
