Updated computer and the Display Got Weird... [SOLVED]

#1 Post by ArizaLuca »

Before I updated my Mac, the games were running fine when I was testing them. Now they lag. I don't know why; I'm on version 10.14.6 on my Mac. Does anyone have... any idea what's going on? I've been doing my best to fix the renderer, but nothing. I also updated the actual Ren'Py version as well. I genuinely can't test the games anymore because I can't tell if the animations are working as intended.

That is strange. I'm not a mac user but can you go back to the previous os version? I literally had a PC update last night as well and sometimes there are glitches that they fix over time with new updates. If it's annoying enough, I can go back before the update

I don't think that I can; easily at least. I'll keep looking.

Edit: I'd evidently have to back up every file on my laptop and then completely erase and redo it, and I'd prefer not to do that. This evidently is only for the games that are in current development; another Ren'Py game I'm running is running fine.

Ah, okay-- the issue resolved itself. I don't know what was going on. I did restart my computer again, but I don't know if that's what fixed it because it was still laggy before I restarted.
