Lag in Chrome Only

[ashes999]

Hi,


I created a new MV project -- no plugins, just a sample map. When I run it in the built-in play tester, it runs fine. On Firefox, it runs fine. On Chrome, it runs quite slow (about 2x as slow as normal).


I'm pretty sure it's not GPU-based, because other browsers/etc. are fine. I'm pretty sure my GPU drivers are also at the latest version.


Below is a dump of chrome://gpu/, if that's useful.


I'm worried that if it lags for me, it might lag for my end-users, too.

If you press F2 to bring up the FPS Meter, does it say it's running in WebGL or Canvas for Firefox and Chrome? It'd be weird if Chrome was different, but I suppose it'd be a possible cause. Though it still shouldn't cause noticeable lag.


What version of MV was your project created with, or last updated to? (Your project's JS files, NOT the editor's version)


Do you have an example online that we can look at?

Thanks for the prompt reply.


Chrome runs 30FPS in WebGL mode. FireFox runs 60FPS in WebGL mode.


I initially made my project with the original version of RPG Maker when it came out a year ago. I tried it again yesterday. Game.rpgproject cites the version as 1.3.3.


I don't have an online example. I would love to make one, except it'll be ~300MB with all the RTP data. There's nothing special about my project; it's just a brand-new project with two generated characters, and one of the pre-generated town maps.


Edit: more data: when I walk around, in Chrome, the FPS drops as low as 15FPS sometimes (but usually hovers around 30). When I open the menu, it jumps up to around 45-50FPS. I tried running Chrome without any plugins/extensions, but the behaviour didn't change.
