..i currently have Pentium 166 and Win98,and so far OHRRPGCE runs smooth..but then my cousin has Pentium3 and WinXP..and OHRRPGCE runs smoother/faster..so is my computer too slow or is WinXP too fast?

I used to be on a P16 with Win98, and things ran fine, but to answer your question, to get the OHR running faster, you'll need a highter Pentium chip.

The only things that will be faster will be loads. Otherwise, it's the same speed, whether you have a 486 or a 1.4GHz AMD Duron.

..no,i meant the OHRRPGCE games themselves..the heros walk faster,the scrolling is smoother,everything..or maybe it's a bug in WinXP..?

I've never had a problem with the OHR in any of the many operating systems I've used.

But Win98 is largely considered the worst version out there. My condolences.

I'm on a similarly slow machine, except I'm running Windows 95. In fact, its probably not even 166. But I know what you mean, the scrolling is kind of lagging and really big scripts run very slowly on my comp. I want to try it on my girlfriend's laptop because its brand new and see what the actual difference is.

Ooh, sounds pretty romantic to me. "Hey, baby, let's do a little game design... if you know what I mean."

(Suddenly, I can see that line going into at least half of Giz's games.)

Acutally Win98 is the most buggy of all the Windows OSes. I personally think 2000 is the most secure.

That's the processor speed. Pentium chip, 166Mhz.

I can't tell if Kahn was being sarcastic and I think Fyre mislabeled his graph (hard to tell, since it's pretty cryptic anyway). 98 and Me are the two least stable Windowses out there.
