I limited mine to 40ish and with the correct frames and movement speed it runs just like EO and since it's so low on FPS it should work perfectly on slow PC's too

If you start to notice that it is slower than EO. I would bet it's Allegro4. In my opinion, I have no faith in it; I do think it will slow you down. If it ever does, Allegro5 would be the next option.
That is what eomap2 was made in, and you can't even say that's slow :P
I couldn't get faster FPS on eomap2 in my previous map editors.

I'm using Allegro5 myself for my project :) I will agree that it is alot fater on FPS that Allegro4 so I would also recomend an upgrade

well on the moment i don't have lag here and i can make movement way better but than i can't read walk x and y so on the moment i prefer this way :p and if i get lag i will look how to change it but i think my reall project will be in VB but i will make this 1 first done

A VB clone will be worse, Even my Map Editor sucked in that and it didn't include NPC's ect.

I'll frigging kill you if you make this in Allegro 4 I downloaded it and opened it, Jesus, My computer lagged like there was no tomorrow, and the "x" was blocked so ALT CTRL Delete worked well.

Ya I suggest making it in C++ or Allegro 5

Works on me ?

Doesn't lag on me though...

Allegro is in C/C++ Allegro5 is just a new release that is all different to the old release. I like the new Allegro to be honest and the more time I spend off here means more time me coding LOL. I need to get the loading working perfectly in Allegro5 before the end of the night.

Oh Lol. Well yeah. allegro 5 it is.

Stuff you should fix tho

Reduce walk speed 30%

Still work when you press other program or minimize not glitch (song example)

The map is 23 x 32 but its reading the ? x THIS <- Wrong

EDIT: Microship, you have to press Quit, he havent added the X option yet i belive

@ Reptile, Okay @ this x part. 

and no don not reduce the walk speed at all. it's fine where it is

If anything make it a tad bit faster. not enough to tell really, but right now I find it's walking a little slow. causing just a tad bit lag.

Why the hell would you even want it faster? That would cause more lagg o.o

Read what I said, I said a tad faster, not enough you can really tell. Try putting speed low on EO. see how that turns out :] Reason for the lag when you speed high, is cause EO reading frames has a limit.
