thats because of your graphics card. I think its not even a real card but a chip on the mainboard which is pretty slow and which can't handle the smoke particles.

I'll change something for the next version so that you will be able to have lower smoke quality and more speed by decreasing the particle details in the menu (atm this doesn't affect smoke grenade smoke)

you can also try to run the directx bat files. this might be faster on some systems (opengl is used by default)

I'm only 15 years old and im not a comp expert..
I live alone with my mother and my mom knows even less of computers then me, even if it works on buying a new graphics card (afraid of those expert-guys in shops will rip me off) i still dont know how to put the graphics card in my computer.. im afraid ill screw something up..

DC im a fan of your cs2d game and ive been playing it for atleast 3 years and im willing to play Max even more im addicting to it, but i cant if the smoke wil llag. im looking forward to the particle decrease thingy.
why didnt my comp lag in the old cs2d even if there is alot of smoke there?

and wow I didnt know my computer didnt had a REAL graphics card.. jUSTiN said the same, he told me its not a real graphics card.. it shocked me because ive been playing games alot and most lag but CS2D not and ive had my computer about 6 years.. I really need help

well. you cant screw up something in your computer unless you use force or unplug something. you should do some reseach on the net and find where you stick the graphics card in. Then you buy the graphics card and stick it on as shown. there should be a manual with the graphics card √

old cs2d didn't lag because it used another engine. as I said you should try to start it with the bat files which have "directx" in the name. this might make it faster (the old cs2d used directx too).

yes. no matter with what I run the old CS2D in, be it windowed, directx, freesizemode, fullscreen, it NEVER lagged and I ALWAYS had 49 FPS (rarely 48 FPS)

but here on Max I can either only run Windowed or Fullscreen because the direct-x files decrease my FPS even more.. it gives me 30 FPS while fullscreen or windwoed gives me normal 50 fps (when there isnt alot of smoke)     

so the direct-x batfiles lag me even more

lol!!

i have almost the exact same computer as u.. just more ram and a bit more cpu ... and i lag like crazy when theres lots of smoke..

my computer:

Intel(R) 82865G Graphics Controller
Plug and Play Monitor

Intel(R) Celeron(R) CPU 2.80GHz

496MB RAM

u must add a new feature to minimize the graphics on smoke..

yeah I'll try to optimize this as I already explained.
and you have to buy a graphics card. on-board intel chips are just too slow for gaming
