Ever since my last forum I've been working on this problem, I can't
seem to get the program to load a explosion if there is a collision, everyone of my objects get real slow. Would that be something wrong with my computer

What exactly is the 'explosion' you are loading? An image, a bitmap, an object, a movie, a data file?

Does your program run slow all the time or only when the collision occurs?

What collision detection are you using? DBC collision commands can be very slow in some circumstances.

Need more details!

you shouldn't really be loading it on collision, it should already be loaded just hidden

Your signature has been erased by a mod because it was rubbish.

I'm loading a animated object,it is always slow,and I'm using a set object collision to spheres 13. (13 is the numeral name of my bullet)


Obese87-what do you mean not loading the explosion on a collision thats the only way I have heard of.

Try not to load anything during a game. Collision detection can be slow if you program it badly. Best collision routines check for closest object collision, and only those objects that are nearest to Object A, can collide. You need to post your code.

load everything at the start of your program, before it enters the main loop
