    PS3 vs PS2 for RPGM2 And That Dang BLUR!!

    Here's an obvious question I have not seen addressed in the forums...

    With it's Big Fancy Processor and all, does RPGM2 have any better performance in terms of overwhelming the Playstation Hardware and making everything go blurry when too many VFX are on a map?

    That is a Hardware issue, and not inherent in the software, right?

    If anyone could compare, and report back, I'd be grateful.

    I'm in no position to buy a PS3 just yet, but if it improves the performance of RPGM2... I'll start saving!

    Thanks to anyone who can research this for me!

    Peace.

    MOO!

    Just realized that this never got an answer.

    RPGM2 looks just the same on the PS3. I've found the text is sharper and easier to read in the editors, but thats the only difference. the blur is still there.

        Yeah, its a software issue. The blur is a result of the creation engine being so flexible, as is the extremely close draw distance. The PS2 doesnt have much memory, and sacrifices had to be made in order to let the user be as creative as they wanted without the game slowing to a crawl or completely locking up.

          Is the blur on RPGM2 really that bad? I'm interested in getting one of the PS2 titles eventually, and RPGM2 looks more interesting. From what I've read, RPGM3 sounds likes it's a bit more limiting, while RPGM2 is more customizable, but also much more complex. A lot of what I've read mention the blur issue on RPGM2, but that's not really the sort of thing that would bother me much unless it's really really bad.

            It's very bad if you have a lot of different stuff on the screen. One of my detterents from working on my game is because I can't make any large areas without going through an acid trip.

            But it is considered he best RPGM anyhow.

              I don't think the blur is really that bad. It's very noticeable at first, but you get used to it.

                It's not bad, like Dray said.
                It just takes time to get used to.
