plz help. i just download defold version 1.2.169 and its taking forever to load whenever i launch it. i have a 10.8.5 2012 macos laptop which i cant upgrade because its my moms and she doesnt want me to do stuff like that to her device. the most i waited was a hr. is there any advice on how to speed up the time it takes to load defold?
hey dude, sorry you are having trouble with defold. On a 2012 laptop I am not sure if there is much you can do, because that’s a pretty old device and the pace of change in the last 8 years has been pretty fast… Ask your mom for a new laptop?
thx for the advice but I dont think i can convince her to do that. But do you know the estimated time i have to wait? that would be really helpful.
It should start up in seconds. Something is wrong.
Try the download link here for macOS 10.7-10.10: https://d.defold.com/stable/
it says cant be opened because its from a unidentified developer
Don’t you get an option to open it anyway?
oops yes but it still takes a long time to load when i turned it off
its the same even if i use the link
Right click on it, then hold down the Alt (Option) key while pressing “Open”. You’ll get an option to “Open anyway”.
thx but it doesnt work
Ok, them I’m not sure what is wrong I’m afraid. It should start in seconds.
oh its ok. sorry for bothering you
Hey… have you tried scratch? You can make some pretty great stuff and it works within your browser. It’s kind of childish (I don’t know how old you are) but you can actually use it to make fully-working 2D games.
thx. i will try
wait. do you know any other game engines that supports lua and works on my device
No. But you could also try stencyl. That’s where i got started.
