Software mode!

When i play no limits in software mode it seems to run a bit slower than normal. Does anyone know why this happens. I play in software mode becuase i can build my supports without the game crashing.

hmmm I dunno, maybe someone from the NL Dev team can answer that. At least one of them visits on a daily basis, judging from my daily visitors log [:)]

Ok then. It takes up all of my cpu usage and i think that is why it is running slow.

What are the advantages of running it in software mode and how do I even run it in software mode? I don't know this kinda stuff[:p]

how do you run in software you ask? Easy just press start, then all programs , then nolimitscoaster then simply just press nolimits editor software mode.Problem solved

'Normal' mode uses your computers 3D hardware (usually the graphics card, but some CPUs also have some form of hardware acceleration for 3D graphics) to display the wireframe views of the coaster you see in the editor window.
Software mode makes no use of any 3D graphics hardware you have, and puts all the load of this on the CPU, (it also won't make use of any 3D optimizations the CPU may have, AFAIK).
The upshot of this is that on most systems, software mode will be noticably slower. But, as Matt has noticed, it is also more reliable.
