Fogs bringing down FPS with 10+?

[Twin Matrix]

Is it normal that adding a fog slows FPS down by at least 10? Without fog I have about a 33 FPS, and with a standard RTP fog I go down to 22. Using a custom fog brings it even further down to 12 (and they're only like 522 x 522 something). Is this normal or did I mess something up somewhere?

Like, I can have a small 20 x 30 map with only 3 events or so, and adding a fog makes the FPS go waaa~y down. : S

Strange, with me it goes crazy. The same goes for adding a few pictures (like sunrays), that makes FPS go down by 8 or so, too. Did you try it with Add blending?

Hmm, ok, thanks. =) I have smooth mode on and reduce screen flickering off, because the latter increases lag.

I already made a copy of my Scripts and then deleted all unnecessary scripts like the Message System, etc. but it's still the same. X_x It's really strange. I have this map with no events except for teleporting out and starting up the fog & tint screen, and yet the FPS is 20. o.O

Did you test this in a clean project with no added or modified scripts? If you have never had this problem before, did you do anything recently? If not, can you post your computer specifications?

I think Wyatt had this problem with Vengeance once, the only reason that I can think of is that you have other scripts that takes down the FPS.
