I have a game I have been working on and off on for several years now and I have just now added music to(don’t worry about copyright on the music, this is a personal only project and if I do ever make a public release I will ask the creators before doing so). If I use the default 2d renderer it loads fine(albeit slow) every time but the frame rate is somewhat unplayable so I use P2D, however P2D seems to have a loading timeout where if the program does not load in a certain span of time P2D assumes it has crashed and errors out like this (Waited 5000ms for: \<4b737871, 45b48f6f\>[count 2, qsz 1, owner \<main-FPSAWTAnimator#00-Timer0\>] - \<main-FPSAWTAnimator#00-Timer0-FPSAWTAnimator#00-Timer1\>). It becomes a game of chance if it will load or not (helped by telling Nvidia control panel to favor the dedicated GPU but still not perfect). this error started appearing as I began loading the music into game and my chances of the game loading have decreased as I added more music. the code is located here [https://github.com/Haxorouse/Space-shooter-alpha](https://github.com/Haxorouse/Space-shooter-alpha) . If anyone knows how to fix it I would appreciate it very much. suggestions and bug reports would also be appreciated.

This statement `surface.setResizable(true);` is very problematic on my 64-bit PDE 3.5.3 under Win 8.1 using the P2D renderer. 🤒

Perhaps move it to the end of **setup()** or try to load your assets in **settings()** instead. 🤔

in every draw you call ONE levelx,  
inthere at the end call same HUD();  
inthere create a FONT by reading a file  
`HUDFont=createFont("Monotxt_IV50-15.vlw",15);`

shouldn’t that be in setup only once?

( i not test run it or read all … just saw accidentally )

Worked, loading them in settings pre-loads them and then the renderer doesn’t assume it has crashed, thank you
