Title: Technology to the max
Post by: Tab on April 02, 2005, 06:13:53 am

I'm now watching visis in 16 color mode, at 480x640, at 4fps. Surprisingly most look semi-acceptable.

Beware the ultimate in new technology, cos backward compatible can sometimes be missing a period. Backward. Compatible.

But its ok when you know it'll be doing 240fps later.

Ooh, it rocks. Max fps rate means high speed motion and complete smoothness, impossible at 30fps.

Yup, got a round tuit at last, a big Geforce 8x AGP. Will put a 2.8 cpu in as well later, everything else's up to spec already.

Like the 3d stuff. Just a shame programming it is so inaccessible. Theres a lot that could be done...

I reckon quite a bit of that could be done in 2d if global variables were added.

I just feel sorry for the caterpillar. At 90fps it looks like its lil legs are going to fly off!
