No, at least 120fps. Mostly noticable when performing rolling
maneauveres. Most current commerical/military flight sims are 60 and the
current + next generation are doi

Wrong question. The question is "how many more triangles do you need on
screen?"
And the answer is that I want all those I can get while still getting a
a decent frame rate. You will never come to a point where top notc

Hi Rob,
In that benchmark the timer is started after the scene is built and
stopped after the last frame is drawn. The graphs shown in the
report is when I timed how long it took to draw 3000 frames with
vertical sync switched off, using the same driver and same
screen mode / color depths.
So, i
Jacob,
In your paper "Evaluating Java for Game Devlopment"you compare the speed of
OpenGl and Java 3D by measuring the time it takes to create a virtual world
consisting of several thousand boxes. Please excuse my naivety, but is the
time in seconds simply a measure of how long it takes to get t
Hi,
A university technical report called
"Evaluating Java for Game Development" has
been published. It considers whether Java
can be used for professional game development
and whether it is a good idea to do so.
Of special interest to this group is that Java3D
is one of the technologies that is
