I manage to get around 2 frames per second here if I include USEASBMP in my code. I know my video card is hardly earth shattering (a NVidia FX5500) but that can't be right, surely?
Should not be. What screen resolution? Fullscreen or windowed? Can you post an example?
Sure. In this code:
// --------------------------------- //
// USEASBMP bug
// --------------------------------- //
SETSCREEN 640,480,1
WHILE KEY(01)=FALSE
FOR loop=1 TO 100
SETPIXEL RND(640),RND(480),RGB(200,0,0)
NEXT
time1=GETTIMERALL()
USEASBMP
time=GETTIMERALL()-time1
PRINT "TIME TAKEN : "+time,0,460
SHOWSCREEN
WENDI'm averaging around 1700ms for the USEASBMP command to work. Windowed makes no difference. Changing to 320x240 speeds it up to around 1680ms
15 ms in fullscreen
and
11 ms in windowed
If your GL Driver OK ?
Fixed in next update. Surface grabbes was max texture size (which is 8000x8000 or so....)
Thanks Gernot - works a treat - down to 5ms now :)
D²O - your video card is obviously a tad better than mine! :D
