thanks for the feedback. Yes, 3D does give a smoother look. I have changed my refresh etc, and tested it on several machines, but the important factor is that the game runs on other peoples machines (without them adjusting their refresh), so this would not help in the long run.

How do you check if the gfx drivers are forcing a vsync wait? I've looked at the driver, geforce Ti4600, and the closest thing I can see, says "Verticle Sync - Application Controlled" which suggests to me that its not waiting. Again this won't help, as I can't force prospective customers to change their gfx card settings, but I'm curious.

I'll stick with what I've got without the vwait. At least it seems to be consistent over 3 machines (which is the important factor to me), allbeit with the odd jerkiness.

I think I'm just being fussy. I'm sure it used to scroll smoother on the C64!!
