Max2d performance?

BlitzMax Forums/BlitzMax Beginners Area/Max2d performance?

In windowed mode it alternates between 500 and 1000 (mostly 1000), in full screen mode it's a steady 1000. ATI Radeon 9600Pro, 128MB


(Note: On some video cards, there is a pretty major speed penalty for running 3D programs in a window.

If you are seeing slow speeds, try switching to full screen mode as well, and see if that makes any difference. In my own game, I get 1600 FPS in full screen mode, while the same code in windowed mode gives me about 960 FPS.)
