Is there any faster way to transfer an image/buffer contents to either a bmax image or pixmap in realtime? im having to use bbreadpixelfast to a pixmap just to give a non realtime 3d view for my GUI app.

i wouldnt care if you can only have one graphics window open so long as i could transfer image data to a bmax image in a decently faster manner.

not really.

even "hacking" in and retrieving the image structure won't help you as the slow step is the download of the image into the RAM. GPUs are seriously bad at that as they never were meant to do it
