Just messing around ... I'm playing with the zombie sprite from the demo games in my own game and for kicks threw 2,000 of them with shadows plus tiles + the rockout ship and shadow. Still get 50 fps with all of that. I actually threw in 10,000 zombies and was still able to get 10 fps. Pretty awesome rendering speed. Unfortunately, with the following/crowd algorithms I've got I can't even have 200 assembled (they don't run over each other etc...) without diving down to 15 fps. Of course who really needs 2,000 characters follwing them in an organized crowd ...

Jeremy, could you see how speedy (or not) my chess program Black Knight runs on your system?

Posting here because this forum is more popular than the showcase - I myself rarely go there (I have had some FPS results though) so if you (and anyone else) could continue there it would be appreciated.

Sure ...

Thanks. :-)

Looking good so far! I get a reported 71 fps.
