EEEEK!!! :/
Have u tried 320x240 or 200?? On BVision? How it works? For example - WOu=
t2097
demo I have here FLIES in 320x200.
Is it SOFTWARE render OR Hardware? What is the difference?? Will Hardware
render be faster on this resolution, and how?
5 pfs is very slooow (I have 060 ppc on 166 mhz :(( )
