    This is still my last game...

    http://www.vbforums.com/showthread.p...hreadid=207760

    ...by the way, do any of you have a picture/drawing of a car from the top. So I can use it in my new game. Or more then I picture would also be great.

    Project = That one is ok...

    Comm = ???

    Area = Ok maybe it sepens on what comm means...

    TOW = I have no idea. In the army we learned that TOW is a kind of tank....lol

    Project Comm Area is a little used forum way down there at the bottom of the main page. TOW is an acronym for Times Of War, which would make sense upon looking in above mentioned forum =)

    I suppose that should be my answer too
    I've made a few little ones (tech demos shall we say) but it's hard for me to sit down and code the same thing from one time, so I jump from project to project (right now I'm alternating between volunteer work, school, and ToW).
    All contents of the above post that aren't somebody elses are mine, not the property of some media corporation.
    (Just a heads-up)

    Well since someone brought it back up, i'll post my game.

    http://www.lonexgaming.com/1945.zip

    Uses DirectX 7. I still need to use clipping, but I haven't found the energy to do so yet.

    Thanks. It does? Strange, I thought I had the worst computer, I use a 450 mhz, pentium 2 and get 250 FPS and very smooth game play. I turned off the frame limiter, maybe I should turn it back on.

    yeah... sdram is quite slow. hmm.....
    It doesn't slow my computer down, I wonder if it could be the speed of the RAM...

    I've uploaded the new version, only change is I reinstated the frame limiter so the max FPS is 50. The reason your guys' computers are running so slow is because the FPS is taking up so much system resources because theres no limit on the FPS, but now there is. Please let me know =]

    Thanks,
    Zach
