Vertical Retrace...

new topic     » topic index » view thread      » older message » newer message

Why do i need to wait fot the beginning of a vertical retrace?
What if one is going on already... can't i just wait for one to end?

        I've cut the waiting for a retrace to begin and it is a lot faster
and nicer.
        Also my routines seem to cough as some machines... i know this has
either something to do with the memory cache, virtual memory,
euphoria interpreter or because the code is *quicker* than the
retrace, although i can't see this possible, does any one know what
the refresh rate normally is and how to set...

        Or does any1 know how to take control of the automatic refresh thing
and do each refresh manually.... :) (Would solve all the problems)
        I noticed that all other games (like Jazz Jack Rabit) don't have
this kind of problem!
