change to scenery mode and it will combine the right texture with the right model and you can cycle through them with q and w

I'm getting about 1,000,000 +/- 100,000

no problems really, except for that one texture that is HUGE and covers up the model lol

I ran it in 800x600 windowed, fullscreen, then 1600x1200 windowed and then fullscreen and there was no performance hit

64-bit systems should be able to run 32-bit applications. I'll have to look into this more carefully; I don't know much about Windows Vista, so that might have something to do with the problems...

Works.
Didnt realize that Vista didnt come with any dx sdks or redistribution's. I think i got them all installed.

Revision 3 Notes for Vista Ultimate 64 bit
FPS: 1,200,000 +/- 300,000
The FPS changes a lot, spends some time under 1,000,000 sometimes.
I dont notice anything different from the XP side other then the FPS.

Alright, when started, the intro uses about 15-20% cpu, then when demo mode is started it uses 50%. My average fps is around 18000000 to 18500000. The only problem was that eventually it froze.

Ran at about 1400000.5 FPS, and increased my CPU use from about 5% to about 50%.

Cursor was lagging a bit, especially had trouble when I moved from inside the window to outside.

Revision 3 Notes for XP MCE 2005 w/sp2 (addition to notes)
If you change the ini to put client in full screen and you hit windows key or minimize client.exe then try to reactivate the window, it doesnt load it back up.

Ah, yes...I haven't addressed minimizing the game yet; doing that destroys Direct3D objects. It shouldn't be hard to figure out though.
