Mustang Posted July 31, 2005 Share Posted July 31, 2005 been wondering if this was in any way possible.....then i stumbled across this thread in Rage3D forums http://www.rage3d.com/board/showthread.php?t=33820300 then thought, well, why not give it a shot with lockon? testing still in progress......

stefostef Posted July 31, 2005 Share Posted July 31, 2005 triple buffering exist since the begenning of catalyst drivers and is only available in open gl so i don't see what type of improvement you will get with a directx8 engine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nannosk Posted July 31, 2005 Share Posted July 31, 2005 triple buffering exist since the begenning of catalyst drivers and is only available in open gl hi, sorry but i think it's not completely true, infact if you use same softwares (for example ati tray tool) you can create a D3D profile and force to use triple-buffering.

Mustang Posted July 31, 2005 Author Share Posted July 31, 2005 "What kind of benefict do you expect?? in fps or in quality?" ----------------------- well, from what i've witnessed so far, the overall feel of the sim with v-sync/triple-buffer enabled seems enhanced.......the main thing i've noticed is not a gain in FPS but a more steady FPS.......gotta try it out some more......BTW i wouldn't mind if some of you guys could try it out also and give some feedback if poss Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
