MiniB3D Demo

| I just finished another demo for MiniB3D. As always, please feel free to use the code, 3d models and textures for your own projects-no restrictions. (some of them are good, but some are lousy. was not too concerned with the art). The code was adapted from Simon's picking example http://www.bmaxbook.com/miniB3D%20Test2.zip (I included miniB3D.bmx in the folder to make it easy to run for everyone. It is version 0.30. Hope that is ok simon?) Please let me know what you think as well as FPS/ glitches /etc... |

| I have fast 190 FPS, some jerkies when far away, so that I can see all Islands and then pan . Could be my tft though, can't check. |
| ||
| I have 206 using the minib3d supplied, and 300-400 using the kelpto module. It looks good, no glitches here |
| ||
| hmmm. I wonder what accounts for the difference by using the klepto mod? |
| ||
| I think he has optimized the code to make the engine only calculate the rendering to what it is on view, the same as Blitz3D does, while miniB3D calculates all the existing 3D objects, all the time. |

| No, my version uses Vertex Buffer Objects when available. That means if you use static meshes qou only send the model data one time to the graphicsdata instead of everytime with without them. Transferring the data to the graphicsadapter is the main bottleneck for most 3Dengines. |

| 480-600 FPS AMD 64 3000 Venice XP NVidia 6800 1024 MB RAM with B3d: 800 FPS With the MiniB3D Version from Klepto - 800 fps |
