Hello,

I have a computer at work I was testing a level on, it seems to run fine but the vsync column on the debug panel is up to 30 and 40 ms, and the framerate is about 10 to 15 as a result of this... All the others are low between 0 and 2 for frame rendering entity rendering and such, I was wondering, what can make the vsync have a high ms time on a PC?...

The PC is AMD 1.3 16 meg onboard SiS card DX8 installed..

Any help would be great

Thanks

Bumpity Bump... =)

Can anyone tell me what vsync does?
I assume it was the refresh rate of the monitor
but mabey im wrong on that, anyhow just wondering why when sometimes im only rendering 2 or 4 polys I have a vsync ms. time of 8 or 10.. Sumthin seems strange about that to me..

Any help would be great..
Thanks

You should be able to disable VSync in your video card driver settings. VSync waits for the frame to get completely rendered before the next frame can be rendered (slowing it down). Without VSync you might see some flickering, but I usually always run with it OFF.
