Thanks both of you for pointing in the direction of Replica Island, which I was unaware of before. Great of Chris to share his experience! The video of it can be found here: http://code.google.com/events/io/2009/sessions/WritingRealTimeGamesAndroid.html Seem like I'll be forced down the path of OpenGL if I want good performance for many tiles. As I'm not really into game development but do this just to learn more (I find doing a simple "real time" game a good way to learn to optimize things and learn more about the graphics/layout) I was hoping to avoid OpenGL but I suppose that's a path I have to take. These two links are what made me hope for clipping: http://www.anddev.org/viewtopic.php?p=12392 http://jtomlinson.blogspot.com/2008/10/clipping.html -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
