Woa!... Sweet. I just tested the beta player with some of the examples on my site and woa! Here were some of my results:
IE 8.0.7 Win7x64 (30fps / 30) @ Full screen 1920 x 1200 Chrome (20fps / 30) @ Full screen 1920 x 1200 http://www.allforthecode.co.uk/development/away3d/drwho/DrWho.swf IE 8.0.7 Win7x64 (30fps / 30) @ Full screen 1920 x 1200 Chrome (20fps / 30) @ Full screen 1920 x 1200 http://www.allforthecode.co.uk/aftc/forum/article_dev/away3d/3DRoom1/bin-release/Room01.swf IE 8.0.7 Win7x63 (29 to 30fps / 30) @ Full screen 1920 x 1200 Chrome (15 to 21fps / 30) @ Full screen 1920 x 1200 http://www.allforthecode.co.uk/development/away3d/sphere_dev/index.html I will have get my hands on IE9 Beta installed to see what it can handle then as labs says: * * *"Internet Explorer 9 hardware accelerated rendering support* — Enhanced support for Internet Explorer 9 Beta. It takes advantage of hardware accelerated graphics in Internet Explorer 9 Beta, utilizing hardware rendering surfaces to improve graphics performance and enable seamless composition." I hope they don't limit this functionality to IE, it's the last browser I want to start using again. And I would love if they add the ability to detect and use the power from Open GL capable graphics cards. Would be really cool if I could do something like this lol if (system.opengl.available){ system.opengl.enable; mySphere.segmentsW = 50; mySphere.segmentsH = 50; } else { mySphere.segmentsW = 10; mySphere.segmentsH = 10; } D I just put this through all the examples on my site and none of them dropped below max fps! win7x64 On 15 September 2010 21:06, savagelook <[email protected]> wrote: > http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/flashplayer10/ > > In short, 64 bit support and hardware acceleration (SWEET!) are coming > to flash player.
