Hi Matthew
I missed the zoom problem
when I zoom in on solar system objects I don't have any fps problems. In fact
it is slightly faster. However the "texture" becomes a checker board
(Yellow/black).
This does not happen on all my platforms and is intermittent on some. It has to
be with is trying to use OpenGL 2.1 functions that are not catered for in many
video drivers.
