I can confirm that. Tuxracer consistently ran at 100 - 110fps, but ppracer runs at 75 - 80fps on my computer. You're right, the difference is noticeable, but not enough to be a problem. I had to turn on the fps display to see how much of a difference it was. My computer is a 1.8Ghz AMD Athlon with 1GB of ram and a Radeon 9200SE video card. Unfortunately this doesn't help your problem, but I can confirm you're not the only one seeing it. HTH, Jacob -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
