Im making a matrix editor called "DarkWorld Editor"

I use a cube as "current edit position", is it normal that, when I use a cube I get 60/65FPS and when I use a cone I get 6/9FPS???

a cone uses a lot of polys, that could be your problem

a drop of about 50 fps seems a bit excessive though...

It does indeed...

Mabey you changed something else by mistake...?

But, yeah, a cube uses much less poly's, about 16 ( 32 including the inside faces ), whereas a DB Cone uses MUCH more...

Hope I Helped...
