I've written a great new accelerator for DBPro games!
The DBTurbocharger or DBT is a revolutionary new way to access multimedia technology, it seemlessly integrates into directX and DarkBASIC and gives a solid performance increase of x3 expected levels.
The technology is very very easy to implement and meens adjusting just one simple line of code that is likely already in your program. Once in, everything will appear to run x3 faster, even though the performance envelop of your computer is not being exceeded.
I'm making this technology free for everyone to use as I think it will greatly benefit the DB community.
Does it work in Classic as well as Pro? It sure does, although performance increase on Classic is countermanded by cards that do not operate 2D and 3D together very well. However the effect still works.
So what is this amazing and subtle code change?
DBTurbocharge=3
do
text 20,20,"Fps: "+str$(screen fps()*DBTurbocharge)
sync
loop
You will notice that this sample runs 3 times faster than this un turbocharged code.
do
text 20,20,"Fps: "+str$(screen fps())
sync
loop
Amazing results and so easy to achieve! Use your DBTurbocharger today and unleash DarkBASIC's power! And just remember who tought you the trick!
