hi im kinda new to dx8..but it seems to be a lot slower than dx7 in terms of drawing 2d.. i have a simple function to draw tiles For x = 0 To UBound(m.b, 1) For y = 0 To UBound(m.b, 2) InitSprite s, 32, 32, x * 32, y * 32, App.Path & "\m" & m.b(x, y) & ".bmp" oD3DDevice.SetTexture 0, s.oD3DTexture oD3DDevice.DrawPrimitiveUP D3DPT_TRIANGLESTRIP, 2, s.v(0), Len(s.v(0)) Next y Next x and this function seems to reduce my fps from 50+ to 10!! is there anyway to speed things up
