I know that's normal, but in<br> this case it's unnecessary because I don't really need the "big polygon<br> calculation and texture fill" that makes things slow - I really wanted to<br> scale the viewport as if scaling a bitmap - just recalculate the final<br> pixels, not all the polygons/textures.<br> <br> What's the best method for that? I read sometime ago about rendering to a<br> buffer, and then put the buffer on screen with the right scaling. Would that<br> be the fastest? Any examples?<br> <br> Thanks!<br> --<br> View this message in context: <a href="http://www.nabble.com/best-policy-to-scale-up-PV3D-content-without-slowing-it-down--tp24187353p24187353.html" target="_blank">http://www.nabble.com/best-policy-to-scale-up-PV3D-content-without-slowing-it-down--tp24187353p24187353.html</a><br> Sent from the Papervision3D mailing list archive at Nabble.com.<br> <br> <br> _______________________________________________<br> Papervision3D mailing list<br> <a href="mailto:Papervision3D@osflash.org">Papervision3D@osflash.org</a><br> <a href="http://osflash.org/mailman/listinfo/papervision3d_osflash.org" target="_blank">http://osflash.org/mailman/listinfo/papervision3d_osflash.org</a><br> </blockquote></div><br></div> _______________________________________________<br>Papervision3D mailing list<br><a href="mailto:Papervision3D@osflash.org">Papervision3D@osflash.org</a><br>http://osflash.org/mailman/listinfo/papervision3d_osflash.org<br></blockquote></div><br></body></html>
