How do I go about making a small time delay.. just about half a second to make some stuff flash. If I just make a loop to make it dissapear and reappear it goes too fast and you can''t tell. -Steve

You can check time intervals in your main game loop. In the NeHe tutorials there should be ways to check time. When the time difference becomes so large the do what u want. That way you will always have the same delay on different machines

On a side note:
If you research hard enough you should be able to find out how to make your effect update according to the change in time. That way things run smoother on faster machines.
