I wrote a little, uncomplete, engine using GLut. Yesterday i was reading tutorial N°1 and tried to convert the entire engine without using GLut. It all went right. The engine is now working but... I have a terrible lack of speed!!! It''s about 50% less!!! What went wrong? Please Help! --------------------------------------- There are 10 type of people: those who knows binary code and those who doesn''t ---------------------------------------

I read something about disabling VSync...
It should speed up the rendering speed?
Could this be a reason???

I am not sure since I don''t use GLUT since the last year, however I think this is not the problem.

Maybe you are not shortcircuiting your WM_PAINT message.
I suggest to compare your code to the one you''ll find here on nehe''s site.

It IS the code from Lesson 1!
I only rewrite (rewrote??) the paint function...

Disabling vsync would not help unless he ran the glut engine with it off. I would have to say the problem is in your main loop. Perhaps some code?
