Other then textures, what is ram used for? Seems to me that's the only primary one. Is there anything else? Edited by - Someone1 on December 17, 2001 9:36:25 AM

Vertex data, game world data.

If at first you don't succeed, redefine success.

RAM? You mean RAM in your video card, or the system''s memory?

I meant system memory actually but I would want to know video card too. From what I understand, system meory holds all the information when a level is loaded and that information swapped in and out of video card as they appear on screen? Is that right?
