hey, i''m currently using the timer functions from NeHe''s tutorials to control the time flow in my program. the problem is that time''s flying awfully fast - a rough estimate would be 1.8 seconds per each real life second (i get 18 fps reports every ten seconds). this used to be the case on my old cpu, a P3 as it is on the shiny new AthlonXP. i haven''t messed with the timer resolution (still 1/1000) and frequency (still 1000). is the high resolution counter "out of the 1000 ms sync" or do i need to do sth else to get perfect 1000 ms intervals? thanks, crispy

I''m not sure i get your problem...*BUT* i think your''e asking for some sort of frameskipping. right?!.

Anyway, frameskipping creates constant framerate of your choice on faster CPU, and makes your code look jerky on slow CPU.
