    GP2X Planning My Software 3d Renderer

    i agree framebuffer access is probaly the best way to go. just a quick question about the minimal library. Im going to be using it with devcpp as for compiling it do I have to add anything different to the linker or just keep the standard sdl stuff? thanks!

    GP2X Planning My Software 3d Renderer

    Hi guys thanks for your comments! Well lets remember that quake uses bsp which is fast but is not suitable for my needs as I like to have some dynamic scene generation. Without bsp I believe it would be a little bit lagging. Of course the 2x is relatively fast but to run a scene with a large...

    Voltage Mod On 2x?
