Ah, ok, so that's why. I recall when I didn't enable double buffering the screen flickered heavily, but the frame rate indicator wrote something above 250 :)

Seriously though, who doesn't have the tweaker bar all the way to the left? It's for your eyes' sake...

I certainly do. I thought perhaps there are some people with units that worked better on other settings, but perhaps not. Otherwise, why GPH wouldn't just make the setting "Fuck Up LCD / Unfuck LCD" instead of a slider bar is lost on me.

I'm unsure of how this works out on the MK2, though. For all I know, that LCD could have a fixed framerate it expects, maybe it can use the whole range ~30-~112 FPS, maybe it ignores it ... I guess the only way to know for sure is to pick up an MK2, but I don't have nearly $200 to throw around for that right now. ;) Unless someone else wants to experiment with the method you used, and report back their results...
 
Should be doable since the main CPU (920T) wouldn't really need to do anything while the rest of the system plays video .. the two actions could trade places-- gameplay and video playback.

how about an FMV game

That would be cool, but I don't think it would work with the type of game I am making. Maybe later...

Anyway, here are some pictures of my game. The first is of the old 3D pre-rendered graphics, and the second is of some pixel art graphics I did two days ago.

In my opinion, I do think the pixel graphics look better. It looks much cleaner, and they are easier to do than creating a 3D model.

defineitely the second one.
but you might want to add some shading or something. just to keep it from looking too simple.
keep it up though

And a little less "radioactive green" B)

Looking very nice though. Looking forward to this, I miss some good driving games on the 2X.
