Horde3D

Hi,
I tried to use Horde3DUtils::showFrameStats() today. It displays the info on geometry correctly, but it doesn't put out fps or cpu time. CPU TIme is alway 0.00 and fps "1.#J".
Do I have to initialize or start something for fps display to work?

thanks in advance.

Donno whats the problem, but you must call it like this :

I do....

The timing functions must not be working on your PC.

What operating system and CPU are you using?

Windows XP. Intel Quadcore.
Strangely enough it seems that when im running in the debugger the frame time is 0.04ms, but the reported fps is ~27000 and not changing at all, regardless how many triangles im looking at.

We are using the high performance counter (QueryPerformanceCounter) for time measurement on Windows. I have read that it can be buggy on some systems. If you are interested in trying it out if that is the case on your system, you could quickly write a little console application that does some time measurement. The time measurement code is in utTimer.h and should be relatively independent of Horde.

I think he's using a kind of system tuning applications. Perhaps some of system services has been disabled by that application.

Go to the Start>Run [or Win+R]> and type this : "services.msc" [without ""]. Search for the "Performance Logs and Alerts" and set it to the automatic/manual startup. I've experienced similar problems when playing with performance counters in C#.

I had the same problem when I used code that had been developed with Horde beta2
in a project using the beta3 DLLs.
I could fix it by simply adding right after "render(_cam)"
