UT 2003 sous Mac OSX 10.3 - Lionel - 06:29:23



Panther ne cesse de nous étonner chaque jour un peu plus. "le_mackeux" sur les forums, a posté le résulat de BenchUT2003 sous 10.2.6 et 10.3. Il a un G4 Quicksilver 933 avec une Radeon 9000 et 1,5 Go de RAM. Les tests ont été effectués en 1280*1024 avec la démo flyby-citadel



Sous 10.2.6:

Score 37.00

Min FPS 11.42

Average FPS 36.94

max 121.27



Sous 10.3:

Score 55.95

Min FPS 17.4

Average FPS 57.026

max 192.117



Le score augmente de plus de 30% ! On arrive même Ã* se sentir frustré de tout ce temps perdu depuis la 10.0 !

One is even able to feel frustrated all this time wasted since the 10.0!



    So was this caused by optimizations to the kernel(probably not) or OpenGL(probably so). It UT20003 gets this kind of speed, what will other games get?



    Oh, and what else uses OpenGL? I know most stuff is done by Quartz Extreme.

    Quartz Extreme uses OpenGL, does it not? Also, OpenGL is used in many 3d games, and I believe 3D rendering software often uses OpenGL. So basically if it's that much better that is excellent.

    Well OpenGL 1.5 is coming, is that going to make Panther?



    I hope it's faster, it sucks on the PowerBook G4 12" and it really shouldn't with a 32 meg vid card.
