The zOMFG! Look at those Awsome Frames Per Second! tut

[Robertbobby91]

Try this tutorial to get awsome frames.

1. follow this tutorial, only edit it from medevial 2 total war to celestia

2. in the section about adding the "2" in "present changer", also edit the refresh rate to above or equal to 100 (i use 500 refresh rate)

3. Witness the "zOMFG, Look at thos frekin awsome FPS !!!!!!!" factor

There is a catch, heat is EMENSIVE! I sugest either your video card's provided overclocking utility to bost the fan speeds(Example: nTune), or use this:

Ah, this will have no value to Celestia as Celestia doesn't use Direct X for its 3D API. It uses OpenGL so anything you do to tweak Direct X nothing foe adding frames to Celestia.

Well it did for me, whatever happened. I think it forced Directx to work, but in any case, my frames are great now.

While they talk about using a 'tweaker' program to make DirectX support triple buffering, OpenGL already supports it, so you just have to flip the setting in your graphics config program.

If you have vsync on and your framerate is less than your refresh rate, triple buffering will help (but use more ram). Otherwise it won't.
