JmeDeskTop Problem with MacBook Pro on X 10.4.8

Troubleshooting gui
1

I am developing using recent version of jme on Max Os X.

It is successfully when I'm running jmetest.*

but I think there is critical problem with JMEDesktop.java

the problem is low(2~3) fps

(ex. HelloJMEDesktop, TestJMEDesktop, TestJMEDesktopState, TestJMEDragAndDrop)



Please give me advice…



video card : ATI Mobility Radeon x1600 (256MB)

ram   : 1GB

2-3 fps while nothing on the desktop changes? That's hardly possible as it's just a Quad with a texture then :?

Quad with a texture is not problem… :slight_smile:



Swing is not problem.



Only It is problem what using JMEDesktop(in jmetest.*)



:cry:

Did you try updating your drivers? It's a rather cheap display adapter but it still should get more fps out of these tests.

Please try a Quad having a texture with the same resolution like the app window or higher (e.g. 1024x1024). Probably it's that heavily fill rate limited :?

Updating drivers is not an option since, well, this is OS X

So no ideas what might cause this? Fengui works fine but i'd rather use standard Swing for UI (for editor of my game project)

Bear in mind the performance drawbacks of Swing.

Yeah, probably be better to create your editor as a add-on to Eclipse; its much faster than Swing (compare Eclipse to NetBeans) as it uses IBM's UI layer and it, Eclipse, provides a lot of the things you would need for a standard application out of the box anyways.  Good example of this is MonkeyWorld.

I believe he's referring to inside his game…
