My particle demo
Author
Please check out my VERY!!! basic particle demo, tell me what kind of FPS you get, your system specs and so on.
Source is available if anyone wants it *doubts*
and give me feedback, how can I improve it?
Follow this link to my page . to get the file.
Thanks
It''''s nice to be important, but it''''s more important to be nice.
I get 61 FPS on my AMD 1900+, 512MB DDR, GeForce3 Ti-500.
Seems like a low FPS considering its relative simplicity. Try and optimise any functions that are used a lot per frame.

Well, the fps are locked to the vsync, so dont worry too much. I basically want to know if anyone has any problems running it =D
With DDFLIP_NOVSYNC I get 650fps on Athlon 1333, 256Mb ram and GF3 Ti200
so it's nowhere near slow...

i notice your particles are all different colors, its a bit easier to just set the vertex color and modulate with the texture. 
then you can do stuff like color blending real easy.

Well, it would be, unless I''m using direct draw, instead of D3D...
