1) Why don''t you use a float instead of a double ?
2) If you''re using the CD3DFont then just change the alpha value of it''s color...

Kamikaze, what are you smoking? TextOut doesn''t take a float OR a double.
Neen, in order to print out a float, you''ll first have to write its value into a character string. The function that will help you do that is sprintf(); read up on it.
Don''t listen to me. I''ve had too much coffee.

u can do something like this
char buf[20];
sprintf(buf,"fps: %0.2f",fpsvalue);
font->TextOut(buf,....)
char buf[20];
sprintf(buf,"fps: %0.2f",fpsvalue);
font->TextOut(buf,....)
