Hi netters ! In the last couple of days I've been asked about SDD 52 (or Univbe 5.1) and GP2 in terms "could SDD52/univbe improve GP2 frame rate ?". I tried this combination some days ago and I didn't notice any performance boost but I did not try the various GP2 command line parameters related to the video card. Well, last night I give 'em a try but I didn't notice any improvements so I can tell that (at least for me) SDD 52 / Univbe 5.1 are pretty useless with GP2. I'd really like to see a version of GP2 with support for SDD 52 linear frame buffer since I'm told that this feature could improve performance by a factor of 20/30%.

With my Diamond Stealth 2Mb DRAM, I got a 10% boost from SDD 5.2 The thing's got a 21 day free trial, so there's no harm in giving it a go. If it doesn't work, they don't get your money, simple as that. Ken
