Re: in summary

I am getting ~150 fps while downloading software and listening to MP3s and have a few other programs active in the background. So I'm not worried about taking a frame rate hit. I tried hitting 'N' and I just got an error sound, nothing changed. (I'm running a Mac, I don't know if that matters). Is this feature disabled in the latest version or not availabe on Macs?

Basically, I want to know what I can do to make it look its best, regardless of frame rate. Could someone please summarize?

Thanks!
Hi Nick,

Calc Normals is "Shimmer" on the Mac product. Shimmer "high" is calc normals every frame for every fish. Shimmer "low" is calc normals for half of the fish each frame. Shimmer "off" is calc normalsl off. I don't think that there is a key equivalent for it.

I monitor the Mac list more closely than the Windows list, but Morgan is pretty good about answering the Mac questions when I don't see them.
