Should the "LifeGlobe" test registration "stick"?

It would be nice to be able to test performance with more than one fish in the tank, but I understand why you've done it that way.

The fish are visually stunning, and I like the 'zoom effect' when switching in and out of full screen mode.

Unfortunately, my 32MB graphics card doesn't seem to be adequate for more than one fish with a medium or lush tank.

Maybe you could add "hover hints" to some of the stuff in the advanced settings, to explain what 'shimmer' 'use vertex array range' and 'use vertex programs' might do?

Fabulous port, job well done.

Hi AKcrab,

LifeGlobe doesn't stick. It is a pain, but we want you to buy the program if you decide to use it more than trivially.

Please send me your hardware configuration and what framerate you get.

I just finished adding more hover hints. Great minds think alike!

Thanks for the kind words!
