Hi,
I notice that FE handle a max of 1000 3D cube on my PC.
I can't try same test in my AppGameKit 'cause I have the demo version (v107, no 3D commands). If I try to add other objects I get black freezed screen and I must back to reduce until 1000 the 3D cubes.

(My pc is a 4gb ram on Win7 64bit)

Over that can somebody give me the command to add a movable camera?
I trying to use : SetCameraPosition( 1, 0, 0, 0 ) instead the default camera and I get a black freezed screen.

Thanks in advance

AGK doesn't impose a limit on the number of objects, but FE doesn't yet have the full 3D command set so it is slightly behind 108 in terms of capabilities.

One thing I noticed from other posts on this forum, is that Firefox is slower than google chrome for some reason, so if you are using firefox, try chrome. 1000 objects is quite a lot to handle though. I know it can slow down with that many sprites in AppGameKit, at least when you take into account collision and other ai stuff.

Yep from what I understand, the real BIG limitation to FE is the browser.. Maybe the max 1000 objects issue is related to firefox (not tested with chrome) but there is yet a browser trying to KILL the FE performances.
The idea behind FE is AMAZING, It's incredible that it working!!
But we have to hope in firefox and chrome programmers about they reach to give us a more stable and optimized browser.
I get a lot of problems and crashes from Firefox...

I've heard that Firefox will be releasing a new Javascript engine called IonMonkey next year which should bring it up to par with Chrome.

I wish Opera would work with it as that is my browser of choice.
