I want to dabble with 3D in AGKStudio. Is there anything similar to delta timing but for 3D?

How do you guys keep your 3D apps running at the same speed on different hardware configs?

Thanks.

Why should delta timing in 3D work differently than in 2D?

Just move an object ( 2D sprite, 3D Mesh, or whatever you want to move ) x units every y milliseconds...

Thanks. I assumed a different setup was needed for physics based 3d or standard 3d.

Nope,

even if you use 3D physics, you don't need to worry about speed.
There's a 3D physics command named Step3DPhysicsWorld() for that.

Help:
"Call before the Sync() command at the bottom of the loop. This will step the physics world. Keeps physics constant regardless of framerate. Not calling this command will pause the physics world action."
