i found this usfull function in the code base, that will load a bitmap into a matrix, but when i use it, it really slows down my comp, i am lucky to be getting 10 fps

i have a geforce 2, p4 2ghr, and 512 ddr ram.

is it the function, or what is the problem and how can i fix it? or is there a better way to load a matrix? I used geoscape to make the bitmap, so is there a better way to load a matrix from there?

thanks for any comments posted.

<edit> btw i put the code in the code secion, click button bellow.

hmmm... Make sure you are not calling the function during every loop... other than that, I have no idea...

Yes, otherwise the matrix will be updating every loop - just call the function before the loop

yeah, actuly calling during the loop doesn't work, because it gets a matrix already exists error.
