But it is faster

Yes it will

What I did was replace the "Repeat whatever" with a for loop to make it draw 100 frames. Then I timed it and divided 100 by the time I got. |

How do you measure the amount of FPS?
I let the game run for 30 seconds, and then check the amount of A, X or S (depending on what variable is used)
My game does 195 frames in 30 seconds, and kevins game does 212. That means mine does about 6.5 fps, and kevind's game 6.7 (approximately). I think this method makes the framerate slower, cuz kevin says he had 8 fps, and when guessing my speed, i thought it was 7.5 fps (cuz it is a bit slower). The game i measured is a bit different from the game i posted, cuz my RAM was cleared once again. |

| Just put in an A+1->A inside the loop, Delvar A before the beginning, and divide A by 60 after running for a minute. |

kevin's game already has A+1->A in the loop, so i just used that A. My game uses X in the For loop, so i used the X to check for the framerate. I had to modify the games so i was invincible, because i can't possible survive for 30 seconds , so it's not that accurate. |

| Holy Christ it was a joke. I haven't had Windows crash since I wrote an asm prog that accidentally poked to 0A00:0000. Now apologize. |

Well, yes, but the IS>( loop is more versatile. |
