   HAPPY NEW YEAR...
  HAPPY NEW YEAR to everybody at GameDev(even the DirectX guys :-))))))))))))))).Let this year be a very good for game/demo/... development.And now me and some other guys(my friends i guess) have a question.We think of it just after 24.00 on 31/12/02.I guess the wine/whisky and so on helped us but here is the question:What is the life''s framerate???I may looks stupid but it''s very hard to answer.I just want to say that we are NOT JOKING.It''s a very serious question and i will be happy if i read some theory about it.Bye!    The PAIN is coming...this summer!!!In cinemas everywhere.  
  there is a physical smallest unit for time (well, measurable smallest unit)there is the framerate of our eyes, about 24times per second (but captures not only a frame, but a time slice actually => pc games need more frames to look smooth)there is a psychological framerate of 3 seconds, wich is quite funny to play with, once you know it. (just watching peoples reacting in 3seconds steps, etc, makes fun while you''re bored:D)wich one you wanted? or any other framerate? the ear has another framerate, 44khertz i think..well, thats about it..happy new year to you, too, you posted in the wrong forum..    "take a look around" - limp bizkitwww.google.com  ;  Unfortunately it''s a nonsensical question.Assuming that the world does operate on atomic timesteps, the timestep would presumably be the Planck time (10^-43 sec), which is considered the ultimate granularity of time.The framerate (or rather, the update rate) would therefore be 10^43 FPS.However, it''s not clear what the maximum framerate is that our eyes can perceive; I would bet that it''s not 10^43! This is probably down to trans-retinol as the limiting factor; any biologist care to expand?Anyway, hope that helps, and happy new year ;  Well...i though that the question is simple but...it''s now.I ment the frames per second of the life.If you want to hear my opinition i''ll give it to you.I think that the frames must be more that the frames given by something else.For example the fps rate of QUAKE III on my machine is 100 frames therefor the life''s framerate must be more than that.I''m also agree with the opinion that if we can''t see more than ~24 tics per sec than this is tha maximum.But when i think that this is just a biological limit and there can be other answers to this question...man it''s weard.Well if anyone else wants to say something please.You know...i''ll be more than happy to hear!Bye The PAIN is coming...this summer!!!In cinemas everywhere.
