I can't give you comparative figures since when I installed ppracer it
apparently removes tuxracer which I gather is no longer supported. I get
roughly 110 fps on ppracer and around 1515 on glxgears (ATI Radeon 9550
with 256Mb). Since we're on the subject of ppracer. Can anyone tell me
how to get the music to work. The sound effects are fine but they're
.wav files. I installed cheesetracker and checked the music box on the
ppracer config menu (I'm running version 0.3.1) and I can play the .it
files individually in cheesetracker but I need to plug in the
cheesetracker into ppracer. Since no one is complaining about lack of
music, I assume I'm an idiot so could you give me a hint on how to do it?
Thanks,
Jonathan
