JavaScript Wolfenstein 3D Engine

thanks, but most of those gamers are noting low frame rates, less than 50 fps... while still playable, it's not as smooth as the '07 demo.

That demo is also at a lower resolution than 1600 x 1200.

However, the average frame rate is almost useless, it's the minimum that's important and an absolute minimum of 24FPS on the most demanding demo is perfectly playable. Mostly when you play the game it's far higher than that, but in the middle of a huge firefight when vegetation is being chopped to bit's it's still playable.

PS: I wish most reviewers would note the worst frame rate instead of letting 100FPS in some areas cover for sub 30FPS in others. EX: http://www.guru3d.com/article/palit-geforce-gtx-260-sp216-so...

Good point about min. frame rate.

But is that demo lower than 1600x1200? The Youtube video is; but I don't know about the demo.
