Optimising for Intel and their ilk
I spent most of today trying to speed up the 'choose game' screen' for Democracy 2. This part of the game runs slowly and several people have mentioned it.
The thing is, it runs between 165 and 300 FPS on my machine.
So after a days fiddling it now runs between 250 and 800 FPS on my machine.
I just hope this means it goes faster than it used to on those crappy low end 'cards' they put in laptops.
Text rendering is SLOWWWWWWWWWWWW.
At least the way I do it (with fancy spacing) is.
