Graphics / Re: Drop in FPS after using draw() on two or more sprites

Figured it out, and I feel like a bit of an idiot.

Update my GFX drivers (hadn't updated since changing OS) and that fixed it -- running perfectly with 60FPS. Regarding the 'static' declaration -- it was just a temporary set up to handle textures and sprites across multiple methods.

Thanks for the response.

Graphics / Drop in FPS after using draw() on two or more sprites

« on: December 23, 2012, 09:56:50 pm »

Hello,

First of all, I'm finding SFML to be an excellent API -- but I seem to be having FPS / performance issues.

FPS is fine (60) when drawing one sprite -- adding another sprite reduces it to about 50, another sprite reduces it again and so on and so on.

The relevant code:-

Declaration of Texture and Sprite:

static Texture platformTexture;
static Sprite platformSprite;

Drawing:-

window->draw(platformSprite);

I'm using SFML 2 and am on 64-bit Windows 8.

Thanks in advance!
