Re: [Nel] Creating a 3d sim style game with Nel - possible?

[Mike Stoddart]

Ryzom is being developed using Nel? You're kidding? Those screenshots are 
absolutely amazing!

One question though; how good is Nel's performance? I tried the Snowball 
demo, but I think I got no more than 23fps. Hopefully Ryzom is more 
efficient than that. If so, why the low performance in Snowballs?

Thanks
Mike
