: Dunno if this is the culprit: your ATI Rage 128 Ultra (2x AGP) graphics
: acceleration with 16 MB of SDRAM.
Hmmmn. 16mb. Uhh, nah, it's only loading about 12mb of textures. Oh, but the display lists probably take up... let's see... maybe...
Well, if it IS that, perhaps replace the textures with lower-res versions, and to cut the display list size (at the cost of less smooth animation) add 'PrefsFrameSkipFactor x' where x is a number 1 to anything, higher numbers than 2 or 3 made the animations look like slideshows. :/
: Only thing I can think of is updating to OSX.3.9 (which shouldn't be too
: costly with Tiger newly released) and even then the vram stays the same
: offcourse (so that might not help at all).
: The loading of e0 on mac goes: black screen starts, hover mouse above,
: textures flash by, bit of a wait on more black, started (with you looking
: at the ceiling).
Umm, the models should flash by too (in wireframe). But perhaps Tyler should run the program from the console and post the result.
