I'm working on a scrolling system (which will hopefully become a game), and my target frame rate is 60fps (at least on a 206Mhz iPaq, rendering a 240x240 area).
Early tests make that look very possible. (So why do most games, even simple ones, run at 30 or less?)
My screen scrolls very smoothly, but some quite nasty vertical tearing is occuring
Is there any way to sync the screen flips with the vertical blank? Surely there is a vertical blank (there is on the GBA...) - Is there any way to wait for it?
(even nasty, hardware-specific hacks would be useful?)
