Hi All,
Hope you're all doing well. During the run up to and during Christmas I've been doing my usual tinkering around with WinApe and managed to build a FPS counter. Ever since I saw something similar in CPCTelera I always wanted to create one myself. I've included a YouTube video of it. The first version of this used the firmware call to print the FPS value but, I noticed that as there were multiple calls to this (for each digit) that attributed to almost 12us of time, which I'm sure knocked a few FPS off. I then decided to scrap the &BB5A call and instead put together my own mini bitmap font and use that. That roughly reclaimed ~20fps taking it from ~140 to ~169. Anyway, the video is attached if you fancy taking a look. FYI - The first part shows unrestricted and the second with vsync enabled.
Thanks

Hi,
Sorry, I've been rather busy with a work project and haven't had time to do anything else. I'll see what I can do over this weekend. Do you want it with my custom font or shall I strip that and use the standard inbuilt CPC font?
