thank you both for the help you gave me, im still getting only 30 fps durring battles so im going to swich to pete's gl (the orriginal one if i understand corectly) and use kaine's domain's settings. thank you and if you think im doing the wrong thing be sure to speak up!

what drivers are you using? try using some sort of Forceware in the 5x.xx area.

I have a similar problem , framebuffer is a beast.

If you can't solve it in other way try by setting Framebuffer effects to NO FB effect, but this will not make the Battle Swirl draw .

You can use as an alternative the Software PEOPS plugin , with that the speed is good at low resolution and the swirl is emulated quite good too

Bye
