I downloaded and tried out the P.E.Op.S. plugin and it runs great now both the sound and the video have no slow down the only problem is that while P.E.Op.S. makes the sprite characters in FFT look great (they look animated) the 3d backgrounds look messed up. They look very grainy and fuzzed over. The quality w/ the background is much different than with Pete's Open Gl

I don't know if it is my settings (the settings in P.E.Op.S. are much different than in Open Gl) are something else

thanks
