What''s the point of fps? ---------- Windows is superior to Macs!!! ----------

FPS = first person shooter?
FPS = frames per second?
FPS = fish per sea?

Perhaps you could clarify the question ...

Florida Psychiatric Association ?
Functional Performance Structure ?
Frames Per Second ?
First Person Shooter ?

Anyways, the answer is 42.

Shoot the fucking women? :-P

Well first you must understand what a frame is, have you ever watched a movie, well you should know how the movie is made up of a bunch of Still pictures(The average movie runs at about 35 Frames Per Second) and if you still don''t understand what frames are go get a flip book(each page would be a frame)

Now in order to create the illusion of animation you must have enough Frames in a second, and the more frames in a second the smoother the animation, But in computer games all the processing is also done in frames but that is a tail for another day.

But would it be any different if you just had a loop without the fps?
