How can I improve the performance of Shockwave 3D games like: 3D Battle Ball, or Sun Runner?
These games require the use of a video card that supports DirectX or openGL. Depending on the OS you are using, changing the 3D renderer can greatly improve performance. If you are using a Mac, then you are limited to OpenGL. On Windows computers however, you can choose either openGL or DirectX. During the game you can right-click on the screen and change these settings yourself to see what works best. Here’s an example: Choose properties from the Shockwave right-click menu. install shockwave dialog box Try out all of the available renderer’s to see which one works best for you.
