Mine too, just slow some times
We used to put goggles or motorcycle helmets on for eye protection and have wars around the office with rubber-bands firing these bent plastic binding prongs (used in specification books) at each other. One day, Frank (the big cheese) was in his office where one of these things went whizzing through the gap in his sliding glass door... I think it scared him, " that could have put the clients wifes eye out" he said. We thought he was making a mountain out of a mole hill. That was a different world, am quite grown up now, almost!
Transparent windows in open gl? I put glass in and rely on the line created around the edges, or produce a photo render to show the clients in an email or print.
are you actually able to get it to be translucent? dont
I hope shades, shadows, & textures aren't to far away there, its a great place though even without.
I find myself always having to move the sun around, my only gripe there.
Would be nice to be able to have the sun fixed relative to the camera as you moved around.

That was merely a pun, since graphics card makers say their products are for "gaming." That is just how my mind works. Or doesn't. No wonder I can't keep a job. Imagine me in YOUR office. Once the rubber-band-on-the-architect's-scale war and the t-square hockey tournament was over, THEN the jokes would start.
Seven is good in dice, i think.
Never thought about the "Risk" aspect. However, I do notice that ArchiCAD fails to write code to take advantage of just about every gamer card's trick - even transparency in OpenGL, an easy trick anywhere else, still requires a cheap Atkinson trick for transparent windows in OpenGL rendering.
In the old days, 8Mg was enough to drive a 21" display. Scrolling a drawing was slow. When OpenGL arrived, the sky was the limit. What will they do with 1024 mg?
