The company More3D develops 3D stereo software and tools. Historically the more3D core developer team comes from the ELSA AG. They now published a benchmark tool (somewhat similar to Fraps) based on their 3D stereo technology which allows to capture the framerate and polygon throughput in any Direct3D application and also offers a graphical curve output.

Unreal II with active moreBENCH LX controlpanel - currently running between 76 and 36 fps !

moreBENCH LX benchmark revolutionizes 3D benchmarking. Gamers, developers and professionals can now display their software performance and even analyze the performance over time ! No need to run dedicated applications, but use the latest 3D software on your graphics hardware !

Supports WindowsXP Home, WindowsXP Professional and Windows 2000
Will benchmark any Direct3D based full screen application
Graphical display of :
- Frames per second (FPS)
- Primitives per second (PPS)
Display of minimum and maximum values of each parameter
Adjustable graph scale
VSYNC on/off hotkey

The benchmark will be provided as freeware and "as is" ! more3D will provide NO SUPPORT but provide a discussion forum accessible for registered users to share ideas and receive help about the moreBENCH software. There will be a professional version later for use by EDITORS or DEVELOPERS or other professionals aith added features and options in a few months.

Placed between VGA driver and application the benchmark tool can catch all 3D-calls and measures the data. The output gives you avg/min/max values of the framerate and the Polygon throughput. The tool is available as freeware. You can download it on the website of More3D or visit their new web-forums .
