Mad Software, Inc.

This benchmark was designed to compare the performance of Mad F/X against some of the leading 3D software applications on the market. These tests are purely based on the applications real-time speeds. We used two seperate and un-modified models from www.MeshFactory.com as benchmarks.

Note: All models are as is and unmodifed. We made every possible attempt to increase each software's speed by testing each available real-time 3D API and enabling TnL and other settings if available to get their highest score. Some 3D software titles were not added as they could not load the model, crashed, or their scores were well below 1 frame/sec so we did not feel we should add them.

Bmw Z8 scene

Our first scene is a complex BMW Z8 car made up of more than 100 objects and more than 576 000 polygons! We wanted to see how other software handled viewing a relatively large model.

Blacksmith scene

Our second scene is a complex Blacksmith's room made up of more than 300 objects and dozens of high-resolution texture maps! We wanted to see how other software handled viewing a scene with many smaller objects and large textures.
