Codecult, a Phenomedia Group company, announced the release of a new 3D graphics benchmark based on their CodeCreatures 3D engine. The game development system was recently presented at the Game Developers Conference in San Jose, California. Broad acception among reknown developers has sparked Codecult to release this benchmark.
The Codecreatures benchmark is written with Microsoft's DirectX 8.1 API and incorporates the use of Vertex and PixelShaders popular on next generation 3D accelerators. The benchmark plays a photo-realistic nature scene and calculates the performance of the graphics adapter by measuring the fps that it can display at 1024x768, 1280x1024 and 1600x1200 resolutions. The score is a geometric mean of those three resolutions called the Codecreatures number.
