Animation appears to studder? How do you set a frame rate?

[EvilDingo]

Hey again, I'm animating an image across the screen. My problem is, it seems to studder as it moves across the screen. This gets more pronounced the faster I move the image. Is there any way to get nice smooth animation? I'm using the DirectX animation example as my guide but it doesn't seem to be fixing the problem. Should I create a separate thread for setting the frame rate? That's really what I'm looking for. Some way to syncronize the framerate. Thanks, EvilDingo

have you tried looking into double buffering? or maybe vsynch? i havent done any work with directx, but those two things are prolly what you'll need.. still a newb.. cut me some slack :P -dz
