====== Let's do some VIS benchmarking ======

==== Setup and execution ====
//All links here point to mirrors at Quaddicted to prevent link-rot.//

Download [[/filebase/gmsp3.zip|gmsp3.zip]] and extract it. Make a copy of the gmsp3v2.bsp file.

Download [[/files/tools/visbjp.zip|visbjp.zip]] and extract it. Run
  * ''Bspinfo.exe -prt gmsp3v2.bsp''
 
<WRAP center round todo 60%>
This is important: Between each Vis tool you have to restore the original gmsp3v2.bsp file. To do that remove the generated gmsp3v2.bsp file and recreated it by making a copy of the copy you made earlier. If you do not do this, funky errors will happen.
</WRAP>

Choose any VIS tool you like and run a level 4 VIS with it. At the moment [[https://ericwa.github.io/ericw-tools/|ericw-tools]] should be the most reasonable choice.

  * ''vis.exe -level 4 gmsp3v2.bsp''

Then add your times and information about your processor to the table below. If you are running with a non-standard frequency, please make that bold. Please add entries ordered by time. The top entry should be the fastest.

* denotes entries where we ran tyrann's vis without specifying "-level 4". It did not use that by default.

WVis always rounds to full minutes.
