I'm making a game, not a DOOM or QUAKE clone, and I thought about using 
Allegro's internal 3d routines for some of the graphics.  Unfortunately, it 
seems that the 3d stuff is hideously slow.  Is it just my system?  I set up a 
FPS counter and it read about 48 FPS at the lowest in 640x480 screen res with 
eight cubes rotating on the screen, but they still looked jumpy.  If anyone 
has made anything of worth using the Allegro 3d functions... can I take a look 
at it?  Maybe I'm forgetting to set up some variable, or am I just wasting my 
time, and should go make my own lib.  Any thoughts?
