Hi,

I have a stupid question: do I have to pre-render scores in a game? I ask because I’d like to scale and fade in and out each score. Pre-rendering makes sense if you have to do it once only, right?

Does it take too much resources when pre-rendering each dynamically created scores individually? What are alternatives when performance of a game is important?

Thank you very much in advance for your replies.🙂
