get www.fraps.com,  check the fps you're getting, if they're not in the range of 1-2, enable vsync on your graphics card.

Fedor, have you got DF running at the same time? Try closing DF and running the visuliser separately if that's the case and report back...

I tried all of the suggested solutions and compatibility mode worked the best of any.  Thanks, all!

the map exporter script nukes the df process priority to idle, so that shouldn't be a problem. as long as it's run of course. ^^

v04 runs for my work laptop as described above as well (it's an older ATI card).  I'll try compatibility mode...

Oh yeah, there we go.  Working much better now.  Give me a minute and I'll post some screenshots of my fortress in progress.

Thank you for this wonderful program. Is it somehow possible to render a whole DF-world in 3D?

You mean using the legends export tool? Might be interesting...

There are some really sweet constructions on here, guys!  This visualizer rocks.

I just had to take a snapshot of this moment in 3d!

All I can say is WOW.  

I can't even stand building a pump tower. Let alone that monstrosity.  That supposed to be a sink faucet?

It is just a water tower in progress.

It's going to be part of the water main that powers the main part of my underground fortress yet to be built.

I just wanted to dump some water while I could, and see what it looked like in 3d.
