[casual_games] Zinc framerate

[Dennis - I Sioux]

Hey Olivier,

Are you using the full version?
And also.. did you update the latest builder.. and if you update you latest 
plugins.. make sure you delete the old onces first.. because the updating 
doesn't work that great.. best is to do a complete cleanup.

It should be up to 95% of normal speed atleast.. but in most cases we don't 
see any difference at all anymore.
Mdm's blog about this beeing resolved: http://www.multidmedia.com/blog/?p=23

Greetz,

Dennis
Isioux

P.s. I've changed the topic to keep it clean :)
