Is this the problem you're seeing, or is > it something less subtle? I am aware of the flat shading issue, but this is not the problem here. Polygons are rendered using triangles. I use a different hardware primitive for Quads. So after rendering a clipped quad as a polygon (using triangles as hardware primitve) I have to tell the driver that the next primitive is going to be a quad again and that it has to select the right hardware primitive. Without this some quads got rendered as triangles with half the quad missing after a clipped quad was rendered as a polygon. Thinking about it again, this is only a problem with quads, so the calls to PrimitiveNotify after clipped triangles and lines could be removed from the patch. > > Keith ------------ __\|/__ ___ ___ ------------------------- Felix ___\_e -_/___/ __\___/ __\_____ You can do anything, Kühling (_____\Ä/____/ /_____/ /________) just not everything [EMAIL PROTECTED] \___/ \___/ U at the same time. ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: IBM Linux Tutorials.
