&gt; 
&gt; 	Which happily (though assembly isnt bad) is not much anymore.  Now
&gt; it seems to be making sure you only send the rasterizer x many triangles

&gt; and sort the triangles based on what texture they are.

That's comforting :)

&gt; 
&gt; 	There are a couple that seem ok.  The only thing is usually they
&gt; are indoor engines.

I was thinking space based...mostly black..with ships/planets etc
in the foreground.  I'll give these guys a look and see what I can see.

&gt; 
&gt; 	With genesis it seems you get a lib to link to with crystal you
&gt; get complete source.  Im looking at implementing a landscape engine and
&gt; possibly include it into crystal spaces portal based technology (or
&gt; creating my own indoor engine...).
