If I remember correctly OpenGL internally has a limit to the number of items it can hold in it's display list. When the list gets full it's starts drawing rather than dropping your items. To achieve this it flips the buffers and draws the remaining items on the live screen.
If I am remembering correcly this could explain what you are seeing. -- Ruchard On Oct 3, 8:08 pm, Jeremy Slade <[email protected]> wrote: > I'm trying to clean up some rendering issues for a 3D game -- > CowPotato (http://www.cyrket.com/package/ > com.froogloid.android.cowpotato).
