It's just the regular old ARB multitexture extension. That particular extension supports (somebody correct me if I'm wrong) between 2 and 8 texture units. All cards except the original Radeon only have 2 texture units. The Radeon has 3. Back on 17-May-2000 John said in a .plan that "games that do a significant number of rendering passes on the entire world may go back in ATI's favor if they can use the third texture unit, but I doubt it will be all that common." However, he never said if it would be common in id games. :) -- Tell that to the Marines! _______________________________________________ Dri-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/dri-devel
