I've managed to migrate the tree shaders to Rembrandt. Pretty straightforward - thanks for the good instructions and examples. I've checked in an update to git, but this morning realized that I'd made a mistake in the effect file (tree.eff) in allowing both non-Rembrandt and Rembrandt versions to co-exist. Specifically I've created two techniques with the same n= value, so the Rembrandt version is being over-written by the non-Rembrandt version. I won't get the chance to fix this until after the weekend, but in the meantime at least the Rembrandt performance problems with random vegetation should be resolved. -Stuart ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Better than sec?
