I see the same thing here, I'll fix it. > Btw i have thinked a bit more about the need to update max-min vertices > in drawelements and drawrangeelements and i don't see an easy way to > split the rendering as we have to go throught all indices and make sure > that (max-min)*primsize never need more memory than what dma alloc > can give us. Don't you have similar problem with intel ? No, the i965 has no hardware restrictions on the size of the arrays, and I use texture memory to upload them, so I can allocate arbitarily large amounts. Only in the most extreme cases would I ever have to fail and fallback. Keith ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more?
