If you're rendering a mesh of triangles representing a surface and don't want to mess with *p*nGL, I'd suggest Allegro's polygon routines (note: they don't currently use hardware accel). Get the latest work in progress; it's no less stable (and a bit more capable) than 3.12. -- Damian Yerrick "I refuse to listen to those who refuse to listen to reason."
