Re: A85: At the risk of losing you...
is there some reason why you can't keep the vertices stored in their
original location? i would think that you could make a routine the
takes the address of the number of vertices followed by a list of
vertices (say in hl) and does the vector math (rotation, translation,
etc) to those points. then, for drawing the faces, i guess you would
need to convert the x,y,z coordinates into x,y coordinates that can
then be drawn with a line routine or polygon routine. you could use a
static area of memory for x1,y1 and x2,y2 if you are using a line
routine to draw each line individually. but if you are going to use a
polygon drawing routine, you would need to have enough space for that
polygon in memory.
