I have no idea. I doubt it. Paul?

I've never seen an exmaple of what trueform can do. That's quite amazing. I don't think its possible for us to use it, but I'll keep it in mind.

Applying TRUFORM Technology
One thing to note is that TRUFORM technology is not ATI specific by any means: it is ATI's implementation of N-Patch technology included in Microsoft's DirectX 8 and OpenGL. It was put here for a reason- N-Patching allows a whole new visual world to be entered.

On the programing side, applying TRUFORM technology to a new or existing game actually only requires one line of code: the rest of done in the T&L part of ATI's chip. Also, since the character and scene information remains the same using TRUFORM or not, no new characters or scenes need be modeled.

This creates a very interesting application to TRUFORM technology, and one that will surely gain the attention of many. Since TRUFORM uses the information that is already there to make games look better, it can be applied to every 3D game on the market. This means that everything you currently play has the potential to look better on a card with TRUFORM technology.

Now my doubt. The openglide uses opengl right, but wich version, the equivalent to directx 6?
T&L was introduced in directx 7...

I want to believe!

I think its too late by the time that OpenGl (or Glidos) get into the picture. They just receive Glide commands that paint triangles. The actual 3D position is lost.

I'm afraid, Glidos is right about that.
I tried it some times ago with the openglide-sources and it didn't do nothing...

I was searching opengl.org forum and found this

glEnable(GL_PN_TRIANGLES_ATIX);
glPNTrianglesiATIX(GL_PN_TRIANGLES_TESSELATION_LEVEL_ATIX, preferredLevelOfTesselation);

and this

since glidos autor programed openglide can he implement this funcion?

Didn't I say, I already tried this to no avail?
