Been banging my head against a really hard wall for a few days while trying to get view frustum culling in my little simple app. I got a lot of sample code that I just needed to plug in and use, so all should be well? Hmm, no, it just doesn't work. The code is ok, but for me it just culls wrong stuff. I've stripped my code down to just render a few lines, and when rotating the scene some lines vanish (get culled) whenthey should, and don't get culled when they should. Frustrating. And I don't want to bother the author either, as he's been so kind already. I need to figure this out for my own sanity!

Civil will soon start progressing again. I'll see what happens today on the list, and unless there's many objections we will go from a realtime engine to a turnbased engine. I already have some code for it, but it needs to be merged in into the "real" Civil tree. It's going to be good to get it rolling again. :)

Played through Baldur's Gate for the PS2 yesterday as the Arcane Archer. Was quite easy, after all. I immediately started a new game as the Magician. Will be fun to see which one is easier to complete. :)
