if we are going to billboard a quad must it always be drawn at the origin, translated and then billboard or can we also billboard a quad at any position for example a particle. I don''t want to call translate 1000 times! thanks in advance

the problem isnt calling translate a thousand times, the problem would be, that this way you would have to draw every single billboard seperately which would be slow. instead you should do those updates yourself and have them in one big array that you can draw in one go.
