Hello - I have been searching everywhere the last several days for info on projective texturing. I can''t seem to find ANYTHING! I would appreciate it if someone could explain in depth how to accomplish this in Direct3D and provide source code demonstrating the process. The main problem I am having is projecting a texture from somewhere other than the camera. Thanks for your help. - DXMan

the only way i got projective texturing going in d3d was with vertex shaders. it was a long time ago and i lost the code to it, but i still know how to do it.
im thinking of writing a tutorial on it since this topic does come up a fair bit and not many people have an answer for it.

If you go to the Nvidia developer site you can find several articles and code samples there.

The RadeonSpotlightShadow demo helped me out a whole lot! (Thanks, nlo)
Syrillix, thanks for your help as well. You should make a tutorial because it doesn''t come up alot.
