Hi all, new to the forums so i'm sorry if this has been covered before but i couldn't find anything in the search function. i'm a final year student at uni and doing my dissertation on shadow detection, at the moment i'm slowly creating my 3D scene and have decided to use c++ with directX9. so far ive got a very simple scene rendered: a floor created using the vertex buffer (specifying vertices and normals) a cube created using D3DXCreateBox (placed ontop of the floor) and a spot light source i have just started using hardware vertex processing to help make the scene look a little more realistic and give better shading but since doing so the 2nd of the triangles 'flickers' when the camera is moved has odd shading applied to it, all in all it just looks wrong, the 1st is fine however. was wondering if anyone knew what might cause this problem? thanks EDIT--- heres a picture of whats happening http://img3.freeimagehosting.net/uploads/923c0f1487.jpg [Edited by - Darksi on March 3, 2008 12:02:25 PM]
