near clipping plane (Wishlist)
near clipping plane // WishlisteepFeb 22, 2001, 12:15pm
Roland told me that the near clipping plane is not exactly flush with the 3D pane because of 3Dfx Voodoo chip compatibility (supposedly they can't handle near clipping planes that close or something). I suggested he make it optional because not everyone has Voodoo chips and even now that 3Dfx is defunct it makes even more sense to make it optional. It's very annoying when using smaller avatars or simply shifting through things to have polygons clipped too soon; it makes it impossible to do any real close detailed inspections of objects (necessary even more since AW3 because there are no viewers compatible with AW3+'s RWX, which is now a propietary format of AW).
