Quick question about rendering triangles

Hi folks,

is there a function like the glbegin and glend function where you can put the triangles in between or is the drawarray the only function to do so?

greets ghoti

Check the cube sample that comes with the Sdk.

It shows the exact process to render.

Nope there is no support for glBegin or glEnd in pspgu, but they are implemented on pspgl but they are very slow.

How are they 'very' much slower? It really depends on what your trying to render and the overall size, right? Also, since were on the matter real quick, doesnt PSPGL use the same SendCommand() function to send commands to the GPU, just as the GU does? If so, then the only explanation for a slower rendering process would be the routines OpenGL uses compared to the main GU... ? Gahhhh... Someone please answer all these questions.

nope glbegin and glend are emulated and very slow.
