Planes?
I want to make 3D planes. Can someone explane it to me using comparisons (i find it easier that way).

Search the forums.

But they are all so complicated. I need it explained in ENGLISH!

Here's the simplest of 2 plane dms ever, alpha blended as well.
x1=x+1;
z1=y-x;
y1=y+x;
x=sign(z1)*y1/z1;
y=x1/z1-sign(z1);
alpha=sqr(z1);

Oooooh the immense difficulty.

A 3D plane is like a giant orange hippo wearing a tutu.
There's no such thing.

I'd hardly call that giant. Unless you have a huge monitor and a puny resolution...

Oh i'd like to see you find a better match :p

...

In a way, god is the biggest orange hippo of all...

and when god walks with tutu, he is "wearing" tutu out...

Sorry, but that's the best I could do.

"We, without God, cannot; God without us, will not," Tutu said, quoting St. Augustine of Hippo.

Right, thanx Raz. But i want to learn more complicated planes, like tunnles for instance (it might not be a plane but it has something to do with it):)
