hi!

i'm trying to port my little 3dengine from dos to yaroze.  But my 3dengine
heavily relies on a very simple 'draw_triangle ()' function, which I can't
seem to find on the yaroze libraries.

so i was hoping that someone would tell me how i can get the playstation to
draw a simple two-dimensional triangle for me.

note that i said *two-dimensional* ie all the matrix transformations hace
already taken place, and the traingles fed into this function would be *in
screen coordinates*.

the only idea i have so far is to basically add the new triangle to an OT
every time it's called.  This is somewhat hard because i don't know how OTs
are organised.  Okay so they're just pointing to a list of packets...but
what are these packets anyway? what are they like 'inside'?

please, i really need this info.

i'm new to his yaroze thing so please do excuse me if i'm missing something
out :-D

thanks for reading,
