Re: Xash3D (HL1 engine clone) for Android

I have compiled a former version of Xash3D under windows/PC and tried it.

Sorry, I did not understand
origin can be any point lying on the plane, which you can find using the plane equation ( for example by setting x and y and computing z for a non vertical plane).

Shifting their supporting planes does not work if the face and its plane have opposite normals, which cannot be always avoided.
