Retarded Question, whats T&L?

thx

short for Transform & Lightning. most newer generation cards have a built-in T&L processor in them, the game has to support it to unlock its full potential tho. evolva, giants and sacrifice are some of the big titles that have some substantial use of T&L.

The transform part converts the pixels from world to screen coordinates.
The lighting part calculates the lighting on the polygons.
