    I wrote this writeup on the Doom rendering engine a few days ago, it details how all the various parts of the rendering engine work together.

    Writing it was actually an educational experience. I had to read through the source to clarify several things which I didnt understand and I've ended up understanding it better than I ever did before.

    Anyway, I hope people find it informative and perhaps helpful. There only seem to be a few people that I've heard of who totally understand how everything works in the Doom engine.

      Well, technically we're both right. My writeup is supposed to be a fairly high level description of the engine, so describing visplanes as built from of vertical strips seems a better point of view. I'll certainly add a note in about it though.

      Goatse and impse are bad enough, but yourse is downright disgusting.
