look, I use ghost object on ?,1 and it work well when the matrix is behind, but when there's an object behind ( my sky is a big sphere ), look what it do : it doesn't draw my object anymore. I looked at my code, and there isn't any error, so I think that it's mybe a bug with the command ghost object on.
What do you think about that ?

I'm afraid I can't see what's wrong

Can you post a pic with it working properly?

There is a problem with ghosted objects not displaying correctly when they overlap. I think patch 4 will fix this problem.

David89, it's easy to see, look at the bottom of the crystal : it doesn't stop there, the sky sphere cut it :/

Darth Shader, it's for when the patch 4 ? I heard some good things about it

Patch 4 will probably be released around the last week of Feburary or early March. I know that the bug is fixed because I have the beta.

I got this trying to convert my old Breakout 3D prog to DBPro, the odd thing is that it does not seem to do it all the time.

Never found a work around either, I had to add a 'Ghost ON/OFF' option, so we`ll just have to wait for release 4 (assuming it is fixed in that).

"assuming it is fixed in that"

It is fixed in Beta 1 and I doubt that they will unfix it for Beta 2
