Has anyone here found a practical use for this command? As I understand it, it transfers graphics handling to the CPU.

Couldn't seem to find much on it.

Is there a time when this would be useful?
Have any of you used/do use this command in your DBC programs?

Apparently TGC removed this command from DBP. So just wondering...

Thanks

@WindowsKiller.

Thanks for your explanation

Then there doesn't really seem to be any need to offer the option of "software rendering".

Anyone disagree or have anything to add to what WindowsKiller said?

It was useful to me because my old PC didn't have a graphics card!

A small program that works is better than a large one that doesn't.

Thanks OBese87 I think I will conclude that there isn't really much call for this command now. Since computers have moved on since DBC original release.
