[Plib-users] Overriding face culling

[Paolo L. <p.l...@ci...>]

Since of too many badly oriented surfaces in a (3DS) dataset I tried to get
help by ssgOverrideCullface, which I expected to override the backface
culling mechanism - i.e. I expected to look at back faces too. It seems not
to work.
Yet the test on
	ssgGetCurrentContext()->cullfaceOverridden());
reflects the different status set through the call to ssgOverrideCullface.

Ok, then I tried this w/o knowing deeply ist meaning
	ssgGetCurrentContext()->setCullface( 0 or 1 );
and the test on
	ssgGetCurrentContext()->cullfaceIsEnabled());
always return 1 (true).

Can anybody explain why? and how to force disabling back face culling?

Thanks && greetings -

Paolo
