let me ask some stupid questions (I KNOW there is no such thing but I got to ask anyway):

Is this "fake shading" like using the fatboy shading idea with Milkshape or is this true DirectX shading?

Does it affect the FPS?

There, that ought to do it. You might ask why I would be interested, well I'm a "toon" kind of guy: http://www.newrev7.com/indexblog.html
