Hello pfPeople,
        there piled up some rather easy question because I am
still new to Performer. Hopefully you will help me, in spite.

1. What does a pfMatrix consist of ? I already learned that the
   third row is the actual position but all the other value are
   still a mystery to me. Can anybody explain it for a
   non-mathematics ?
   {{ ?, ?, ?, ?},
    { ?, ?, ?, ?},
    { x, y, z, ?},
    { ?, ?, ?, ?}}

2. Why do some alphatextures (no billboards) hide geometry behind it
   viewed from certain arcs (less 30 degrees) ? How can I workaround ?

3. Where can I get the Performer 2.2 CDs ? Which e-mail do I need to
   send my request to ? I am still working with v2.0.2.

4. Is it possible to reduce the color depth of an PWindow for less
   data through the network when working with a rlogin ?

Thanks in advance, Stefan.
