Has anyone used this for the purpose of occlusion culling and had it work for them?
I must be doing something wrong because it drops me from 70FPS (Frustum Culling only, 10,000 objects) to 1FPS and only half works (only one block works as an occlusion culler). If there is a better method for occlusion culling, please let me know. This appears to work well when used correctly, but I'm not sure how to correctly use it.... and I find Microsoft's reference guide to be useless for learning.
