render transparent and opaqueobject
Author
I want to render tree with leaf and branch, leaves are transparent triangles and branches are opaque. In the tree's mesh, leaves belong to attributeSet 1 while branches belong to attributeSet 2. How to render the tree correctly?
I render it in the order: first render all branches then render all leaves with no sorting,but there generated picture is not right.
This is the wrong forum for technical questions - but you would generally draw opaque parts first (drawing near triangles first, but this is not hugely important).
You would then draw the translucent polygons from far to near (to ensure correct rendering)

That's the thing you should expect when you work with realtime computer graphics. Always something won't look right. But you will usually have 2 choices - leave it or fix it, the second choice takes a lot of time (both to implement and to execute the fixed drawing code) to do so you will mostly use the first one.

draw the translucent polygons from far to near, DX supply sort function or do it myself?
