Howdy,

Is there a way to get my joints to draw in front of the polygon mesh like the bones do? Right now I'm using BaseDraw::Line3D() and BaseDraw::Circle3D() to draw them. Drawing them in different draw passes will work, but only for the one that is active.

I had thought of converting to screen coordinates and using to BaseDraw::Line2D() but then the BaseDraw::Circle2D() doesn't draw the circles in 3D (there are three circles to outline a spherical shape).

I notice the R9 SDK has some new drawing functions: LineNew() and CircleNew(), but there are no examples on exactly how to use them so I don't know if those would be able to do it?

Any ideas?

Adios,
Cactus Dan
