Single 1 sided face

Can we have planes as primitives? Even an individual triangle would be nice. I know that it is fast to draw things as primitives, but sometimes you just want a plane. That might be faster than a box, especially if you want a lot of them.

I think the fact that we have to use subtraction to even get a PRISM kind of indicates that there's a few things we could do with.

I agree though, 2D primitives would be handy. What are you using it for, if you don't mind my asking? I might be able to help you out with getting it to work another way.

I was just going to make some flowers and such. I would just make a face for them and use an alpha texture for the flowers. It just seems expensive to use a prism for it. (Especially if I were making a lot of them.)
Another thing that I was thinking about was making an audience for a colluseum or something. A collection of animated textures that are placed strategically could give a nice illusion of an active crowd without a lot of polygons. (Of course you pay the price with alpha textures and overdraw.)

Right now, I have decided to start out small. A collection of flowers will be a nice start.
