Is this possible???

And if so, did you realize that it was? I was over purusing the code at Nopaste ( *great* site btw ) when I came across this listing. The source appears to be writing directly to memory. Conceptually this makes sense, but I've never done anything qui... |

Here's something. If you change the method name for an event handler ( by putting a new name in for the old one under it's properties ) , a new mehod body is added. The only thing that seems strange is that the old one remains ( I thou... |

Implementing 2D bump maps - is this correct?
