I would like to know if there's a way to do a kind of edge-detection overlay on your 3d graphics to get a kind of 'cartoony outline' effect. Has anyone got any examples or has had experience doing this sort of thing before? Can it be done real-time, or is it only for pre-rendered animations?

Look for articles on cell shading, think there are a couple of examples in the code archives or you could google the old blitzcoder site.

Wow! I never realised that you could get a list of the codearc contributions of a particular author... Might save some search time if I could only rememeber who makes all the cool stuff !
