Detailed Description

Billboard renderer.

Renders billboards (aka sprites, or screen-aligned textured quads). The only methods you should be interested in are beginBillboards(), endBillboards() and all the put???Bill(). The rest is handled by the engine.

All the put???Bill() methods should be called between beginBillboards() and endBillboards().
