D3D/OSD Histogram

The OSD Histogram
Chart pinpoints the
Z-axis range upon
which 3D objects ap-
pear as well as how they
gather. For example, if
the above chart (simu-
lated) was displayed for
a car racing game, the
vertices to the left of the E line could be the model of the game player’s car, and
those objects to the right of the E line could be the road, houses, other cars or trees
in front of the car.
So, with this information, the user may:
• Adjust embossment by moving the E line.
• Adjust foreground/background, thus stretching out the histogram to make
objects more evenly distributed.
NOTE: Using the histogram chart requires games using Direct3D

6.0 or earlier.
