2-3 Software Processes


2-3-1 Library Process


Graphics library functions interpret the image data, create the display list and transfer the display list to RSP in the RCP.



2-3-2 Graphics Microcode Process


Graphics microcode transferred from RDRAM to the RSP performs image transformations in the RSP.



2-3-3 Application Process


The game application itself sets up the RCP and controls the image drawing process by specifying such things as image placement and special effects.
