[Papervision3D] New material demos : Cell shading and more.

[Ralph Hauwert]

The amount of color steps has no impact what so ever on the
performance. It's a matter of artistic freedom and maybe even Collada
compliance ;-)

The silioiutetee ( I am stopping trying to spell that word); is faked.
The black edge on the horse is actually not the "real" way you should
implement this. That would involve a very processor intensive
calculation over all vertexes at every transform.

The faking manifests itself on the fact it actually only renders the
outlines of the object. Rendering these things for real would mean
that also in the surface of the object you would get nice little
outlines.

Don't get me wrong, this is something I will pursue. But due the cpu
usage of such a routine it is low on my prio list.

Ralph.
