Original source
i am currently trying to disable portal culling - the goal being that parts of the WMO geometry are not culled if portals do not align.
here in green are the parts which are missing in this screenshot.
currently giving IDA a go... i have managed to suspend all but 3 threads:
one is Wow.exe, the main thread, and 2 others which result in halting the rendering if i suspend them
-> my assumption is, that the stuff those 2 threads execute would be at least a starting point to track this thing down.
don't know how i can break specific threads yet though to see where they currently are at, so i am stuck.
any suggestions how to tackle this the best way possible?

those are the 2 threads in question - sub_76FF30 is a subroutine which i can look at.
breakpoints in that exact subroutine don't halt anything, so i assume that the execute takes place somewhere else where the thread already jumped to.

i also did a xrefs_from on that subroutine... most likely executing anywhere in those... is that correct?
