Particles (point sprites) are drawn as instanced camera-facing squares sized like Direct3D 9's. Fog is by depth buffer value, as Direct3D 9 does with IMVU's projections. At most one frame is queued for display, frames carry the adapter's timestamp so the renderer process logs the delay to presenting, and the log's lines from several processes no longer mix.

The renderer becomes two programs: the adapter (t5deRenderEngine.dll, 32-bit, in IMVU's process) and a 64-bit renderer process (t5de-renderer.exe) drawing with Diligent Engine, fetched with FetchContent and pinned. For now a spike: the adapter starts the renderer process for each engine and signals each frame through a shared memory channel, and the renderer process draws a box into a child window in the client's 3D view.
