There's currently a bug whereby particle emitters get overculled. Did you notice anything else?
Culling works by frustum culling, occluders, and portalzones. Occluders and Portalzones are not demonstrated in this package, but I will have more info on them later.
Portal and occlusion culling honestly aren't that important, because under most circumstances it is fastest just to chuck everything in the frustum at the graphics card, especially on newer cards. You have to use portals carefully, because they will only make a big difference in certain conditions.
This is pretty near-final. It's definitely usable, and there is a lot more functionality I didn't take the time to make examples for. You can write a lightmapper, for example, or add your own a skeletal animation system, or write a .b3d loader. If it's in the documentation, it works.
Of course I have more features I intend to add like shaders and a built-in animation system, but there's no reason you can't get started now. The demo module times out after 60 seconds, so just order Leadwerks Engine from my site and you'll get the unrestricted module.
