Occlusion query sample
This sample gives a quick overview of how to perform geometry occlusion queries in MDX. For more information on occlusion queries, please refer to . The sample only performs the query on a single object using a Render to Texture pass to show how it can be done, you'll have to implement the actual culling yourself.

Shadow Volumes on the CPU (fixed function, zpass)
This sample project shows how to construct a shadow volume from a mesh for the ZPass shadow volume rendering technique. This approach is probably the simplest you can get, but it demonstrates the basics of the technique and it will even run on an ATI Radeon Mobility 9000. for more information on shadow volumes.
