+Xbox D3D Drawing is performed via 4 Draw*Vertices* API's (and a few other cases, described below);
+
+All 4 Draw*Vertices* API's have the two arguments (D3DPRIMITIVETYPE PrimitiveType, UINT VertexCount). Additionally:
+* One API has a StartVertex argument
+* Two draw using indices, and for that have an additional "index data" argument
+* Two draw using a 'User Pointer', and for that have additional "stream zero" arguments
+
+The vertex data required for drawing, is either read from up to 16 VertexBuffers (as set by the SetStreamSource API),
+or for the User Pointer (UP) draws, read directly from the supplied Stream Zero pointer (and stride).
+
+Vertex data is composed of 1 up to 16 attributes, as defined in a vertex declaration.
+Each attribute declaration specifies the StreamSource index from which the attribute data is read.
+(User Pointer draws are only allowed to read from stream index zero, which will use the supplied pointer, not actually stream zero!)
+
+The order vertices are drawn in, is either:
+* sequential, for regular draws (starting at the first vertex, or for DrawVertices at the specified StartVertex offset into the vertex buffer),
+* or according to the specified IndexData (which allows re-using vertices and drawing subsets of available vertices in the given buffer)
+
+```

+    D3DDevice_DrawVertices          (UINT StartVertex)

+(In the rest of this text, the "D3DDevice_" prefix is sometimes left out for terseness.)
+
+
+Xbox also supports immediate drawing, using one D3DDevice_BeginPush call, a D3DDevice_SetVertexData* call per vertex and one D3DDevice_EndPush API call.
+Similar to the other Xbox D3D API's, these API's "push" commands and data towards the Xbox GPU (called NV2A) to perform drawing.
+
+( As an optimization, most of these "push buffer commands" generated by Xbox D3D API's can be recorded and replayed back to the NV2A.
+Even though playing back these pre-recorded push buffers may require "fixups", it's still faster than repeating the original D3D API's.)
+
+
+Most drawing-related commands on NV2A are part of the so-called Kelvin Primitive (or Object, as there's many objects on NV2A - Kelvin has code NV097).
+
+Kelvin Commands that are used for drawing (with their data arguments) :
+* NV097_SET_BEGIN_END : Initializes the PrimitiveType to draw, and triggers the draw once all data was send
+* NV097_SET_VERTEX[_DATA_][2|3|4][F|F_M|S|S_M|UB] : Updates current attribute data (by the various SetVertexData API's)
+* NV097_SET_VERTEX_DATA_ARRAY_FORMAT : Sets the format of attribute data stored in vertex buffer memory
+* NV097_SET_VERTEX_DATA_ARRAY_OFFSET : Sets the starting memory address (and stride) for each attribute in the vertex buffer
+* NV097_DRAW_ARRAYS : Supplies count and starting vertex index in the active vertex buffers
+* NV097_INLINE_ARRAY : Supplies attribute data of the vertices to be drawn
+* NV097_ARRAY_ELEMENT[16|32]
+
+D3DDevice_DrawVertices
+* NV097_SET_BEGIN_END
+* NV097_SET_VERTEX_DATA_ARRAY_FORMAT (via SetStateVB)
+* NV097_SET_VERTEX_DATA_ARRAY_OFFSET (via SetStateVB)
+* NV097_DRAW_ARRAYS
+
+D3DDevice_DrawVerticesUP
+* NV097_SET_BEGIN_END
+* NV097_SET_VERTEX_DATA_ARRAY_FORMAT (via SetStateUP)
+* NV097_INLINE_ARRAY
+
+D3DDevice_DrawIndexedVertices
+* NV097_SET_BEGIN_END
+* NV097_SET_VERTEX_DATA_ARRAY_FORMAT (via SetStateVB)
+* NV097_SET_VERTEX_DATA_ARRAY_OFFSET (via SetStateVB)
+* NV097_ARRAY_ELEMENT16
+* NV097_INLINE_ARRAY
+
+D3DDevice_DrawIndexedVerticesUP
+* NV097_SET_BEGIN_END
+* NV097_SET_VERTEX_DATA_ARRAY_FORMAT (via SetStateUP)
+* NV097_ARRAY_ELEMENT16
+* NV097_INLINE_ARRAY
+
+
+Xbox also supports two derived Draw API's :
+1. D3DDevice_DrawTriPatch
+2. D3DDevice_DrawRectPatch
+Which get converted into push buffer commands, comparable to the Draw*Vertices* API's.
+
+
+On Xbox, the D3DDevice_SetIndices API is also available, mostly as compatibility with Windows Direct3D 8;
+It writes the supplied index data to a global called D3D__IndexData, which is used by macro's that mimick Windows DrawPrimitive calls. (These macro's forward to the vertex-based Xbox Draw API's.)
+The second argument to D3DDevice_SetIndices, IndexBase is stored internally and only used for D3DDevice_DrawIndexedVertices

+TODO : Describe how SetStreamSource and SetVertexShaderInput[Direct] tie into the above
