Description

Due to the fact that the LRV uses the function MeshgroupTransform in order to move the instruments, when using D3D9Client, where the function is not supported, none of the instruments work and hence are static. This issue is not seen when using software rendering.

Research direction

Start by tracing the Lunar Rover instrument movement through MeshgroupTransform and compare its behavior under D3D9Client hardware rendering and software rendering. The issue is done when the instruments move correctly with hardware rendering without regressing software rendering; no file or test is named in the report.
