Help. I don't understand the technical terms!!!

Hi there,

My name is Christian and I'm from Holland. I was reading an interview with
someone who had designed a Formula 1 game. At a certain point he started
talking about the technical stuff, and I did not have a clue what he was
talking about. Therefore I hope someone out there can explain it to me and
if possible give a translation in Dutch, that would really help me!!

The following terms and sentences puzzled me:

1       the 3D engine

2       The first area to improve was to clean up the distant break up of
polygons, getting reasonably clean rendering

3       the dynamic draw distance

4       a polygon count

I hope someone can help me or maybe you can suggest another newsgroup to
post this in.

Thanks for your help

Christian
