But by this, you are saying that the w value is not like the u and v
values. I don't think this fits with the ideology behind the 3-sided
bezier patch. There is not supposed to be any difference between the
three sides.

As I wrote, when you change the epsilon1 value to 1, then the
distribution is even for a equilateral triangle and there is no
difference between the three sides. I'm pretty convinced that this is
how it's actually supposed to work, and I don't think it's a random
"tweak" but rather a correction.

Now it does. :)

The uneven distribution and the UV mapping are two completely different
issues. The UV mapping never was a problem, and as I said earlier, I do
indeed intent to add support for custom UV vectors for the UV mapping.
The uneven distribution was the actual problem, but I found the solution
for that (changing the epsilon) so now there's no problem at all...

There is a white space in the messages I send. If it's not there when
they arrive, then Outlook Express must somehow remove them. :(
