How to transform vertices with matrices on the CPU?

See more:

DirectX

I have a working graphics pipeline with perspective projection. i wanted to get the transformed vertices on the CPU, now the only way to achieve that was to multiply the vector with my transformation matrices using DirectX::XMVector4Transform. I expected the resulting vectors to be normalized between -1 to 1 while all the vertices are inside screen. But most of the vectors are more than 1 or less than -1. using the same transformation matrices i transform the verts in the gpu and it works perfectly. using the same matrices i expect the vectors to be between -1 and 1 as long as the veerts are being renderd in on the screen (i.e they between -1 to 1).

What I have tried:

i am skeptikal about XMVector4Transform() function

lang="c++">

projectedVectors[i].verts[j] = XMVector4Transform(XMVector4Transform(XMVector4Transform(v1, mWorld), *mView), *mProj);
