pV1
[in] Pointer to a D3DXVECTOR3 structure, defining one of the points used to construct the plane.
pV2
[in] Pointer to a D3DXVECTOR3 structure, defining one of the points used to construct the plane.
pV3
[in] Pointer to a D3DXVECTOR3 structure, defining one of the points used to construct the plane.

Return Value

Pointer to the D3DXPLANE  structure constructed from the given points.
