This regards the hidden surface source code I sent out in the week before Christmas. if you did not receive all of the code, read on; otherwise, you may want to hit the rubout key to avoid information overload. Inevitably, several people have sent me mail indicating that certain articles did not make it to their site. It seems as if the data/dg subdirectory and drivers/ae_util.c definitely did not make it to several sites, so I'll resubmit them. Undoubtedly, net.sources does not get gatewayed to the ARPANET, yet several INFO-GRAPHICS people were interested in getting the code. Is there a site out there that is willing to broadcast this stuff to the ARPANET? It would be good to have several sites out there to redistribute the code locally, rather than UUCP'ing them long distance from Palo Alto; after all, it does take a while to transmit 1/2 Mbyte. Can anyone distribute it in Europe and elsewhere overseas? If you've unpacked all the shar articles, you should have something like the following tree: man/ man/bb_to_txtr.1l man/bbackfill.1l man/bin_tags.1l man/ftb_zsort.1l man/hsalg_input.5l man/hsalgs.treedoc man/hueload.1l man/make_bin.1l man/make_obj.1l man/mk_txcoords.1l man/poly_drawl.1l man/poly_zsort.1l man/scenes.5l man/scn_assmblr.1l man/shape_data.5l man/tiler.1l hsalgs/ hsalgs/Makefile hsalgs/aedclear.c hsalgs/bbackfill.c hsalgs/bbox_task.c hsalgs/error.c hsalgs/ftb_pxls.c hsalgs/ftb_zsort.c hsalgs/hiq_pxls.c hsalgs/hiq_tiler.c hsalgs/hueload.c hsalgs/jag_tiler.c hsalgs/obj_sort.c hsalgs/poly_drawl.c hsalgs/poly_zsort.c hsalgs/ptiler.c hsalgs/rgbtiler.c hsalgs/scn_assmblr.c hsalgs/scn_assmblr.h hsalgs/shiny_tlr.c hsalgs/task_master.c hsalgs/tiler.c hsalgs/u_tiler.c hsalgs/update_obj.c drivers/ drivers/ae_util.c drivers/bb.h drivers/bb_util.c drivers/fbutil.c data/ data/banana.scn data/kln_champ.scn data/xport_data.scn data/code/ data/code/bb_to_txtr.c data/code/bin_tags.c data/code/circle_eye.c data/code/color_bin.c data/code/make_bin.c data/code/make_obj.c data/code/make_texture.c data/code/makefile data/code/mk_txcoords.c data/code/move_eye.c data/code/rescale_bin.c data/code/txtr_bin.c data/dg/ data/dg/column.obj data/dg/tube.obj data/dg/tube.std data/dg/tubend.obj data/dg/tubend.std data/glassware/ data/glassware/champagngl.com data/glassware/champagngl.obj data/glassware/champagngl.std data/hand_built/ data/hand_built/icosa.obj data/hand_built/icosa.tx_std data/hand_built/icosa_pcl.obj data/hand_built/icosa_pcl.std data/hand_built/icosa_vcl.obj data/hand_built/icosa_vcl.scn data/hand_built/icosa_vcl.std data/hand_built/square.obj data/hand_built/square.scn data/hand_built/square.tx_std data/hand_built/trunc_pyr.obj data/hand_built/trunc_pyr.std data/hand_built/trunc_pyr.tx_s data/terrains/ data/terrains/chkrbd.obj data/terrains/chkrbd.std data/utah/ data/utah/banana.obj data/utah/banana.std data/utah/egg.obj data/utah/egg.std data/utah/klnbtl.obj data/utah/klnbtl.std If you haven't unpacked the articles, the appropriate message-id and titles are: turtleva.253 'Hidden Surface Algorithm source code soon coming your way ' turtleva.254 'Source Code for Generating Images posted to net.sources ' turtleva.255 'Documentation for FC's graphics package enclosed ' turtleva.257 'Graphics source in C: hsalgs/bbackfill.c ' turtleva.266 'Graphics source in C: hsalgs/ptiler.c ' turtleva.271 'Graphics source in C: hsalgs/update_obj.c ' turtleva.270 'Graphics source in C: hsalgs/u_tiler.c ' turtleva.274 'Graphics source in C: hsalgs/aedclear.c ' turtleva.275 'Graphics source in C: hsalgs/Makefile ' turtleva.276 'Graphics source in C: hsalgs/bbackfill.c ' turtleva.277 'Graphics source in C: hsalgs/bbox_task.c ' turtleva.278 'Graphics source in C: hsalgs/error.c ' turtleva.279 'Graphics source in C: hsalgs/ftb_pxls.c ' turtleva.280 'Graphics source in C: hsalgs/ftb_zsort.c ' turtleva.281 'Graphics source in C: hsalgs/hiq_pxls.c ' turtleva.282 'Graphics source in C: hsalgs/hiq_tiler.c ' turtleva.283 'Graphics source in C: hsalgs/hueload.c ' turtleva.284 'Graphics source in C: hsalgs/jag_tiler.c ' turtleva.285 'Graphics source in C: hsalgs/obj_sort.c ' turtleva.286 'Graphics source in C: hsalgs/poly_drawl.c ' turtleva.287 'Graphics source in C: hsalgs/poly_zsort.c ' turtleva.288 'Graphics source in C: hsalgs/ptiler.c ' turtleva.289 'Graphics source in C: hsalgs/regurgitate.c ' turtleva.290 'Graphics source in C: hsalgs/rgbtiler.c ' turtleva.291 'Graphics source in C: hsalgs/scn_assmblr.c ' turtleva.292 'Big frame buffer driver: drivers/bb_util.c ' turtleva.293 'Medium frame buffer driver: drivers/fbutil.c ' turtleva.294 'Pseudocolor driver: drivers/ae_util.c ' turtleva.295 'Graphics source in C: hsalgs/shiny_tlr.c ' turtleva.296 'Graphics source in C: hsalgs/task_master.c ' turtleva.297 'Graphics source in C: hsalgs/tiler.c ' turtleva.298 'Graphics source in C: hsalgs/u_tiler.c ' turtleva.299 'Graphics source in C: hsalgs/update_obj.c ' turtleva.300 'Introduction to Graphics Data files: scenes, objects, details, etc. ' turtleva.301 'Scene descriptions: banana.scn, kln_champ.scn, xport_data.scn ' turtleva.302 'Graphics database manipulation programs: code ' turtleva.303 'Graphics objects: subdirectory data/dg ' turtleva.304 'Graphics objects: subdirectory data/glassware ' turtleva.305 'Graphics objects: subdirectory data/hand_built ' turtleva.306 'Graphics objects: subdirectory data/terrains ' turtleva.307 'Graphics objects: subdirectory data/utah ' turtleva.308 'Listing of posted graphics modules ' turtleva.310 'Common questions about "graphics source in C" ' turtleva.311 'Oops, forgot scn_assmblr.h in Graphics Source distribution ' ----------------------------------------------------------------- Ken Turkowski CADLINC, Palo Alto {decwrl,amd70}!turtlevax!ken
