Due to the LARGE response, I am posting several more RAY traced images to the net. I would like to use this posting to respond to some of the questions that have been asked. Is the generating software available? No. I made the pictures available to see if there is any interest. I am working on a 3d graphics editor, viewier, ray tracer for the Amiga that will be available from me sometime in the next few months (at a very reasonable price). Before I spent all of the time and effort, I thought I would check if anyone might want the software. Are there more pictures? Yes, I will post 7 more tonight. How much CPU time was utilized in creating the images? Picture CPU (HH:MM) ------------ ------------ ------- BRICK.IMG VAX-785 00:27 (previously distributed) CHECKER.IMG VAX-785 01:57 DEC.IMG VAX-785 03:08 (previously distributed) FOCUS.IMG VAX-785 01:21 MARBLE.IMG VAX-785 01:00 MOON.IMG VAX-785 04:46 ROOM.IMG VAX-8650 03:28 WOOD.IMG VAX-785 04:06 (note: on a 780 (1 MIP) ROOM.IMG = 19 hours of CPU time) Enjoy the new ones I'm sending tonight! dave (P.S.
