Hi everyone. A few months ago I wrote a (freeware) library of 3d drawing routines for the amiga. After it was included (without my knowledge) as an example on the Aztec C 5.0 release disks, I found a serious problem in the surface sorting algor. I finally got around to fixing it (as well as adding a couple of new things to it) a few days ago. I think it's working now, but I'd like a few people to beta test it for me. If you haven't seen it, the library allows fast and relatively easy drawing of a set of 3d objects (wireframe or surfaces) from any persepective. It should make 3d video games, 3d object editors, etc ... very easy to write. It uses (almost) all integer math, so it's quite speedy. If you'd like to be a beta-tester, let me know, and I'll try to get a copy to you. Once I'm sure it's not too buggy, I'll post it to comp.sources.amiga. -- --------------------------------------------------------------------------- stevel@tybalt.caltech.edu CS-> | <-Ph stevel@citiago (Bitnet) \|/ I DO ... 72335,1537 (Compuserve) ?

I'd be happy to be a beta tester of your 3d software. Please send me a copy if you would. Thank you. Peter Kovach Facation - A vacation of the mind Internet: kovach@src.honeywell.com

Thank you. >Peter Kovach I'd also be interested.. I'm working on a 3d game program myself, and would like to discuss 3d implementations on the Amiga.. I've seen Ken Offer's QPaint 3d library, but I don't think it will do for what I intend.. I anticipate writing my own game-specific assembly routines to take advantage of certain characteristics of the 3d space, but I would be overjoyed to see what others have done..
