[comp.graphics] FAQ

jdb@reef.cis.ufl.edu (Brian K. W. Hook) (01/31/91)

Can someone please mail me the complete FAQ for this board?  Also, how much
is it updated?

Another question(s) in case it isn't on the FAQ....when people are referring
to view coordinates, is assuming that viewer is constantly static and you
move everything around the viewer?

That is, in a flight simulator, does the program fix the plane's position
and translates/rotates the scenery around/past the plane or does only
viewing vector change?

Brian

PS If someone has a concise summary of viewing, world, virtual, global,
and any other type of coordinate systems, could you please e-mail?
