[comp.graphics] The Continuing Saga of MTV's Raytracer

markv@uoregon.uoregon.edu (Mark VandeWettering) (09/10/88)

Well, for all those who discovered that I don't know how to properly set
permissions, I apologize.  I will try to keep my stupidity to a minimum
in the future. 

I also thought I would take the time to present a list of the software
that I am making available via anonymous ftp.  All these things have
been distributed via netnews over the past few years, so I dusted them
off and made them available.

I encourage anyone who has some interesting programs to contribute to
send me mail.  Unfortunately, I cannot allow people to upload directly,
because our space is VERY tight here (the anonymous ftp login puts you
in a subdirectory of mine, and I have a puny quota), but I would like to
maintain a library of freely distributable source code for computer
graphic applications.  I hope to have viewers for sun and X11 soon, as
well as an imagen printer dump.  Anyone working on such things, write me
if you would like to have your work distributed.

Anyway, here is the current contents of the directory ~/pub on
drizzle.cs.uoregon.edu (128.223.4.1):

-cut-cut-cut-cut-cut-cut-cut-cut-cut-cut-cut-cut-cut-cut-cut-cut-cut-cut



This directory contains:

	raytrace.shar		my raytracer as it was posted to usenet's
				comp.graphics group

	rpi-tracer.shar		A raytracer written by George Kyriazis,
				posted to comp.graphics.
				
	teapot.nff.Z		compressed nff file of the famous
				"teapot", as patches for the above
				raytracer.

	mini-ray.shar		The winner to paul heckbert's minimal
				raytracing contest.  Wow!  Fit's on a
				screen, once it has been "raped".

	ohta-tracer.shar	A REALLY FAST spheres only raytracer.
				Was originally posted to comp.graphics.

	haines.shar		A slightly out of date version of Eric
				Haine's NFF Standard Procedural Database
				stuff.  I am working on getting the
				latest and greatest from netlib, but
				they seem to be slow.

Any questions or bugs with this software can be send to markv@cs.uoregon.edu

Thank you
