I was wondering if anybody knew how the Apple ray tracings were done. I know that they used the Cray for most of the generations (some Mac II comparisons were apparently done also), but I was wondering if it was all custom software, and if there is any way that _any_ of the images or object files are available. I do have some of the images, as many of those got out, but am looking more for some of the object descriptions, as here at UCSC we have a roomful of little used 386-based Xenix machines running U. Toronto's OPTIK program, that are dying for me to diddle with them. I did do a few of my own descriptors, but would like to see what parameters gave Apple the well known demo images. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- - Alexander M.
