tron1@tronsbox.xei.com (HIM) (08/15/90)

I dont have a feed for any comp.sources.* tree so pardon the post here.

Any one have the source for a PORTED version of the QRT ray tracer that will
compile under ISC / SYS V3.2

Please mail replies!

Ray Tracer?  Did you say Ray Tracer?  Isn't this supposed to be for 3-D
graphics?  And life like photo feel?  (With shadows of course)

Ray Tracers are suppose to trace the shape to shadows.  And other fine
things.  BTW, what is QRT?  I am interested in the Ray Tracer for the IBM. 

Please elaborate.  Tanks-

See Dr Dobb's Journal, latest issue, for a discussion. Or get any Amiga
magazine and look at the ads.

There are plenty of PD and freeware ray-tracers floating around on the net.
QRT is one of them.
