Hmm... So basically, it's probably not ideally suited to games - but would probably be a good basis for a (cross-platform) 3D rendering package?

| This looks VERY interresting, one of the most interresting os4 releases so far in my eyes. Must check it out at once! Thanks! |

| Maybe this could be used to create a software renderer for Warp3D (unless one already is in the works)? That would be a nice addition, especially since it could help figuring out if something doesn't work due to hardware limitations or bugs in the user code...
edit: I first had to fix my W3D code for FPSE to work with the Voodoo3 as I just had the BVision when I wrote it, and I then had to fix it to work on the Radeon 7000 when I got one because I got reports it didn't work on the Radeon... Something, anything, which would be picky but still support all those fancy effects would be a great help making sure the code is written correctly...

| Nice effects indeed, but the speed is quite slow as stated. Still a very nice release! |

| @amigamania:
That's true. Then again, the performance isn't lightning fast on P4 either:

Maybe it could be optimized a bit. Perhaps someone with G4 would be interested to write Matrix/Vector stuff for Altivec. Last edited by Mr_Capehill on 04-Mar-2005 at 11:00 AM.

LOL!
Yes, I guess lha would be simplier...but bzip2 packs tighter, right?
I forgot also to "clean" the directory, so object files are floating around...sorry!!! 
About those things coming from my head...well...don't open boxes, they are bad for your health! |

Why not be a bit more diplomatic?
Why not use *.lha.bz2 instead of *.tar.bz2 / *.lha
