First, thanks to Rob once again.
Second, here it is! A small demo of Tapu's 3D engine. There's much =
information in the .zip file but here's some main points:
There are two files in the zip-file: I wish you read the txt file before =
running the exe file. the exe file is a demo that uses two libraries: =
Pete's Neil (thanks Pete :) and my own t3de library. That's right! I =
chanced my engine format from .ex to .e Now it's easier to add the =
engine into any program and to any platform (t3de is currently platform =
intependent ;).
Why then exe? why not release the source? Well, I'm not really sure yet =
what to do with ta source. My newest idea is that when t3de is in really =
good condition, I'll release an include file so that anyone can add it =
into their progs! But att this time it's so much under construction that =
I'll just send these demos once in a while.
This demo runs under DOS (and windows ofcourse) in 640x480x32 graphics =
mode. I didn't add any graphics mode choose, so if your card doesn't =
support this one, and this demo is a must-see for you, then let me know.
The demo is really cool looking but slow. I know, optimization needed, =
but can't do that much while the engine is this much under =
construction... it would just make it harder for me to understand what =
I've coded before.
I've been a bit busy(as always), but I'll try to develop t3de further =
when ever it's possible.
I quess that's all folks.. except thanks for everyone in the mailing =
list :)

ps. if you like, you may send me some feedback. I'll appreciate it.

Talvitie,
Just a couple of points:
1. 200+ kb is way too much for many mail boxes of this list. I made
the same stupid mistake myself once...
2. I suspect, executables are a big no no on this list too. Only a
reckless fool would run them after the sad experience we all had about
a year ago. Shroud it, if that's your way of sharing things, but
please, no exe files!

What sad experience? I wasn't on the list that time, but anyway, sorry =
again.
>Shroud it, if that's your way of sharing things
Well, I wasn't really sharing it as I propably should when participating =
to the list. Do you all hate me when not doing so? I just like to keep =
it as a secret for a while...

ok, here's the shrouded file of *Tapu's 3D engine gouraud demo* + the =
txt file.
This demo is just for show what I have done so far. It will also be the =
last unreadable file I send to the list. Next files will be readable and =
useful for others and I'll make home page for those and other.

Hi Talvitie,
I tried your demo (both the exe and shrouded ex versions) and I get the
same error in both:
...T3DE-2ND.EXE:670 in function Cd()
true/false condition must be an ATOM
Ce = 640
Cf = 480
Cg = 32' '
... called from ...T3DE-2ND.EXE:2973
Is this your program's way of saying my system doesn't support that video
mode? (if so, you should exit gracefully with a descriptive error message)
Would you like me to send you the rest of the debug spew (Global & Local
Variables)?

I have no idea. it migth be an error in video mode support =
(640,320,32), but that "true/false condition must be an ATOM" thing =
really bugs me. I ran both files again on my machine and there were no =
problems att all.

Local

yes, that would be nice. If you know, tell me what color dephts does =
your card support.
Thanks,
