Short: Plots 3D-datas with shading etc.-MUI Author: ss37@inf.tu-dresden.de (Sven Steiniger) Uploader: ss37 inf tu-dresden de (Sven Steiniger) Type: gfx/3d Version: 3.35 Replaces: gfx/3d/Plotter3D.* Requires: OS 2.04+, MUI 3.7+ Architecture: m68k-amigaos Plotter3D is highly specialized for drawing threedimensional datas. Features: - a lot of drawmodes, eq. XYZ-colorflow, gouraud-shading, even phongshading, all working in 24Bit - draws previews directly into previewwindow with grayscale or 32+ colors. On a CyberGfx-Screen in *full* 16/24Bit. - Nearly all windows are 'interactive'. Means you can change settings and they are used immeditely. No need to close the window and because of that you still have full undo-capabilities. - you can rotate, move, scale objects directly with the mouse - nice graphical user interface (MUI) - dynamic window creating == you can open as many windows as you want - heavily uses Drag&Drop - unlimited number of objects - unlimited number of lightsources per object - you can define own materials - possibility to import/export objects. Currently supported are TDDD-objects (Imagine) [IE], Lightwave-objects [E], CSV-files [IE], Pictures [I] and Fonts [I]. - has an special *RealTime mode*. You can rotate, scale and move an object in realtime. Supported realtime modes are flatshading, gouraudshading, texturemapping, faked phong shading and combined gouraudshading/texture mapping. - realtime mode has an special *i-Glasses* switch. Then it renders true 3D-pictures. - possibility to save the frames of realtime mode. Building animations with eq. MainView is very easy. - localized: English is built-in, german, french and spanish catalogs included. English and german docs included. - online help - ... (try it) Whats new since v3.30: - some bug fixes - added workarounds for MUI-ASL bugs Whats new since v3.20: - Select mode to determine coordinates of points - lot of bug fixes (argghh! found really nasty ones) - loading of full TDDD-objects - new realtime modes: flatshading and combined gouraud/texturemapping Whats new since v3.01: - i-Glasses support in realtime mode ! - 3D-functions may now also contain constants (eg. 'pi') - parameters u, v now also functions (eg. 'pi*exp(2)') - all exceptions are not catched - realtime mode work now with large objects (>32000 triangles) - Doublebuffering for CyberGfx-screens - more stable & precise realtime mode - errorhandler works again (no longer 'Unknown Error'-requests) - added lightwave exporter - a lot of bug fixes - MUI-Pubscreen should no longer crash - ... see docs/history Has been successfully test on A1230, A1260, A4000, A4000/060. It will probably crash on plain A500/A600(+)!
