Heh, the engine in the Tux is faster than the current one in Majik 3D, even if it doesn't have quite anything, yet :) Btw, can AC3D load 3DS objects? I have been looking a way to load and modify 3DS models on Linux, but yet I haven't found anything. Majority (read all) of our graphic designers seem to prefer the 3DS format so we have no other choice and that sucks a little bit as we need to rely totally on those designers without having chance to do quickly some simple models or modify the existing ones. > The code for Tux is only about 7,000 lines - and a lot of that > is stuff you won't need. I'm right now looking at it, trying to find a way to trap the mouse :), hmm then I need to study the SSG. -- Tommi Leino / Majik 3D project namhas@majik.netti.fi http://majik.netti.fi
