1.Introduction.
What is this? Just a simple,realtime LightWave objects shower.
It started as an idea for LW plug-in, which never happened :).
2.Requirements:
An AGA chipset, Kickstart 3.0 or above.
Libraries: Reqtools.library in the libs: directory
2 megabytes of RAM for simple objects. Reccomended at least 0.5 MB of fast
RAM to gain some speed on plain a1200. Should work pretty fast on todays Amiga emulators.
NewWpa8 or PatchWPA8 recommended for performance boost.
3.Features:
Light View offers:
-LightWave 5 object format supported,
-different viewmodes:
-points,
-lines (solid, to be honest),
-simple shading (FLAT),
-Z-Shade shading,
-Gouraud shading,
-fake Phong shading (enviorment mapping),
-coloured surfaces
-three modes of polygon flipping:
-right faces,
-left faces,
-all faces (it helps with some bad converted objects),
-free scaling and rotating of the object with mouse,
-automatic rotation,
-multitasking,
-basic RTG support.
