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.

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(+)!
