-Net3D V 0.08 port under OpenVMS    March 1995===============================1You can run NET3D via FREEWARE_DEMO.COM procedureGControls for the vehicle you are piloting will be displayed before the 0game starts, and are by default something like :Crotate left              - left    rotate right             - rightBaccellerate              - up      decellerate              - down?climb                    - a       dive                     - zhalt                     - s?gun left                 - o       gun right                - p?gun up                   - j       gun down                 - i?fire                     - return  lock on                  - leject                    - jquit                     - q?wireframe toggle         - w       build menu toggle        - bBlong range view              - 1  view from stationary point   - 2Bview from behind vehicle     - 3  inside view                  - 4Babove view                   - 5  turret view                  - 6Bshort range view             - 7  missile view                 - 8 interesting thing view       - 9ENot all controls will be appropriate for all vehicles. For example, aFvehicle like a tank (in tank.v) cannot fly, so the climb and dive keysDhave no effect. Similarly, in a vehicle with no separate gun turret,5the keys for contolling the turret won't do anything.BUsing the controls, you can fly or drive a vehicle around the gameGworld. Most objects in the game, including the hills, will cause damageGif your vehicle hits them. Also, other computer controlled vehicles may2open fire on you or accidentally collide with you.BSources are available under [.SRC] directory in NET3D-008.ZIP fileLUnder OpenVMS, vehicules and scenery files are not pre-processed at run timebut once with: $ CC/DECC/PREPROC=FILE.I  FILE.V2command. The .I files generated are used by eitherMclient or server at run time, without using pipe and fork mechanisms but by adirect read.KWarning: you need to delete all comment lines generated by CC/DECC/PREPROC,!net3d's parser don't like them !!MNOTA: Preprocessed file are provided in this kit, with all the .V and .DEF_V files.IYou need to define NET3D_DIR logical pointing on the location of .I filesKThe client runs well in single user mode (without server) or in client modeLwith a pre-launched server. However, under VMS the server can only run with Ka fixed number of clients (you can define this number at compile time with VMS_PLAYERS define). 'You need DEC C to compile this program.Example of single-user run:$ net3d map.i tank.iEnjoy,)Patrick Moreau - CENA/Athis-Mons - France[e-mail][e-mail]
