- EUCLID is the foremost 3-D modelling and animation system for the Archimedes.
-
- Features: A fully Wimp-driven Design program allowing interactive
- construction of 3-D objects with the minimum of effort. Simple camera setup
- and movement. Easy to use interface to BBC-BASIC for real-time animation of
- simple 3-D scenes with no mathematical know-how. Libraries of shapes can be
- built up for rapid scene construction. Plenty of pre-defined shapes and
- programming examples are supplied.
-
- Registered users of EUCLID should have upgraded already to a version of the
- system which can cope fully with RISCOS. Those who have not done so will
- find that the original system will work correctly as a 'take over the
- screen' application, except that the WIMP colours will be strange, and that
- some window positions will alter. Both of these versions should only be used
- in Mode 15.
-
- There is now a full RISCOS compatible EUCLID costing £70. This system is
- available to registered owners at £15 (return your original disk - you get a
- new manual).
-
- MOGUL is a film generation system available as an attachment to Euclid
- for £20. You can construct complex animations of Euclid objects combined
- with artwork which can be replayed at high speed. Only a few camera
- positions need be set up - all intermediate frames are calculated for
- you. The compression/expansion system is applicable to any sequence of
- graphic screens, and can manage Normal or Delta compression. It is
- accessible from BBC-BASIC.
-
- The Projector directory on this disc contains a public domain film expander
- which can be used to play Ace Films in a window on the desktop.
-
- Watch out for further titles from ACE Computing, all specifically written to run under RISCOS.
