- You can ftp into my server, ftp.rahul.net, anonymously, to
-
- /pub/bryanw/unix/animation
-
- [IP 192.160.13.1]
-
- and grab some animation programs. I've compiled all of them and they work
- great, right out of the box as they say. Xanim, however, has problems with
- the pixmap, the author knows, and a fix is being attempted. So please
- ignore that file.
-
- Remember, you need to have X installed (duh..) :-)
-
- Here's a brief synopsis:
-
- mpeg-1.2.tar.Z : mpeg player
- xgrasp: GL (grasprt) player
-
- NOTE: I couldnt get xviewgl to compile on my 386-25/8meg, it ran out of
- memory! Could someone try it and see what happens?.. Maybe I wasn't using
- the right includes.
-
- xdl: DL player
-
- I believe those are the important ones. Now, go to
- alt.binaries.pictures.erotica and GO GET THOSE GL/DL FILES.. :-)
-
- toe.cs.berkeley.edu has a slew of MPEG files available.. in
- /pub/multimedia/mpeg/animations (I think that is the correct dir).
-
- Enjoy!
-
- P.S.: If you have problems loggin in,please send email to
- support@rahul.net along with a capture of your ftp session. It will help
- us improve the site. Thanks. You can ftp in any time of the day, but
- there is a limit of >6< concurrent ftp sessions, so it may be best to use
- archie to search for "xdl," "xviewgl," "xgrasp" etc.
-
- These are standard releases for X, I didn't modify them in any way for
- Linux.
