- THE ANIMATION
-
- This animation depicts a Klingon D-7 battlecruiser under fire from an
- Excelsior class Federation starship. The animation was created to test
- some explosion effects.
-
-
- HOW-TO
-
- The animation was created using several programs. The starships are
- 3-D models constructed in Cyber Sculpt and the flyby passes were rendered
- with CAD-3D 2 (using a Cyber Control script). The explosion effects...
- for me to know and you to find out.

-
- NOTES ON THIS VERSION
-
- To make this animation runable on a 1-megabyte ST system the entire file
- was "letterboxed", with the top 46 and bottom 46 lines of the picture
- being blacked out. This reduced the total amount of memory taken by the
- animation from almost 1-meg to under 700K! I was careful to make sure
- nothing important was cut off, so all you really lose is part of the
- opening "flyover" of the Klingon Battlecruiser, bits of the phaser beams,
- and parts of the explosion.
-
-
- MEMORY
-
- This animation should load ANY ST or TT computer provided it has a least
- 1-megabyte of RAM. 1-meg ST users should have NOTHING in memory but
- ANIMATEx.PRG in order to view this file.
