- DKBTrace

-
- This ray tracer was written by David K. Buck and is released as freely
- distributable software. The author retains all copyrights but permits
- free distribution of the software through any medium. The software may
- be used without charge so long as the code is not included in any
- commercial product.
-
-
- The Amiga archive here contains two versions of the raytracer:
-
- traceffp - Fast Floating Point version of the raytracer.
- This version will run on any Amiga with sufficient
- memory.
-
- trace881 - Math coprocessor version. This version will only
- run on 68020 or 68030 based systems that have a
- 68881 or 68882 math coprocessor.
-
-
- I usually like having a fairly large stack for this program. If it
- crashes on you, try inceasing the stack size.
-
-
- The program documentation can be found in the file DKB.DOC and the
- documentation for some Amiga specific utilities may be found in
- AmigaUtils.doc.
-
- This program is being distributed in four separate packages:
-
-
- DKBTrace.lzh: Executables for traceffp and trace881
- documentation files
- DumpToIFF and Sculpt2DKB executables
-
- DKBData.lzh Many sample data files
-
- DKBSource.lzh Source code for DKBTrace, Amiga utilities, and
- IBM Utilities.
-
-
- DKBPics.lzh Sample pictures produced by the raytracer.
- (you could render these yourself using the
- data files in the DKBTrace.lzh archive)
-
-
- There is a document in the DKBTrace.lzh archive which describes the
- conversions required to use data files for DKBTrace version 1.2 with
- the new 2.0 version. This file is called 12to20.doc
-
- This readme file is in all three archives.
