Applications that only need a > single window, mouse and keyboard (and no other > features of GLUT) can now have no dependencies > whatever outside of PLIB and OpenGL. > > * PLIB is now completely independent of GLUT. You > can even build it without GLUT being installed. > Modules to allow PUI to work with GLUT, freeglut, > SDL, FLTK and our own PW windowing library are > provided. > > * ssgAux now includes a relatively simple sky model > kindly donated by the SimGear project. Now you > can have sun, moon, stars and clouds with just > a handful of function calls. > > * PSL (PLIB Scripting Language) - a C-like interpreted > scripting language is now bundled into PLIB. It's > a byte-code interpreter - and it has some useful > properties for games and other interactive packages > in that it allows the application much finer control > over the running of the script(s) than traditional > scripting engines. > > * In the demos area, we added the 'simon' package > which provides a simple framework for PSL scripts > to be loaded - and they may in turn load 3D models, > move them around, etc. Astropong.psl (a simple 3D > 'Pong' game in PSL) is provided as a demo. > > And of course, many bugs have been slain and numerous > other smaller features have been added. > > There are a couple of outstanding problems with the MSVC > project files - these will hopefully be fixed up in a couple of > days. Windows users should be able to build with Cygwin without > problems. > > Thanks again for everyone who helped: > > Steve Baker. > > > > ---------------------------- Steve Baker ------------------------- > HomeEmail: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> WorkEmail: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > HomePage : http://www.sjbaker.org > Projects : http://plib.sf.net http://tuxaqfh.sf.net > http://tuxkart.sf.net http://prettypoly.sf.net > -----BEGIN GEEK CODE BLOCK----- > GCS d-- s:+ a+ C++++$ UL+++$ P--- L++++$ E--- W+++ N o+ K? w--- !O M- > V-- PS++ PE- Y-- PGP-- t+ 5 X R+++ tv b++ DI++ D G+ e++ h--(-) r+++ y++++ > -----END GEEK CODE BLOCK----- > > > ------------------------------------------------------- > This SF.Net email is sponsored by: IBM Linux Tutorials > Free Linux tutorial presented by Daniel Robbins, President and CEO of > GenToo technologies.
