      OBJECT3D SAMPLES
      V0.1

********************************************

This some samples program made with Object3D.

Object3D is a C++ librarie used to draw real time
3D Objects. But you can use it with other languages
than C++.

Installations:

Run the setup.exe executable and follow the instructions.

Setup will also install if necessary the WinG DLL. If
something goes wrong, maybe you could try to get WinG
(at ftp.microsoft.com) and install it.

Samples:

There is 3 samples:

M3D.EXE

A C++ application, using the MFC classes. This application
allow you to load objects, to rotate them (using the right
and left mousbutton) to move them (right+left mousebutton)
and to change the background. Note that if you want to
but a background (using the background item of the option 
menu) you have to specifie the name of a gif file and
an option different than backg_none.
You can also play with differents attributes of the librairie.

SIMPLE.EXE
It's a simple C application used to show the usage from C,
with a DLL.

VBTEST.EXE
A 100% visual basic application. Object3D is also available
as a VBX, so you can use it from you VB application. This
is a collection of example of what it's possible to do
from Visual Basic with Object3D.

spread them, but don't try to steal some code. 
I don't know at the moment the type of distribution of this
library (commercial, shareware,...)

Object3D:

Now, just some inforamtion about this librarie:

* Real Time 3D Display
* Texture Mapping
* Light: Ambiant, Shading and Gouraud
* Transparent Mapping
* Load and Save Objects to disk
* Hierarchical objects.
* Add others kind of basic items by subclassing classes.
* Can be used from C (.DLL)
* With VisualBasic, a VBX allow you to add 3D objects in
  you forms without writing one line of code.

             DLL (C,...)
             VBX (Visual Basic)
