3DFILES.COM Screensaver Contest. 3\10\99

-Screensaver Name: DeepLife

-Screensaver API: Direct3D for DirectX6

-Screensaver Description: DeepLife is a real-time 3D viewer for L-Systems, or 
Lindenmayer systems, which are compact sets of rules that can describe complex 
3D geometry.  For example, a text file that is only a couple hundred bytes in 
size can produce an intricate structure on the order of hundreds of thousands 
of polygons!  DeepLife renders and animates L-Systems in real-time, producing 
models that can mimic nature, including trees, plants, and microscopic sea-life.  
Those who are brave can edit the L-Systems included with DeepLife, and create 
their own forms of life!

-List Of Known Bugs: LS files that describe enormously large geometry will 
hang the system.  Be careful when designing your own L-Systems!
