- Persistence of Vision Quantiser Utilities version 1.6
- =====================================================
-
- SOURCE CODE (PVQUAN16.ZIP)
- ===========================
-
- Description
- ~~~~~~~~~~~
- This archive contains the source code for a set of programs to convert
- image files produced by DKB-Trace or the Persistence of Vision raytracer
- into a format suitable for display on a VGA screen, or to GIF format. It
- includes programs to generate a single stereoscopic 3D image from two
- views of a scene, as well as programs to produce animation from multiple
- ray-traced images.
-
- QUANT (HECKBERT & OCTREE):
- Colour quantisation program which post-processes raw image files
- produced by the Persistence of Vision Ray Tracer (PoV Ray). Two
- versions can be compiled: one uses Heckbert's median-splitting
- algorithm, whereas the other uses Octree quantisation.
-
- DISPLAY:
- Displays either 320x400 or 320x200 images on a VGA screen, either 2D,
- or stereo 3D. 3D images require Sega 3D-glasses to be connected to the
- serial port for viewing.
-
- ANIMDAT:
- Reads an animation source file (*.VAR), and uses it to generate data
- files for the PoV ray tracer.
-
- ANIMFLI:
- Produces a .FLI file containing a series of images to be displayed by
- a .FLI player (e.g. Autodesk's AAPLAY).
-
-
- PVQUAN16.ZIP Archive contents
- =============================
-
- This archive contains subdirectory information... unzip it using
-
- PKUNZIP -d PVQUAN16
-
- It will create a subdirectory tree in your current directory as follows:
-
- pvquan ─┐ Sample files
- ├─ quant Heckbert and Octree quantisers
- ├─ animdat Animation Scene file generator
- ├─ giflib GIF encode/decode library
- ├─ flilib FLI creation library
- ├─ anim FLI creation source code
- ├─ vga VGA mode-X library
- └─ display VGA 3D display
-
- Each directory contains source code, plus make-files to produce
- executable programs via MS-DOS, OS/2, or Unix.
-
- You may also wish to create a BIN directory off the PVQUAN directory...
- the sample make-files attempt to place executable programs there.
-
- To create your own executables:
-
- 1. In each directory, rename the appropriate version of the
- makefile to MAKEFILE (e.g. REN MAKEDOS MAKEFILE if compiling for
- DOS).
-
- Because both quantisers use common code, they are contained in
- the same directory. This causes some problems in terms of naming
- the makefiles.
-
- In MS-DOS, rename MAKEDOS.HEC to MAKEFILE to produce HECKBERT.EXE
- rename MAKEDOS.OCT to MAKEFILE to produce OCTREE.EXE
-
- In OS/2, rename MAKEFILE.OCT to MAKEFILE to produce OCTREE.EXE
- rename MAKEHEC.DEP to MAKEFILE.DEP to produce HECKBERT.EXE
-
- In Unix, rename MAKEUNIX.HEC to MAKEFILE to produce HECKBERT
- rename MAKEUNIX.OCT to MAKEFILE to produce OCTREE
-
- 2. Edit each makefile to include the correct path to your compiler,
- linker, executable location, etc.
-
- In MS-DOS, all source files compile and link cleanly (no
- warnings, no errors) using Turbo C++ v1.0. Other versions of
- Turbo-C should also work. Some editing will be required for
- other compilers.
-
- In OS/2, all source files compile and link cleanly (no warnings,
- no errors) using IBM's C Set/2 v1.0. Some editing will be
- required for other compilers.
-
- In Unix, all source files compile and link cleanly (no warnings,
- no errors) using GNU's gcc on a Sun IPC SPARCstation. The
- previous version compiled cleanly under SCO's cc compiler on a
- 486 PC, but this version hasn't been tested with that. Some
- editing will be required for other compilers.
-
- 3. Create FLI, GIF, and VGA libraries via MAKE. N.B. The OS/2
- version does not use libraries. Instead the .OBJ files are
- linked in directly.
-
- 4. Create executable programs via MAKE.
