Font3D
3-D Character Description Generator
-----------------------------------
Version 1.1
Last-Minute Information
Copyright (c) 1994, Todd A. Prater.
=============================================================================
1) Dan Tapp <tappd@neosoft.com> has compiled a version of Font3D for
MS-DOS users, and was nice enough to let me include it in this
release. Thanks Dan!
1) Documentation of the source code is not yet complete. I will try do
get this finished before I add too many new features.
2) If very small curve resolutions are used, while trying to bevel or
round the characters edges, the outline approximations can start to
overlap each other, causing the triangulizer to fail. When this
happens you will see the message
ERROR: Unable to Triangulate.
Sometimes, one or both of the following seem to help:
o Increase the curve resolution
o Decrease the shrink factor (the '/s' option)
Also, many times, this message may be safely ignored, especially if
only a few, very small triangles are omitted.
