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!
