hiya
sorry for this intrusion on your englishish reading qualities , but i
really need to find people to help me on this , as i'm not such a c
coder and that prob. is the language of choice for this as i really
need the speed
i tried building my own 3d engine in turbo pascal 7 (asm
optimized , of course :) but really i could use 3dfx support (try that
in tp7! :) so , i'm currently thinking of using either the panard vision
engine , or the allegro djgpp library with some cewl ready made
enhancments (like the pre-emptive multitasking addon & the comm
support for nullmodems )
read it , and plz reply if you think you're able to do so :)

to create a program , or a set of programs , to be able to create wicked images , in realtime , in 3d , with general demo effects and more , to be able to manipulate what is displayed in a live-script like fashion , to be able to manipulate this script over a network connection , to be able to use a voodoo1 or a permedia2 for rendering & to be able to sell this program later *g* , well maybe , but the most important thing is , it must be ready on the 5th of may !!! , not final, but at least a visibly correct one .

triggers - times on which things happen , possibly a beat-detection
triggers are mappable to targets.
targets - actions , things that can be altered on the current object
or effect (focus) , properties like : visible , color (pointer to
a pallette) , transparant? , dunno , we'll see..
objects - objects can be a number of things (type) ;
images(jpg,transparant gif) , 2d shapes(like hexagon
shapes , 3d shapes(3ds or something else)
each type has a different set of targets.
object can be loaded at runtime , or imported over a
network. preloading! loading without showing & continous
rendering! no interrupts or what ever..
effects - effects that apply to the hole screen , to the current object
, or on the background
like : blur , motion blur , posterize, solarize , feedback
colors - pallettes of colors , preset pallettes of themes or something
winter , summer , happy , groovy , techno
maybe some sort of theme texturemapping as well..
