Check us out. We offer 100's of articles on a wide range of game programming topics such as Theory, Design, Math, Physics, etc. We also cover a lot of graphics algorithms and 3D topics. This week we are interviewing Ernest Adams, a technical producer at Electronic Arts . He has helped produce John Madden Football, the best selling video sports game of all time! Check it out! Here is what you have to look forward to: * Interviews with professional programmers, designers, and artists! * A Public game development project, come participate. We are currently in early development. * An article entitled "How to Write a Solid Design Document" submitted by Michael Tanczos * Michael Tanczos submits some information on real-time lense flares * Hin Jang, a technical writer, graciously contributes three *very nice* articles on : NURBS, Volume Light Rendering, and Radiosity Methods. * Jeff Weeks, our regular author, has written a great article entitled "Object Space Rejection" This contribution describes a method of greatly reducing the number of unnecessary transformations of points into world space. HOT!! * Jeff Weeks contributes a z-buffering algorithm that doesn't require any clearing as well as techniques for speeding up the general z-buffer algorithm. Enjoy! And please don't hesitate to offer your comments on the web page through email to me. --- Game Programming 98 Web Development Team http://www.gameprog.com
