curious little toy

[lycium]

here's something i made while working on a university assignment: http://www.fractographer.com/cos340/funky.exe

there is an annoying camera flip because the spherical co-ordinates used to position it can cause the viewing and world up direction to become parallel, but it's kinda fun to play with, especially full screen.

Extreemly Cool!

thanks

indeed cool, can i do more than just move the camera?

if you keep the mouse in a steady movement, it seems like watching a clockwork ...

[lycium]

nope, it's just a really quick hack and the cam motion is a bit sux :| i guess i can make a version that continually rotates (maybe interpolates through random points on the sphere) if anyone wants it

Might make a great screensaver!

I got the same error!

I found this:

http://www.dll-files.com/dllindex/dll-files.shtml?glut32

But have not done anything with it yet!

I guess I'm lazy about things like that...

[cKleinhuis]

either put it in windows/system32 folder, or copy it just to the location of the .exe file!

OK, got it working.

This is a great idea and could be adapted to Lots of interactive Thingies.

Well done!

thanks

i've just updated the zip to include the dll, no more problems there i hope!
