Woof3D: New Crossplatform-3D-API
Woof3D is a shared library for Amiga, Windows95 and Linux x86.
It offers a very SIMPLE way to create 3D program in C.
So Woof 3D is a graphic engine mainly a 3D engine for texturing
3D polygons much more like 3D cards. It evolved a lot from its
starting in May 2000 and now offers high level and low level
functions for 3D and 2D graphics.
Why an other 3D engine ?
- Cause Woof3D is very SIMPLE to program. You don't need to know
anything about the supported OS
- Cause Woof3D offer true cross platforming with Linux X86,
Windows95, AmigaOS 68K versions (one C source for all).
- Cause Woof3D offer high level functions like direct Vscape
or Caligari files handling.
- Cause Woof3D also offer basic 2D and 3D primitives that allow
to program lots of simple graphics softwares like OS-friendly games.
- Cause beginners in C language don't have to know about pointers
or dereferencing to use Woof3D
Supported platforms
- PC x86 with Windows95 and DirectDraw (2D hardware acceleration)
- Amiga 68k with AmigaOS 3.0-3.9 and Cybergraphics/Picasso96
(2D hardware acceleration ) or any computer emulating an
Amiga the same way (with WinUAE, DosUAE, etc.)
- Amiga 68k with AmigaOS 3.0-3.9 and a Warp3D 3D card (3D hardware
acceleration )
- PC x86 with Linux and Xwindow (2D hardware acceleration)
