Anim8or v0.95c

Description:
Anim8or is a 3D computer animation program that is designed to allow straightforward creation of animations.

You interactively create and edit objects, figures, and scenes directly on the computers screen. The basic interface is similar to most 3D animation and CAD programs.

Version v0.95 is now available. Anim8or has come a long way since the first release called v0.1. There are still may areas that need improvement, primarily the renderer, but it's getting close to what I had originally imagined as the magic v1.0. I don't plan on stopping there, but it'll be a nice milestone along the way.

Features:
* 3D Modeler - Create and modify 3D models. Built-in primitives such as spheres, cylinders, platonic solids, etc.; mesh-edit and subdivision; splines, extrusion, lathing, modifiers, bevel and warps,
* TrueType font support - 2D and 3D extruded text for any TrueType font.
* OpenGL based real time operation,
* Import and modify .3DS (3D Studio), .LWO (Lightwave), and .OBJ (Wavefront) object files,
* Export .3DS files,
* Built in 3D Object browser,
* Jointed character editor,
* Morph targets,
* Anti-aliased software renderer for high quality, production quality images,
* Create 3D scenes and animations and output .AVI movie files, .JPG and .BMP images,
* Supports textures, bump maps, soft shadows, spotlights, fog, and much more,
* Texture support for .BMP, .GIF, and .JPG format files,
* Print images of scenes and models.
* OpenGL shaders for realistic previews.
* Scripting language.
* Plig-ins for parameteric shape and object export.

Installation Instructions
Anim8or is very simple to install and run. It is composed of a single executable file that can be put anywhere on your disk. I have plans to add a plug-in capability sometime in the future, but for now, at least, life is simple:
* Download the latest version of the Anim8or program in the file animv095.zip below.
* Optionally download the PDF Anim8or user manual in the file animv095dPDF.zip below.
* Unzip them into your target directory. (If you've never heard of a "zip" file is, see the comments below.)
* Run the file anim8or.exe.

That's all there is to it.

Requirements:
* Windows NT4, Win95, Win98, WinSE, Win2K, or WinXP,
* OpenGL accelerated graphics card with full ICD support, (ala GeForce),
* 64 MB memory, 128MB recommended, or 256MB if you use WinXP,
* 300 MHz Pentium,
* 5MB disk space.
