There is a lot involved in getting that screenshot.

Sounds interesting. Any plans for it?

Well, first I need to do clipping (Right now, triangles aren't clipped to the screen, so if they extend off of it wierd **** happens) then I can release a little demo with arc-ball rotation and zooming and all that neat stuff. Then I need to make it fast; that means converting most of the vector operations in inline asm with SSH instructions, and converting the filler to fixed point, and then to asm. I should be able to parallize most of that too - for example, I can increment all three interpolated values used for perspective correct texture mapping with a single SSH vector add operation.

The goal is to atleast meet the performance of JK's software rasterizer at the same level of quality. However, I won't be using colormaps because I don't plan on dropping down to 8 bit. I'll drop to 16bit if I have to too get the performance I need, though.

I tried doing that once when i was like 10. Boy was I stupid. Yours is impressive to me even as it is right now.

I know you'll be putting some into asm later, but what language is it in now?

I see dflt.mat

(awesome work)

A rasterizer done entirely from scratch? Good work. Not sure why it's hosted at JKhub, though...

It uses JK resources

(dflt.mat)

:p

And I guess nothing screams "JK!" quite the same as DFLT.MAT. What would be do without it?

Actually, that's dflt.bmp

It can load bmp, tga, jpg, png, gif, and a dozen other formats... but not mat.
