Archive-name: auto/comp.sys.next.software/Announcing-Plot3D-version-2-0 Well, I finally got my hands on release 3.0. I've modified Plot3D so it uses Renderman for its 3d output, and improved a whole bunch of other things. You can ftp the new version from sonata.cc.purdue.edu or ion.rice.edu. Please send suggestions/bug reports to steve@ion.rice.edu. Changes since 1.1: Uses Renderman instead of my 3d routines (this may actually be a bit slower in wireframe mode). Standard 3.0 help interface. Viewing angles redefined to be more "standard". Color works, but only in "shaded" mode (I think). Hidden surface removal (thanks to renderman). Since renderman does solid modeling, symbols have been replaced with 3d objects. Fixed scaling bug for small grid sizes. Density plot now displays data files much better. Printing of density plots improved. ----------------- Steve Ludtke steve@ion.rice.edu ludtke@physics.rice.edu stevel@alumni.caltech.edu
