Hi folks,

Just dropping this to the net for a user from Israel who
doesn't have newsgroup access.  Please drop me an email
if you have a response for him, and I'll see that he
gets it.  Thanks!

What I want to do with AVS is to create an animated view of the ocean and
few ships/vessels on it, disappearing/reappearing beyond waves. Sone kind
of simulator, actually.

So, actually, two different things:
o An animated view of something that will look like the ocean. It does not
  have to be very detailed; What it needs to do is to create the effect of
  moving waves.
o 3D models of military vessels, similar to the jet.geom in the AVS
  standard data files.

I know that AVS is not designed to create realtime simulators; However, I
would like to hear about similar things that have been done with AVS (or
on top of PHIGS/PEX).

Thanks,
Yossi (fax #972-52-542530, phone #972-52-593254).

PS  Would you be interested in sharing your AVS work with the
scientific visualization community worldwide via a short article 
and / or slides in an upcoming issue of AVS Network News?  This 
is the IAC's quarterly magazine made up of user contributed 
articles.  Thanks for considering this!
