I'm also working on a project (a classic arcade port) with svgalib and the graphics library it comes with. I've had good results so far. There's a 3d demo file that comes with the svgalib package, so it's certainly possible to do one. I seem to recall seeing an engine called 'wc' -- I haven't actually looked at it, but you might take a look at the source code. It's probably at sunsite.unc.edu at /pub/linux/games/, but might be in a subdirectory somewhere. Hope this helps. -- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Jesse Smith, Esq.
