DESCRIPTION Wazp3D beta 39 : Alain THELLIER - Paris - FRANCE - (November 2006 to
October 2008) Wazp3D is a library intended to be compatible with the famous
Warp3D.library for AmigaOS 68040 

LICENSE 
GNU General Public License (GNU GPL) 

MOST IMPORTANT FEATURES o Compatible with the famous Warp3D.library for AmigaOS
68040 o StormMesa compatibility o The 88 functions from the latest
Warp3D.library v4.2 are presents :-) o Sources included (...so Wazp3D has been
ported to AROS) o Software only (=slow) : no need to have 3D hardware o Work in
UAE so can serve to test your 3D softwares inside UAE o Wazp3D can lie and
pretend to have a "perfect hardware driver" so the 3D-softwares will not fail
due to a lacking feature. o Full Documentation, faq and grabs at
http://thellier.free.fr/Wazp3D.htm o Unlike QuarkTex you can run multiple Warp3D
applications concurrently o Built-in debugger 

INSTALLATION 
copy LIBS:Warp3D.library TO LIBS:Warp3D.library.sav 
copy Wazp3D.library TO LIBS:Warp3D.library 

HISTORY 
Wazp3D was first created to test the "Tales of Tamar"'s 3D Map inside WinUAE.
I have no time left to work more on this Wazp3D project. So i release the source
& library 

VERSIONS HISTORY 
Changes from previous version 

Beta 39 o New option "Directly draw in Bitmap" that can be faster & more
compatible  in some case o New option "Display FPS" that count the frames per
second o New demo-program "StarShip" to use with Wazp3D (StormMesa libraries
needed)   http://aminet.net/package/dev/src/StarShip o The old option "Only Fast
RGB24" is changed to "Only TrueColor 24&32" o Full documentation also in french
on http://thellier.free.fr/Wazp3D_français.htm o French article on Web-magazine
"Obligement" http://obligement.free.fr/articles/wazp3d.php 

Beta 38  
o StormMesa Works :-)) (nearly 200 demos works now especially the impressive
Atlantis and GlutMech demos) o More compatible : some functions have been
debugged & cleaned o New option "Dump Object" to dump all as an .OBJ/.MTL text
file o New option "UpdateClearZ" to force a ClearZbuffer at each update (only
for Enforce) o New option "Debug Sepia Image" that colorize in red the part that
Wazp3D drawn 

Beta 37 o Four new games are working now: Alybox, D3gnop, Sopoblock,YAPMG :-) o
New option "Reload Textures" to load a new texture set (to change ugly originals
textures) o Library also builded without debugger (smaller version) o New option
"Hack ARGB" to convert directly ARGB textures data to RGBA (for Tamar 3D) =
economize memory o Obsolete option "Clamp UV[0.0 1.0]" is removed (textures are
allways W3D_REPEAT) 

Beta 36 o Nicer & a few faster with some new optimised pixels functions o
Texture-repeat works (Bzone) o Smooth Textures options o More compatible : Fog
or coloring works now on partially transparent faces (like trees in Tamar 3D) =
new pixels functions o Fog works better (not perfect yet) o New options "Use
ClearImage" & "Update At UnlockHardware " to enhance update for some programs
like gears(screen),Engine, sKulpt or TheVague. 

Beta 35 o Code clean-up and library enhancements from Gunther Nikl o "Hack1 tex
RGBA" works again (draw a textured-triangle as a Gouraud untextured one =
faster) o "Hack2 tex RGBA" works again (draw a textured-triangle as a Flat
untextured one = faster) 

Beta 34 o Brand new pixels functions that allow to render lighted textures :-)
so looks now very nice o Corrected a very bad bug concerning pixels-buffering. o
New Bug has appeared :-/ so 4D-clock & other StormMesa stuffs now crash... o
Library is smaller :-) 

Beta 33 o Full Documentation at http://thellier.free.fr/Wazp3D.htm o Corrected a
very bad bug introduced in beta 32 concerning memory freeing (beta 32 line 644)
o Corrected a very bad bug in W3D_UpdateTexSubImage o AROS port from Matthias
Rustler o Various pointer==NULL bugs corrected by Matthias Rustler o ClampUV (if
disabled allow texture_repeat) o Perspective correction (disabling) o Zbuffer
enhanced = ReadZSpan/WriteZSpan/etc... o Code CleanUp (no more ULONG used as
pointers to texture) o Bug fix in GetDriverTexFmtInfo : now if use UseAnyTexFmt
is ON then return supported o More compatible with new 3Dprogs
(BattleZone,Lamintro,4D-Clock,StormMesa examples, etc) o Support rectangular
textures o Bug fix in Alpha blending on 32 bits texture but no zbuffer 

Beta 32 o No more warnings when recompiling o Perspective correction (cant be
disabled) o 3D-Clipper works o Less bugs (even some few fatals one) o Fog works
(not perfect) o First Culling (CCW/CW face order) implementation (still bugged)
o "Hack1 tex RGBA" works (draw a textured-triangle as a Gouraud untextured one =
faster) o "Hack2 tex RGBA" works (draw a textured-triangle as a Flat untextured
one = faster) o "AntiAlias Screen" new & works (3x3 median per pixel) (slow) o
Library is smaller :-) o More compatible with new 3Dprogs 

Beta 31 (first public one) 
o New tracked memory allocation 
o Project's name changed to "Wazp3D" 

KNOWN BUGS o Fog still not perfect o Refresh display problem (sKulpt) o
Texturing distortion (Warp3D-Engine) o Texturing badly mapped for some rare
specifics UV values (Bzone) o SOFT3D_ClearImage (= clearing Wazp3D internal RGBA
buffer) dont use well the MinUpdate region (This bug is patched) 

TO DO IN THE FUTURE 
o A faster coloring function... (ie rewrite Pixels24M) 
o Make the fog works perfectly 

IMPORTANT Wazp3D is not perfect but it was good enough for me :-) This Wazp3D
binary is intended to be used within a very fast 68040 AmigaOS (= UAE emulator
with JIT like WinUAE) This Wazp3D binary is compiled for 68040-68881 (adjust
your WinUAE settings) Also need "full screen RTG" & JIT both to be activated to
obtain enough speed (also need picasso 96/cybergraphics and an RGB24 screen)
Wazp3D is NOT an UAE hack and so (should) not depend on a particular UAE version
But it only need much speed for his software rendering Some 3Dprogs need a big
stack to be able to run without crash (glsokoban,etc...)
