--/ An entry for the /------------------------------------------------------
Assembly'03 4k intro competition.
--/ Featuring /-------------------------------------------------------------
Doo-Sabin subdivision and the "worst synthesizer ever".
--/ Coded by /--------------------------------------------------------------
hiteck / Unreal Voodoo <http://kempele.fi/~skyostil/uv>
--/ Special thanks to /-----------------------------------------------------
NinZa <http://kempele.fi/~ninza> for the spaceship model.
Cairbre <http://www.scenerychannel.com> for the tune.
Brian Raiter <breadbox@muppetlabs.com> for ELFkickers.
The GCC team for their excellent compiler.
--/ Requirements /----------------------------------------------------------
libSDL-1.2.
libGL, libGLU and libglut.
Hardware accelerated OpenGL with at least 24 bit z-buffer precision.
SDL-supported audio device (e.g. OSS, artsdsp under KDE, etc.)
Note that this is a must, since this intro uses audio for
synchronization.
--/ Trivia /----------------------------------------------------------------
This intro uses the Doo-Sabin subdivision algorithm for turning
simple polygonal manifolds into smooth surfaces. There are a grand
total of 3 objects with 24, 6 and 5 faces each. All in all, 67816
polygons are drawn each frame.
--/ For compiling /---------------------------------------------------------
First of all, you need the development versions of all the previously
mentioned libraries.
As for the compiler, I've found that gcc-3.2 gives the best results. If
you want to fit the executable in 4k, then it is the way to go (gcc-3.3
doesn't cut it). Otherwise, any gcc will do just fine.
Run "make intro" to compile the intro or "make final" to compile the final
compressed build.
The intro compiles fine with MS Visual C on Windows too, provided that
you point it at the SDL includes and link it with SDL.
