3D Real-time Morphing in OpenGL Demonstration Nov 5, 1998

--------------------------------------------------------

v. 1.0

This is the sample application that accompanies the December 98

Game Developer magazine. It is meant as a demonstration of

a method for 3D morphing in OpenGL.

To use the program, load in two OBJ models having the exact same

vertex count. The slider will morph smoothly between the two.

The function morphModel() does the main work.

Note: The normals should probably be normalized after the morph

but in practice it seems to work fine without doing it.

Write to me if you have problems or questions and check

the web site or Game Developer's web site for updates.

-----------------------------------------------------------

I know this code could be optimized for maximum performance

but it was written to be a clean example without a lot of

tricks. It should be easy to learn and build from.

Here are the details.

I compiled the code with Visual C++ 5.0. It has been tested

with Microsoft OpenGL, SGI OpenGL, Permidia 1 and 2 OpenGL

Drivers, Riva 128 (New Beta OGL Drivers), and Symetra Ultra FX Pro.

It should run on any OpenGL fully complient driver. This

DOES NOT include the mini-QuakeGL driver for 3DFX. 3DFX

OpenGL does not support OpenGL in a window so will not work

with this application.
