ok, at last i can post again on the newsgroups. all my unfunny
comments have been held back. anyway -

heres my progress on dynamic tmd creation. Its not complete so it
hasnt got  a readme.txt and a link from my main page yet, so heres
what to do.

download    dynamic.zip    from
http://www.netyaroze-europe.com/~middex2/ftp

unzip it into its original directories

go into the CODE/LIBS  directory

MAKE the file

go back into the CODE directory

MAKE that file, then you have a choice, you can either,

SIOCONS AUTO, or
go back another directory and type RUN

For those of you interested in dynamic tmd creation, you may
appreciate my different approach to the creation. In other programs
ive seen, you list all the primitives you want in an object, then go
through them again, each time giving explicit vertex coordinates.

In mine, you set up all the vertices, colour and texture information,
then work through the polygons, one at a time giving a reference to
which vertex, colour or texture you want to use. To check the args to
send to the different functions, you can check out the end of
LIBS/tmd.h

This is gonna take a lot of documentation :)
