Objector v1.1 (FREEWARE)                                         February
14th, 1996

PURPOSE:

   The main feature of this program is that it is able to merge faces and lines
within an object.  
   This means you can eliminate triangulation in objects and hereby reduce the
object size!
   The program supports loading of objects in IMAGINE TTDDD format and
VIDEOSCAPE format.
   The program supports saving of objects in DXF format (AUTOCAD) and VIDEOSCAPE
format.
   So apart from being able to merge faces and lines it is also an object
converter.
   In this way, you can import Imagine objects into Lightwave in a very
efficient way for 
   faster rendering! The program includes a double buffered 3D display routine
wich shows the 
   object converted. 

   USE: Most people use this program to convert objects from Imagine(tm) to
LightWave(tm)

   Note: The TTDDD Imagine object format is generated by an external command
called
         READWRITE. This command is part of the T3DLIb distribution written by
Glenn M. Lewis.
         The E-mail address of Glenn M. Lewis is GLEWISPCOCD2.INTEL.COM
         READWRITE converts a binary imagine file to an ASCII imagine file, it
can also convert 
         this resulting ASCII file back to the binary format. 
         The archive wich holds this distribution is called T3DLib39.lha.

DONATIONS:

   Donations to aid future development on this program can be done by sending
   25$ US in an envelope to the address mentioned at the start of the program.
   This address should be the same as the one mentioned above!
   Don't forget to mention your NAME, ADDRESS, PHONE. 

   After I receive your letter I will send a floppy to that address containing
the last
   version of the program.

DISTRIBUTION:

   This program may only be distributed in the original archive OBJECTOR11.lha,
   wich holds:

      Objector11      
      Objector11.Doc
      Objector11.c (Source code)
      + some test objects

SOUCE CODE:

   As you see I was kind enough to include the complete source code of this
program in the
   distribution. You can modify and use it for your own personal use.
   It may NOT be used as a part of ANY commercial venture.

   You may include this original distribution on a non-commercial CD-ROM!

DAMAGE CLAIME:

   The author of this program holds NO reponsibility for ANY damages due to the
   use of this program. With other words 'use it at your own risk'.
 
FUTURE DEVELOPMENTS:

   - loading of Imagine binary objects (.iob).
   - loading and saving from LightWave binary objects.
   - an option to triangulate the objects, wich makes it possible to optimize 
     the merging process while using the MAXEDGES option.
   - the saving of TTDDD format imagine objects.
   - graphical interface
