| Zed 3d - a document explaining the maths you'll need for 3d. Word and postscript formats of the same file. Zed has an attention to detail and a great way to explain all the math. I highly recommend this to anyone starting to make a 3d engine who doesn't know where to start (start with the math, not the polygon fillers, believe me! the fillers are trivial in comparison). See the bibliography for where to go next.

| Firelight's mod format description - The perfect text file for someone who is writing a mod player especially first timers. Assumes knowledge of programming and doesn't cover details of sound card specific issues, like setting up a DMA transfer or initializing the sound card.

| Source for a small fire routine. Doesn't actually work on my computer. To answer a question proposed by the author about size optimization, inc al is bigger than inc ax because intel doesn't have an inc /r8 instruction. inc ax is of the form inc /r16 which compiles to db 40+rw, where rw = 0 for ax, 1 for cx, 2 for dx, 3 for bx, ... inc al is of the form inc r/m8 and compiles to db FE /1 where /1 = c0 for al, c4 for ah, c1 for bl..., 05 for a memory reference.... See an intel document for more details.

| Mystify your fire. I half expected to hear the FM sounds from Amnesia to kick in. It's only one line with a *much* longer (and blured) tail, but still. Uses a Bresenham's line routine.

| Bumped glass routine. For TMT pascal. You might call this a bump map type effect. The difference I'm going to call is that bump map routines alter light intensity while lens routines change your position in a texture map. Interesting way to get the timer! :) For C users, that would be int *time = 0x046C. See a BIOS data reference for further details.

| Source for making a keyboard handler (int 9) and reading the keyboard from the handler - Doesn't tell you much, but is a good demonstration. I'd suggest for those needing to write a keyboard handler is to get a hardware reference for the keyboard and see what other options are available and how the code works.

| Another DOS extender option. I didn't test this for usefulness. I doesn't look any more difficult to learn to use than Adam Seychell's (sp?) Dos32 or Thomas Pytel/Charles Scheffold's Pmode/w. How well it functions is another story. Full documentation available. Comes with a tetris clone presumeably made using the extender. No source.
