| 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.

| The author says he appreciates a mention when you "steal" his formula, but "his" formula was already used on the amiga a long time ago. It might be useful downloading though if you're a starting 3d coder because the flatshaded 3d engine is very easy to understand. C

| An elementary graphics system. The functions are very base and it's a good idea for anyone coding graphics engines either to understand how those functions work or to be given higher level functions to work with.

| Examples and API for using the AWE32 - And people wonder why there's not much SB support. The information in the packet is contorted. I could go on this for days. Comments like /* main - here's where the fun begins */ are misleading. The fun actually began several hundred lines ago (starting at line 134). It's late. I'm not exactly bored, but this bit of code is frustrating. I wonder why CL even bothered. There are no technical docs of any sort and the code that is here *REEKS* of bad style. For extra frustration, I unzipped the file which had a self extracting .exe in it, which gave me 4 zips which when each extracted with the -d option finally gives me the SDK. Kneebiter - at 1:30 in the morning. Need more tea...

| | This is the ultimate chords/scales finder: all you're looking for DenzoGtr can find. This is not a scales or chords dB, but a powerful engine that you cam program for finding all positions for both scales and chords. There is no a fix number of choice: you can find 10, 100, 1000, 10000 position for each chord depending from tunig, finger positions, inversions and other parameters. In the same way you can search for 3 notes for string scales or pentatonic pattern etc. Also arpeggios are simple to find. Remenber that DenzoGtr is designed to be expanded with your own tuning, scales and chords. So have fun, Alex.
