| | Interesting BFC finding

Well, I've finished an initially working implementation of BFC in my next-gen LDView code tree, and discovered that on my particular video card, BFC actually slows the rendering down. A test model renders at about 50 FPS with BFC handling disabled, (...) (21 years ago, 24-Jan-04, to lugnet.cad.dev)

(...) I could go for that. Simpler is better! Of course that means the METALLIC (or PEARLY) tag needs an argument to define the color of the embedded bits. If you want it to be the same color as the substrate, just use the same color code. Don (21 years ago, 23-Jan-04, to lugnet.cad.dev)
