Hi All,
Happy holidays.
I made LSynth's source code open from the beginning, in case someone better at
math than I might take a swing at it. It has never really made it past the
proof of concept stage. Feel free to make additions....
I just walked my son through setting up a computer from scratch, and
installing Windows98. I've got to get some Windows98 stuff debugged for LPub.
There are two changes I have planned for LPub short term (ha! a relative
term):
1. Reduces file sizes for most hoses, cables and rubber band. (the idea is
to scale the size of hose cross segment limited by angular resolution.)
2. Make *all* of the hose/cable synthesis attributes (hose end, and cross
section pieces) configured by a text file that is read at run time.
