|
|
Upgrading my stock Apple G3/233 with a Radeon 7000 gave BrickDraw3D an 85% speed improvement. In pure OpenGL mode the improvement is 60% over the existing OpenGL advantage.

OK, it will probably take me a day or three to get all of this done. What do you mean "by turning on the debugging symbols in CW? I haven't read the CW manual or anything like it (again, I remind, I am only a novice programmer, got a degree in music (...) (24 years ago, 2-Apr-02, to lugnet.cad.dev.mac)

(...) Install macsbug. When it crashes, type 'stdlog'. That will create a log file called 'stdlog' (on the desktop on this machine). Then type 'es' to get out of the app that crashed. Sometimes if things are really hosed, you may have to type 'rs' (...) (24 years ago, 2-Apr-02, to lugnet.cad.dev.mac)

(...) I don't know where this ldraw folder came from. I thought it was the linux parts, but maybe I am wrong. Maybe it was the linux parts expanded on Mac OS X... I don't know.

OK, so I finally was able to do some tests on what I posted about earlier (ldglite on Mac OS 9 crashing with lowercase files). Well, lower case isn't why it was crashing.

I have thrown together a AppleScript Studio application that functions as a launcher for ldglite. It makes it fairly easy IMHO. (I was getting sick of trying to launch ldglite all the time) Those with Mac OS X, check it out at: (URL) (24 years ago, 1-Apr-02, to lugnet.cad.dev.mac)
