(...) I'm up to my elbows in other projects right now, and I don't have much 3d graphics experience, but I am the local Java guru (1) and would love to take a look at it. I could give a hand with the UI and parser, too. Cheers, - jsproat 1. (...) (25 years ago, 8-May-00, to lugnet.space, lugnet.starwars)
