You will need GNU make; it won't work well with any other kind of make(1). Once built, the executable is called rasterize. +Caveats: + +1. I happened to do Phong interpolation a little differently (i.e. not as +good) compared to what is described in the project handout. Instead of +calculating the lighting vectors in eye-coordinates, I did it all in world +coordinates. So I had to save the camera position (already in world +coordinates) from the scene file and transform each point vector of the +geometry by just the view matrix. Anyway, the results look a little bit +different than the provide images, so maybe I didn't do it quite right. + +2. Contrary to the specification, the geometry color is not overridden by a +texture map in this implementation. Rather, the geometry color is +multiplied by the texture color, so blending can work with texture mapping. + +3. The PPM importer doesn't handle comments, and the BMP importer is also +quite picky about the depth and color space, though importing will fail +without any useful explanation. + Known to run on: - * Linux 3.2.1-gentoo - * NetBSD 5.1.2 + * Linux 3.2.1-gentoo (x86_64) + * NetBSD 5.1.2 (amd64) * Darwin 10.8.0 (in the Mac lab) + * Win32 (tried with i686-mingw32-gcc)
