Hi,

Do you want this on the ftp site?

I think we can wait till the final one. (which will follow as soon as the last updates for 3.7g are released).

Hi Boris,

There have been already a number of fixes for B3D for 3.8a (as part of the squeakland release).

can you submit this fix with the [BUG][FIX][Ballon3D] header? Then the maintainer of the package can pick it up.

This is a test report for the 3.7 gamma full image (latest update: #5987, time stamp of the image in the zip-file: 27/08/04 20:55) used VM: Squeak 3.6.2 / Tea 1.9 VM (release) from Nov 12 2003

Balloon3D comes with a new problem: When you use hardware acceleration, you have clipping planes that differ from the ones that you have without hardware accelaration.

To see this effect, do this:

...

From the world menu, select:

-> new morph -> from alphabetical list -> B3DSceneExplorerMorph You see the well-known rotating cube. (pic1.png) When you switch to hardware acceleration, colors do not change (in a previous version they changed!) but you have a clipping box that cuts into the colored cube (as a result you can look into the rotating cube, which is also a nice feature.) (pic2.png)

In the Balloon3D demo, some examples come without color: B3DDemoSurfaces example2 Db3DemoSurfaces example3 and others. This is a well-known problem, that was reported and fixed earlier (but never on SqueakMap. I think Andreas put the demo on SqueakMap, and certainly I do not have the password and cannot change it.) The attached fix solves the problem. (It does not add a hardware acceleration button tot the window - hardware acceleration occasionally chrases on my PC with Windows 98.)
