> It has occurred to me many times that if I knew about POV-Ray and Polyray in > highschool, I would've paid much more attention in calculus class. No kidding… Now I kick myself in the behind when I'd actually like to put that knowledge to work. Although I can't see POV-Ray on an Apple IIe, can you? (I guess that dates me pretty well, eh?) Eric seems to have come up with a nice approximation for the acceleration magnitude, now, what will I do about direction… I guess that approximation will be used for each component, really, so I should just be able to add 'em up. I know someone here at work that is an aviator. I bet he'd be intrigued by this… > Another problem I ran into is acceleration control. What exactly do you mean by oversampling in this case? Acceleration along the SPLINE I end up using may be a bit too much work for what I want to do here, but I may be hard-pressed to come up with anything realistic and interesting without it. Thanks for your suggestions… -Mark There are 3 Replies. Read action !
