#IPAS Routines
The skinning process is something that's very doable with IPAS… If nobody
else does it, I've been thinking about how I could possibly get the time to
do it myself at some point next year. The wind process is also possible,
but tricky. Our explode.axp routine can simulate the effect of a strong
wind blowing things away, but not the subtle waving that you want.
Collision detection (a la Softimage method of detecting bounding boxes) is
also possible, between axp objects. However, shaped lights are not
possible with IPAS at this time. Martin's technique on shaping lights is
the best way to go right now.
