IPAS WHAT ARE THEY?
6 messages in this thread
I would like a COMPREHENSIVE GUIDE on what IPAS routines are and how they are
used. Also can I use then with POV Ray tracing program? I do all my animation
in Pov but I still like to know about other programs. I have seen 3DS but the
person using it does not know anything about IPAS. Productive comment would be
appreciated. Thanks 🙂 Andy
<< details of "What is IPAS?"..?>>
download IPAS.txt from section #9 "what's new" of the libs.
" " IPAS3.txt from section.." "
download vapor.zip and skin.zip from section #9 " …… "
ipas.txt is a list of all shipping IPAS' ipas3.txt is lecture notes
from Gary Yost's lecture on IPAS vapor shows an animation using a
vapor ipas along with a screen shot of the UI. Skin shows a screen
shot of the underlying skeletal system along with a skinned
animation.
For detailed IPAS programing insights, download all of the current
files in section #14, "Software Dev. Kits."

I wrote a description of the IPAS concept and a summary of what's
both included with and available now for 3DS, and some of what is
coming, as a Reply in the "3DS vs. Topas Pro" Thread in the 3DS
section. You might find that useful. But hurry, since CIS only
keeps messages for a few days!

Upload it to the libraries! It's a great summary!

If there are enough requests, I just may do that. Do you really
think it's "great"? I thought it was pretty good at best, but I'm no
writer.
I liked it!
