############################################################################## Game::3D::Model - load and render 3D model files DESCRIPTION =========== This package provides you with 3D model support for your OpenGL Applications (currently only models with the popular .md2 file format are supported). For some background information, as well reasoning why this was developed and why in this way, browse to: http://bloodgate.com/perl/sdl/game.html See SDL::App::FPS for an example model-viewer, which shows MD2 models in an OpenGL window. Installation ============ * untar/ungzip the package (replace 0.01 with the version you got) tar -xzf Game::3D-Model-0.01.tar.gz * Check the signature. Download my key from http://bloodgate.com/tels.asc or from my CPAN directory. Then do in the build directory (where you unwrapped stuff): cpansign -v * if the signature verifies OK, proceed. Otherwise NOTIFY ME IMMIDIATELY. Do NOT INSTALL THE PACKAGE! Your system might get compromised! * Build the make file: perl Makefile.PL * Make the project make * Run the tests: make test * If some tests fail, please notify me. * If all tests pass, install as root: su [enter password] make install exit Now download SDL::App::FPS from CPAN and look at it's examples to see how to use this. Please send me test-reports, your experiences with this and your ideas - I love to hear about my work! Tels
