I'm planning on getting into the field of graphics for the first time,
currently I know very little. For my graduate school project, I intend
to develop a windsurfing simulator. I plan to develop it on an AT&T
6300 so that it will be DOS compatible. I plan to use a flight simulator
type organization, only using a windsurfing control panel instead of
the plane type. I have several formulas which I intend to use for
modeling. Some of the challenges I expect to run up against are simulation
of water, movement of three dimensional objects, other classic problems
(opportunities). In a copy of BYTE, I saw a booklist club inluding one
entitled "GRAPHICS FOR THE IBM PC", does anyone have experience with
this book? If anyone has any ideas, software, or pointers, please
send them my way.
